Sad Story…

Obviously I haven’t updated in a while.

 

And this hasn’t been by choice.

So the news is: GLAM is going on a hiatus.

 

But when it returns in January 2010, everything will be brand new.

 

Have a Happy Holidays! :)

In The Spotlight: Russian Roulette

Rihanna is back. New Style…in fashion & in music. Take a listen of her new single off of her upcoming album Rated R, slated for a November 23rd release.

Russian Roulette – Rihanna

 

This was not what I was expecting after watching the promo vid, but we all know Rihanna is queen of surprises. This song was penned by none other that Ne-Yo.

The only thing that sets me off a little are the lyrics. I know Rihanna has fans from many different age ranges, but I do not think this song (a long with a bunch of other songs out) are fitting for young teenagers. BUT at least she’s preparing us for what seems like will be a dark album, hence the lyrics and the album title “Rated R” . We’ll see, I love Rihanna either way.

 

How do you feel about the new song? Do you think it will do well?

Making the Dream: Be an Optimist!

Something I’ve learned in one week:

If life is too fast and you begin to wait for it to slow down, you are only bringing yourself down. If life is too fast, then you need to run fast. If life is beating you in the race, re-evaluate as you begin to sprint. There’s no going back, there’s no time to stop. There’s only room to grow, and keep it moving.

I considered just ending the post like that, to let that sink in. But I do want to share a little of what’s going on right now.

• I’ve started a business.
• I’m learning how to brand.
• I’m finally letting my schedule become a habit.
• I’m going on vacation ( a mini one) in two weeks.
• I’m learning something new about SOMETHING every.single.day.
• The new additions to my blog will be up within the next few weeks, and I’m so excited to share with all.
• You may want to pay attention to the new additions, because I heard that there may be free prizes involved…

Daily Quote: Are You Opportunistic?

“A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.”- Winston Churchill

You can have the emotion of fear and still fear not. You can accomplish the task even if you’re shaking. - Joyce Meyer

"Drip by drip, the bucket fills up. Consistency is the key. It's ok to start small and build up." – Anonymous

 

Will you let your fears and insecurities determine your future? Will you allow your failures to wash away your pending success? Why? How very RARE is it to see a successful person that has made it to the top without failing, messing up, being afraid, etc. If Bill Gates let his insecurities about being a nerd and geek affect him, do you think Microsoft would even be known? What if Oprah let her own background affect her dream & drive…What kind of role model would we have for our aspiring talk show hosts ( Maury, Jerry Springer?) ?

Don’t give up.

Daily Quote : Moses Hadas

 

“I have read your book and much like it.”

-Moses Hadas (1900 - 1966)

 

Not many words. But packs a great message. When you, and other, look back on your life and accomplishments, will it be like reading a book for second time? Can you guess from memory what’s going to happen in the next chapter? Does is seem really familiar to the next person’s book?

It shouldn’t. I’m all about originality. Whatever your field, whatever your aspirations, I hope that you will take the challenge to be different. Why are so many successful and unsuccessful? Because they stepped out and brought something new to the table, something different. And you can as well.

In everything you do, be original. You want your book to be a one-of-a-kind masterpiece.

In the Spotlight: Effortlessly GLAMorous

It’s only recently that I have begun to pay real attention to Beyonce’s style. Starting her career as a member of a girl group, your identity can easily be lost. For the years after, as she began her solo & acting career, there’s a kind of blossoming that we notice as Ms. Knowles-Carter finds her own sense of style. She’s come a long way from matching glitter outfits and latex pants. I describe Beyonce’s style as effortless and elegant. She’s never raunchy, or even flashy. Every time you see her, you see class. Here are some of her looks from relaxed to evening :
