If you click on the link to my blog title it takes you to the lyrics to "Empire State of Mind." I know the song has been out for a while, but I think the lyrics are really cool. I'm going to the Jay-Z concert with my best guy friend in November, and saw his performance on the VMA awards last week with Alicia Keys - AMAZING! I like how he says he's the new Sinatra. Do you think he just dreams about this stuff, or is sitting in traffic and is like 'yea - I think I am!' And you know what? I really don't think too many people would question him on this. He is a musical God. He has been "retired" for a few years now, and has produced 4 new albums snce then. Again...AMAZING. It just shows dedication. A person who has the passion behind what they do, no matter what it is, is sexy.
I have been at my new job for almost 3 weeks now, and it feels like I am doing the work of the entire team I was on at QuickArrow. But you know, I kinda feel like Jay-Z. I have that dedication to put my all into what I am doing. I feel pretty blessed to have found a job where the people I work with are nice, the environment is great, and the job itself is what I want to be doing. In today's economy not a lot of people can actually say they are doing what they want to be doing. A lot of people end up settling on a career path, which makes you fall into patterns and routines that you don't really like. Begin making choices that you want to make - I always have, and that's what makes me happy. Happiness is everything.
