IT'S THAT TIME OF THE YEAR, YES, IT'S FALL, AND WE SHOULD ALL BE FALLING IN LOVE WITH JAZZY JEWELZ NEW FALL COLLECTION. JAZZY JEWELZ; 2011 FALL COLLECTION IS FILLED WITH THIS SEASONS MOST HAVE TRENDS. NOT ONLY DO WE HAVE WHAT THE MAINSTREAM DESIGNERS HAVE ; WE HAVE OUR VERY OWN TWIST ON JEWELRY TRENDS.
TAKE A LOOK AT SOME OF OUR MUST HAVES OF THE SEASON.
THIS IS JUST A TASTE OF WHAT'S COMING YOUR WAY THIS SEASON.
IN LIFE WE LEARN NOT TO MIX BUSINESS WITH PLEASURE. WHEN I SAY PLEASURE, I MEAN...DON'T GET PERSONAL WITH YOUR BUSINESS CONNECTS. ONCE THAT HAPPENS EMOTIONS COME INTO THE PICTURE, AND PEOPLE FORGET THE BUSINESS SIDE, AND FOCUS ON THE PERSONAL/EMOTIONAL.
IN ORDER TO CONDUCT A SMOOTH BUSINESS, YOU HAVE TO SEPARATE YOUR PERSONAL EMOTIONS WHEN DEALING WITH YOUR CUSTOMERS. AS I GO DOWN THIS JOURNEY; I'M SEEING THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE DON'T KNOW HOW TO "HOLD THEIR LIQUOR" FOR BETTER WORDS. THEY LET THEIR EMOTIONS GET THE BEST OF THEM, AND JUST GO OFF ON A TANGENT ABOUT WHAT PEOPLE AREN'T DOING FOR THEM!
KEY WORD: NOT DOING FOR THEM. SOMETIMES ISN'T NOT ABOUT YOU AS THE PERSON, BUT YOU THE BUSINESS PERSON. FOCUS ON THE BUSINESS NOT YOUR OWN PERSONAL EMOTIONS. AS HUMANS IT'S ONLY NATURAL THAT WE EXPRESS HOW WE FEEL, BUT WITH THAT YOU HAVE TO AVOID BRINGING THOSE EMOTIONS INTO THE BUSINESS. IT'S ALL ABOUT BEING PROFESSIONAL. YOUR ATTITUDE TOWARDS A SITUATION WILL FOLLOW YOU ON YOUR BUSINESS JOURNEY, AND GIVE YOU A BAD REPUTATION...NOW, YOU DON'T WANT THAT? NOW DO YOU? I DIDN'T THINK SO!
I SAY ALL OF THIS TO SAY, I'M ALL ABOUT THE BUSINESS, BUT OTHER PEOPLE ARE ABOUT THE PLEASURE (EMOTIONS). SO REMEMBER THIS, AS LONG AS YOU STAY IN YOUR OWN BUSINESS LANE, AND NOT TRY TO REAR OFF INTO SOMEONE ELSES LANE; YOU'LL BE FINE.
AT THE PROJECT ACCESSORY AUDITION, ONE OF THE JUDGES ASKED ME IF I WAS HUNGRY FOR THIS? I NICELY REPLIED, "I'M STARVING". IT'S EASY FOR PEOPLE TO JUMP ON THE BANDWAGON OF A CURRENT TREND, BUT IT'S HARD FOR A PERSON WHO'S BEEN DOING THIS TREND SINCE CHILDHOOD. IT'S JUST NOT AN OVERNIGHT SENSATION FOR ME, IT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN DOING SINCE I WAS A CHILD.
NOT TO KNOCK OTHER PEOPLE, BUT THIS IS WHAT I DO, AND GOD GAVE ME THIS GIFT FOR A REASON! IT GETS HARD SOMETIMES, AND YOU WANT TO GIVE UP, BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE NOT APPRECIATING YOUR TALENTS; BUT GOD KEEPS TELLING ME, I'M NOT THOSE OTHER PEOPLE, AND HE HAS A GREATER PLAN FOR ME.
AGAIN I SAY; I'M STARVING FOR THIS. THE HUNGRY STAGE HAS BEEN OVER SINCE I STARTED THIS BUSINESS IN 2007, I WANT TO EXPLORE ALL THE AVENUES, THERE IS NO STOPPING MY HUSTLE! I WANT SUCCESS AND I'M GOING TO GET IT. STARVING PEOPLE GO ON A HUNT FOR THEIR FOOD, THEY JUST DON'T SIT AND WAIT TO BE FEED; I'M GOING AFTER MINES AND I'M NOT LOOKING BACK.
WHEN YOU'RE DRIVING DOWN A HIGHWAY, AND THERE'S NO EXIT UNTIL THE NEXT 500 MILES, YOU HAVE NO CHOSE BUT TO RIDE IT OUT UNTIL YOU GET TO YOUR EXIT (DREAMS), SO UNTIL I GET TO MY EXIT (DREAM) THERE'S NO STOPPING ME, I HAVE TO KEEP ON PUSHING!
I'VE BEEN WORKING DAY AND NIGHT ON MY OFFICE SCAPE. WHAT IS AN OFFICE SCAPE, YOU ASK? IT'S AN ESCAPE FROM THE REAL WORLD, INTO MY JEWELRY WORLD. BEFORE I WAS WORKING OUT OF MY LIVING ROOM, WHY? I DON'T EVEN KNOW, I GUESS IT WAS EASY TO DO, BUT IT MADE THE REST OF MY HOUSE LOOK A MESS! ONE CORNER OF CLUTTER CAN MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE, SO THAT'S WHEN I DECIDED TO CREATE MY OFFICE SCAPE, 3 DAYS, AND A LOT OF ORGANIZING AND I'M DONE.
THAT'S RIGHT, I'M NOT MAKING ANY APOLOGIES FOR BEING THE DESIGNER THAT I AM, SOME PEOPLE MAY TRY TO MASK WHO THEIR TRUE SELF IS; BUT NOT ME. I'VE BEEN LETTING OTHERS DETERMINE WHAT I SHOULD BE AND I'M DONE WITH IT.
I'M BIG, BOLD AND JUST PLAN OL'FABULOUS, AND I'M NOT SORRY ABOUT IT. MY JEWELRY, MY CREATIVITY , IS AN EXPRESSION OF ME. AND FOR THOSE THAT DON'T GET IT, IT'S JUST NOT MEANT FOR YOU TO, AND FOR THOSE THAT UNDERSTAND...WELL WELCOME TO MY WORLD! IT'S A FABULOUS JOURNEY AND YOU'LL ENJOY EVERY BIT OF IT.
AGAIN, NO APOLOGIES FOR BEING "JAZZY"!
JOYFUL, AMBITIOUS, ZANNY, ZEALOUS, YOUR FABULOUS JEWELRY DESIGNER!
THAT'S RIGHT PEOPLE, IT'S ME JAZZY...GET READY FOR MY JAZZINESS, THIS IS GOING TO BE AN AWESOME JOURNEY.
GOD HAS SOME GREAT THINGS IN-STORED.
