Hey, Creatives! BY CANDICE JOHNSON Life’s challenging enough, so I rarely find myself participating in social media challenges. When I do, it’s usually to poke fun at myself or make people laugh. Just for kicks (and because it took less than five minutes) I did the #thenandnowchallenge. Whew, Chile – when I looked at my first dance photo verses my NOW…I tripped out. I was just about to be embarrassed, but then I realized three things: #1 – Never be ashamed of a tacky beginning. Once your vision lines up, it’ll be long forgotten. Humility speaks. #2 – The road to success starts with a pebble, not the whole dang mountain. #3 – In spite of what others said about me, and even those things I told myself…I MADE IT. Because GOD ordained it. That’s all the qualification we need. I’ve looked at the remnants of my journey a lot today. The small beginnings set my soul on FIRE. Remember, the dream begins somewhere. …and it starts inside your heart.

Now take that and PRAISE.
