It's a culture shock to go from obscurity to notoriety in a flash. Its more to it than talent and money; its pressure, stress, enemies, critics; you have to develop relationships and a team. There are all of these things that go along with taking a leap and following your dreams.

It is possible for you to get a grip on the thing that used to have a grip on you. And instead of it controlling you- you are now controlling it.

You have to knock on doors. You can't keep your dreams a secret. You have to put them out there on display and people can say whatever they want but keep on pointing your actions towards your dreams.

But I think my mistakes became the chemistry for my miracles. I think that my tests became my testimonies.

I think it is important that we rebuild an atmosphere of forgiveness and civility in every aspect of our lives.
