I took a 4 month hiatus from this blog because for a while, like most people of this profession, I questioned whether or not I wanted to continue to pursue something that seemed to elude me at every instance. But with the doubt, frustration, and disappointments of this life there is a birthed resilience to the word ‘no’. In my opinion, that’s probably one of the most feared words in the English language but after 150+ people telling me ‘no’ for an opportunity, the one ‘yes’ makes everything worth it.
And that one ‘yes’ births a feeling of invincibility and a creativity that I probably haven’t been in contact with for more that a year. But with that yes comes a load of responsibility and expectation. So when your ‘yes’ comes, make sure you’re ready for it. Make sure you can handle it because there’s nothing worse than hearing a ‘yes’ and YOU having to tell the ‘yes’, ‘no’. Feel me?
Anyway, since that ‘yes’ I’ve made myself apart of some amazing things going in the city of Detroit
One of the first projects I’m participating in is with the University of Michigan : Detroit Design Center Detroit Detroit
I’m really winning right now. I almost forgot what it felt like to win.
