New Year. . .Same Me

It's 2009. With all the hype about it, I figured it would be way more exciting.

It seems everyone wants to change who they are in '09. Transformations abound. Is it weird that I want to stay exactly the same? I mean, growth comes with every situation you experience. But it seems that people on trying to make total 180s. From a Beyonce to a Sasha Fierce. Yet I want to stay me.

I'm comfortable with who I am. It's taken a lot of time & energy to get to a place where I can honestly say, I like me. I like the way I look, think, communicate, feel and live. I wake up every morning just glad to be me. I put in too much work to go around becoming a different person.

In '09, I'm focusing on the people that surround me. I want to have people that can help me have the right experiences. People who are focused on their goals [whatever they may be] and becoming a better person but not a different person. People who can accept that I come with flaws, but see that my strengths outshine them all. People that love me for me, period.

I also want to grind more. I became a little laid-back and satisfied with where I was at, which is wrong. There is no rest for the hungry. You grind, grind and then grind some more. I need to start going out to more events, writing more, doing more internships, probably go back to Canada. Just do more. I'm setting the bar higher for me and my wonderful group of talented individuals. '09 is the year for the people who deserve more or just better. Let's get it.

thanks for hitting up the blog.

I don't think its people wanting to change themselves, but how they act, which makes them who they are, at least thats how i see it.

you gotta stay who you are cuz 2009is nothing more but a different number on the calender.

and grinding is a must. As I say, gotta stay on the grind like teeth (if that makes any sense to you, lol).

happy new year's

PS: work wasn't all that bad on New Years'. gotta get that money man.
