So here’s the dilemma:

I am way too talented. Believe it or not, that can be an issue when you aren’t a multi-millionaire yet and can’t invest money into your latest project. I want to do too much and I want to explore too many things. Now I know what you’re thinking, You’re the writer aren’t you supposed to be the one giving me tips and advice for my everyday life? Why yes. Yes I am. But, that’s not the point here. I know I’m not the only one who is dealing with this problem because my family members deal with it too! Which is why I’m asking for your help. Both my eldest sister and my mother are some of the most talented people I’ve ever met. My sister is an artist at heart. She’s created beautiful sketches and paintings and when I was younger I thought she was going to be the next Picasso. She’s also very talented at styling hair, doing makeup, and designing fashion. My mother is similar in a sense. I’m convinced that my mom is Super-woman or Wonder Woman or Spider-Woman or even Catwoman. Whenever there’s a problem, she finds a way to fix it and does it in the most discrete fashion. So much so that you won't ever know there was a problem until after it's been solved. She is an actress, a hair-care professional (in my opinion), the CFO of our household, and the best therapist you could ask for. Now all of this sounds magnificent. If it were up to us, all three of us would own a multi-billion-dollar corporation by now investing in everything that we even have the slightest interest in. Our biggest dilemma though is staying on one project and making sure it gets done before moving onto another one. So my questions are as follows:

How do you take on multiple projects at one time?

What is the best way to venture into different areas of things you’re interested in?

Should there be a limit on what you dip your hand into?

How do you stay motivated so that your project gets finished?

Go with what your passionate about or go for what’s popular at the moment?

If anyone has any suggestions for books or just overall advice that will help me create my multi-billion-dollar industry someday, please feel free to let me know!

Love, Chantay

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
