Applied for another writing job today and when I clicked “send” I was so proud of myself.
Even though I haven’t been staffed ONCE in these past three years, I’m so glad I haven’t let it discourage me from continuing to build my dream (and my brand).

What’s even better is knowing I built a brand that people know and respect and most, I gotten to meet people and do things I once dreamed about.
That said, for folks who might be discouraged in this moment because of all the sh** going on...

Don’t let the “no’s” take you out. Take them, keep building around them and I promise that one day you will be so glad that you didn’t quit.
I know I am.

Funny story. Someone who told me “no” back in 2015 recently reached out to me and asked me to do some work. While I wanted to be petty, I turned it down because I was actually really busy in the moment.
Today, I got to interview/chat with someone I have long looked up to.
Five years ago I don’t think I would have thought I’d being doing a story with them in it.

So again, before this thread gets too preachy: please keep building and believing in you.
Because if you don’t, no one else ever will. And that’s real.
