There is a difference between loneliness and being alone. Prioritizing time for self is necessary to reflect on patterns of growth and to declutter distractions that take away from the clarity and impact of our messages. We cannot have anything to give to others when we have not started by giving ourselves time and space to grow. Solitude is the enriched soil for the fruits of spiritual and mental renewal.

Beauty catches the eye and stirs the heart. True beauty edifies us because it starts with the truth, progresses to goodness, and completes the journey to beauty. When we are struck by beauty, we should pause and look for the truth and goodness that reside within. I encourage you to build your legacy with a foundation of truth and raise goodness up to finish with a work of beautify art.

They provided mentorship to four young lads from Liverpool and helped elevate them into the world's most popular band. They helped them tell the stories they wanted to tell through their songs. Do you have a Brian Epstein or George Martin helping you tell your story? Or, are you helping others tell their stories?

Remixing engineers are artists who seek to distill the essence of the musicians and singers from a previously mixed song. The intent is to bring a fresh clean interpretation to a familiar work.

Storytelling is an art, akin to architecture. I cite the challenges DC Studios will have in their attempt to duplicate Marvel's movie success because of the design differences between the DC and Marvel comic universes. Bringing elements together is the beginning, but you must be able to structure relationships and use space appropriately to tell a story.
