Progress

Progress

  So this year my new years resolution was simply progress. To do more, to be, more and just aspire to be the best in general. The best way to put it is in 2015 I want to level up, if you will. Last year was a year spent finding love and really seeing it for what it is. Many things were learned in regard to that but at the same time more could have been done in regards to myself. Just knowing that I can have it in my world and allowing it to come was beautiful. Im not totally opposed to love this year but, I just feel like when trying to juggle a relationship along with the many other responsibilities of everyday life sometimes you aren't really putting your all into your passion. This year will be different. Better yet this year will be great and it will be the year when I come into self and come into greatness. The year where the most will be done and put into place. This post is dedicated to progress both for me and as well for you! Be great.  Until next time. Be cool but be you. Peace and blessings.

Photo Series 1: Triumphant Queens

 Queen. 

I'll start this post with a question and it is what do you aspire to be in life? Better yet who do you aspire to be in life? I feel like no matter who you are you must think highly of yourself.  Speaking for myself I aspire to be a king and it is one of the missions of Ordinary_cool to help encourage the mindset  that speaks to the king or queen in you. With that being said for my first shoot I just want to highlight some of the queens in my world that stand triumphant through it all. While there are issues and ills that us a males face living in todays world, we can't play down what females deal with and go through daily that is much different from our struggles. With that being said,  I bring to you Queen. A photo series of them for them. My hopes for this series is to help inspire queendom for all females because honestly speaking all females are queens but the reality is not all of them realize that and their actions show it. So without further ado here are the pics.

To be or not to be?

To Be or Not to Be
Wassup guys. Hope all is well.  Before we get into the casual talk I wanna ask you a serious question. To be or not to be? I'm not exactly sure if when shakespeare said it he was implying how I take it so ill reword that question for you guys. To be or not to be great? Of course that's a rhetorical question but I think it is indeed one everyone should asks themselves honestly.  If the answer is not to be great then you should change your views and strive to be great! After all life is short and who are you and I to settle for mediocrity in this world. Shoot for the stars! Or better yet the moon! I say all of this because I've been missing from my blog for a bit and in that I've been settling for mediocrity in not chasing my dreams and fulfilling my potential, but  I'm back and this time I'm here for good! I've been kinda busy lately with school, work and just life in general but then and again who isn't. Like they say you gotta make time for the things that are important. The world needs me to blog lol. But all jokes aside for this look I decided to go a little rock star with it and give it some twists. I really like the end result and here it is! Tell me what you think below.
