Everyone has their time...their moment in time, their time for change, their time to evolve as a human being. As you may have learned from my first entry, "The Shannon Experience", I am currently within the process of searching for my moment in time, have gone through a personal change or growth, and am in the process of evolving as a defined human being.
Many of us have been dealt a good hand and at some point have managed to not play the cards right. Many of us continue being handed opportunities but we do not know how to go about them. In order to win the game, we must learn to understand the game. This is why I am back in school. I am trying to acquire my Master's so that I can better understand the game and learn to overcome the obstacles that come my way. I plan to continue to learn and explore and give back to world.
How am I able to give back to the world? Well, in my previous entry "Ashton and Demi's Fight Human Trafficking", I mentioned the small ways in which I have been able to give back positively. What I have yet not mentioned is the fact that I left my internship position at the "The Shannon Burke Show". I loved being a part of that show. Contrary to what most believe about Shannon, he is a man with a good heart and a very intelligent one may I add. I guess my leaving was a blessing in disguise. I have parents that are often ill and there had been times where I would have to tend to them and the family owned business. I did not see it fair to the show, so I resigned.
It was time for me to really seek employment versus an internship. I already acheived my first challenge of leaving a job I could not tolerate with great pay to doing something I love for no pay. This is a valuable lesson I learned and I am certain that Robert Kiyosaki, aurthor of Rich Man Poor Dad would approve. After all the first lesson is to "never work for money". If you have not read it, I recommend you do for a better understanding of my thoughts as well as a window of opportunity for the creative mind. For many personal reasons, I had to search for a job with pay but one that I would enjoy. I have vowed to never do anything I do not enjoy ever again.
As a young girl, I had a vast interest in a career in the entertainment industry. I was a young and talented little actress, singer, and dancer. I recall taking modeling and finishing classes. I remember winning first place in a state school chorus competion. I will not forget my acting in a school play and my performance with story telling skills. I will always remember the way I would be able to look at something and draw it on call. I can't forget about my poetry, songs, and novels. Looking back, I had many talents and dreams to be pursued. Although, I know it may not be too late to pursue them, I do feel I may be able to help others acheive their dreams.
I am now a Model Scout for Emerge Talent. Not only do I understand what it is like to model and aspire to be so many great things, I understand the disappointment and hard work that comes with that process. I have always had a great gift for selecting the top picks in Beauty pageants. I know what people are looking for it seems. So why not put my gifts to work for others? I intend to scout fashion models and help make their dreams come true. I guess you can say I am emerging my talents with Emerge Talent and my models.
