Help me raise funds for new Fashion Magazine with Marco G of Vogue Magazine

Image
 Hello everyone Otatade Okojie here welcome to my blog, and welcome to a new adventure. Fashion, enterprise,community,growth,network and engagement, we want a magazine that includes culture, and creates access. The audience has spoken and thats where i come in. Former journalist, photographer and disabled entrepreneur, i pressed on , i stayed strong, and i kept going. I deal with a disability called epilepsy, for many times it had me sitting hungry on the bench, terrified as i watched others fulfill their potential.  I remember when drive and ambition finally overtook fear when it came to my disability, and i realised in order to be a success our paths, our routes have to be different. We have to be distinct, not copy, not follow the masses. A unique print, like a signature. Therefore i bring to you a signature magazine, with your assistance. This dream will not happen without you, myself, Marco and the rest of the team need your help, and the benefits for contributing are a plenty. Fr

Schooling through Pain

Image
Use your pain , disappointment, anger , trauma, to fuel your passion. No matter what do not allow yourself to be swallowed up in otherpeoples excuses and your own, because its easy to be caught up in the mesh. In the chaos of i could have been, i could have done, i could have seen. Fail and learn from those failures. Get active on the strategies and implement them, do not let the sun set on another day without a fight for the future you want. Remember it is not about money anymore, it becomes more than that. It becomes more tha  just a fight for cash and display, you are no dreamer, these castles you will not build them in the sky, they have a foundation, therefore you must fight. It is easy to give into the negativity, cruelty and malice of others, it is easy for self destruction to overwhelm you. Yet i am someone who battled with finishing my whole life, partly because of ill health, partly because i accepted the excuses that were made for me. Let us fight to finish together, to

Time and the investment

Image
Each day is an investment in the future. Do not be tricked by others with a mindset locked in the stone ages, people whose dreams are buried in sand, and whose tongues leak acid. You are here on Earth , you have time to invest and change your future. Something amused me recently a young man who had far more opportunities than I had, access, no disability, was convinced because I'd built a network, I owed him an opportunity. Life doesn't owe you shit. I used to walk around thinking that life was fair, if you were nice others had to be nice if you were kind others had to be kind. I spent my whole life over compensating until people pleasing hurt too much. I was investing far too much time in pleasing others than I was in pleasing myself, each time I Made bold attempts at kindness, the trauma from the cruelty and disappointment of others left a sour taste in my mouth. Yet I was forgetting to celebrate those who had been there, those who had fought side by side with me, family

Pieces of my puzzle

Many heroes and heroines of any success story will tell you they have failed at many points in their trial, wept tears, had their hearts sink to the bottom of their shoes because life felt so impossible. The dream remained fiction, illusion, story, and no matter how much they sweated,bled, and wept pain, nothing seemed to come to life. Success seems at times to be a postcard from another universe, and each time you hear the dialogue of others chorusing about their glory, you are filled with a stone in your throat. Take heart, my father always said the vision may tarry but it will surely come to pass. Have a checkpoint, let that checkpoint give you hope when everything else is falling to shit. Faith,belief,and where I failed many a time was consistency. No one has the right to tell you it is impossible when men walk on moons, when rockets leave Earth, when millionaires are made in new continents every minute due to insight, understanding, knowledge and development. I find myself fr

What is Success?

Fight to believe in what you can do when the whole world is tearing you down. Hello folks redebony here, i sat a challenge for myself an objective and i am yet to accomplish it, the dream is over, it is now time to do the work. Yet in doing the work, we find ourselves inconsistent, frustrated, warn down by others ego and insecurity. This journey is not about them, this journey is about you, and it will take as long as it takes. In the mean time protect your mental health, fill your mind with positive influences, fail over and over and over again, and laugh at your own misdemeanors. To accomplish your goal you must be the best of yourself and at times the worst of yourself. You will face so many selves in that busy looking glass, an angry reflection besotted with a need to champion other peoples illusions of success. Dont let a mouse teach you how to be a human, dontlet other people feel you with their grand illusions. When i set out to accomplish many of my challenges there was th
