Better to seek change by inspiration, than out of desperation.

Listen to the desires of your children. Encourage them and then give them the autonomy to make their own decision.

The trouble with most of us is that we stop trying in trying times.

Music became my focus. At 13, I was jamming with my mates. At 15, I was playing clubs.

God isn’t waiting on our memo. He is waiting on us to focus enough on Him that we get His memo.

Life in general you gotta believe in you…. you live your life for you, you do what you do for you, because the moment you start to live your life for others you’ll lose yourself within that. Focus on what it is you want to have. Go get it.

I can’t concentrate in flats.
