How to Surround Yourself With Greatness
I am often asked by people, JDOGG how do you surround yourself with greatness. The secret is to get to know people and reach out to them and get to know of there successes and watch what they do. With the advent of social media it is easy to follow successful people who you admire and see what they are doing in their personal and professional life. Many times it is just the fact that you are provided opportuinities that you make. For example a few years ago The Fort Lauderdale Film Festival was celebrating the 25th Anniversary of Fame and the Newpsaper I was working with at the time, The Happy Herald was a sponsor of the event. As a result of the sponsorship I was invited to the screening, where Irene Cara would be appearing. I was ecstatic just to be in her presence then a big surprise occured the PR director of the event came to me and said”Irene can give you 15 minutes for an interview.” I went to my car and retrieved a pad and conducted my first ever celebrity interview. Asigned photo now hangs on my wall of fame of Irene Cara. This along with others I admire hang on that wall to help me surround myslef with greatness.
This photo hangs on my wall to remind me that I am destined for FAME.
