Change We Fear The Most Is Change We Need To Make

I decided to head back to NYC. 


I gave up my freelance business in Indy. 


I needed a way to dive into the entrepreneurial world and find my tribe.


When I first moved back home, even though I wasn’t there under the pretense I wanted, it felt like the first big step in reconfiguring my life and getting back on track.


A year later, I figured out my business model and have the foundation I need for exponential growth in 2022. 


Not in Indy, where I was working my ass off for 6+ years to build my network, platform and skillset, but NYC -- home. 


I always envisioned coming back home as this big success. I felt like I had to keep the pressure to make it on myself and shoulder it alone. 


Being home helped me realize I was wrong. 


I need God. I need support. I need family. I need friends. I need a tribe.


We all do. 


And making the move I’ve been dreading since graduating college was the best move I’ve ever made.


Change we fear the most is change we need to make.

Getting the chance to see the Spike Lee exhibit a second time before it closed was heartening. It reinvigorated my passion for documenting life, creating around the things that matter to me and reinsured my belief in my own "werk".

We are always in a rush. I've lived in the fastest place in America in New York & the slowest in Indiana, and for all of the socio-economic & geopolitical differences the people inhabiting these two places have one thing in common: the need to get on to the next as soon as possible.

Imagination is the key to unlocking a world of possibilities in life. It cannot, however, exist where scarcity thrives. The moment you believe you’re capable of making the best of a situation, you’ve already won. The moment you’ve accepted defeat, you’ve lost. The power of imagination is present in both instances.

When it comes down to it, man’s entire existence is based two things: Paradigm, how he sees the world & values, how he chooses to act in and upon it. Most men do not walk alone because they don’t believe  that their cause, idea or philosophy is good enough to walk a lonely path with.
