Zoom out from what’s not important. Zoom in to was is.

I want to completely disconnect from my phone and work on music for a month straight. I’m curious to see what I could create. I am going to plan that.

"I’m going to figure it out." That's the game. It never ends.

If you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything.

If your parents are alive, call or text them right now and tell them you love and appreciate them. Thank me later.

Righteousness over selfishness. Giving over greed. Gratitude over covetousness. Humility over arrogance.

Your vibe attracts your tribe. So, audit that vibe daily. And while you are at it, you should probably audit your tribe too.

Learn from others' mistakes. Invest in their lessons. Successful people pay for decades of knowledge to save time and avoid hardship. It's life's cheat code—what better way to spend money than on life-changing skills?

I can’t stress enough how incredibly important it is to share the same values with your romantic and business relationships. When the inevitable storms come, you want to be in the same boat.

Stop complaining; life isn't fair, but it's balanced. You get what you give. Understand this, and you'll be better off.

"Friend" is a title often given too freely. If they aren't lifting you up or pushing you to be better, they aren't truly your friend.

If athletes can break records with coaches, artists can create masterpieces with mentors.

An artist's brand is their story. Share it, and let others connect with it. What's your story?

Learn to create time, not manage it.

My faith will always be stronger than I am.

FINISHED IS BETTER THAN PERFECT FINISHED IS BETTER THAN PERFECT FINISHED IS BETTER THAN PERFECT FINISHED IS BETTER THAN PERFECT

To scale the heights of creativity, sometimes you need the compass of experience. As an artist, it's invaluable to have a mentor or coach—someone who's walked the path—to guide and enlighten your journey.

“Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us” Ephesians 5:1-2 NIV

A distinctive voice isn’t merely about pitch or tone; it’s a signature, a soul, a story.
