Inspiration


With the New Year arriving quickly, I become inspired to change something or start doing something. I think nearly everyone has a New Year's Resolution. I don't want a resolution this year. I want a lifestyle change. This isn't a diet or some goal to save money. (Which I am already doing.) This is more than just that.
This is choosing to be happy.
One sick day I was browsing youtube when I came across a video by a woman name Kandee Johnson. Her look was intriguing so I had to watch. She had many tips and hints for becoming a makeup artist, which I had never really considered being as I am not very good at art. She made it simple and I couldn't stop watching her teach.
I'll take inspiration from Kandee Johnson, make up artist to the stars. She has worked on many sets and has a ton of professional experience with big time stars. She is an AMAZING artist with lots of ideas that would change your opinion of makeup and art. She has more than just experience. She has ability and she uses that to teach women and men who to change the world around them with art.
She has a youtube channel and releases many new videos monthly and sometimes even weekly. Kandee blogs on a near daily basis even though she is about to have another baby. *Congrats by the way* In her post "Don't Let the Storms of Your Past, Cloud Your Future"she writes, "I love you all so much...and I don't care what storms you have in your past...THEY WILL NOT CLOUD YOUR FUTURE....the storms only watered the blossoms in your life....and will make your future that much more beautiful with "watered" flowers!"
Her positivity is addictive, encouraging, and down right lovable.She has been criticized for every small decision that she makes, things she shares, and imperfections that she cannot control, but like the little-engine-that-could she keeps trucking on.
My New Year's lifestyle change is to be more positive like Kandee.
What's yours?
