She has made up her mind, turned on the ignition, and got on her way toward becoming a star. This can be your story. Let nothing deter you.

Why G-Dragon is the perfect male K-Pop star (Source: Xin msn)

Just as i was looking for some real inspiration.. I got it. Thanks XinMsn!
Sharing what I read with you here, hope you get inspired too ;)
Dreams do come true for those who are willing to work tirelessly behind the scenes for years and finally able to showcase their talents when their time is due.

I strongly believe that, "PASSION MEETS OPPORTUNITY = LUCK"
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!

  There’s just something about G-Dragon’s androgyny and couldnt-care-less bad boy attitude that appeals in this age of picture-perfect idols branded by pristine images. He speaks his mind and stays true to himself, which are ultimately qualities that will resonate and make him relatable to people from all walks of life. Unpredictable and always full of surprises (just like his ever-changing hair colour), G-Dragon oozes swagger with every move he makes. An artiste with a great affinity for the stage, he takes audiences into his world and keeps them captivated with his presence and charisma – whether he is in his whimsy world surrounded by larger than life butterflies or slouching in his specially-created embellished throne. Not many K-Pop artistes can stand on their own without their group members. In this case, G-Dragon succeeds in doing so even without the presence of his fellow Big Bang “brothers”. How does he do it? With lots of talent, charisma, and help from label mates as guest performers and world-renowned concert producers, Stacy Walker and Travis Payne, who have both worked on the late King of Pop’s This Is It concert. He's fashion forward. Meaning he doesnt follow trends. He sets his own style & trends. Be it men’s or women’s fashion wear, he embraces them all and rocks it with panache. In fact, he is his own. A G-Dragon fashion label, YES! A very strong BRANDING indeed! He makes his own music Beneath his pretty façade and good singing voice, G-Dragon’s boasts of a few impressive talents too: songwriting, composing and producing. He’s been at it since his Big Bang days in 2007 and has come a long way to establish a rock-solid reputation for himself in the Korean music business. On top of composing his own 'uniquely G-Dragon' songs and for his label mates, G-Dragon also wrote and rapped on the soundtrack for Mugler’s Fall 2013 runway collection. PS: He has also been working on an upcoming music album despite being on the road and urged fans to keep a lookout for it this August during the concert. Now, is there anything this guy is not capable of? So sexyyy.... Substance over style. Luve it! When asked, "how successful do you think you are now and how far you want to go?" He replied, “I think I’m on the right track, but I’d always want more and more [accomplishments]. I don’t know how much further I can go, but I’m always working hard. I will continue to make music I prefer. I know this may be selfish of me, but I hope everyone will still like me and support me. ” said G-Dragon. “I just hope the public takes to what I like,” added the ever-cool chap. He stays true to his “One Of A Kind” personality. He definitely has good taste, we reckon, for his work has been nothing short of fantastic and award-winning. This guy has a clear idea of where he is heading to. Speaking on his ideal collaboration partners, the singer-songwriter maintained that “it is not about the big names”. “To work together, we need to have common goals and direction,” he explained. And what we really adore about G-Dragon, is his warm and grateful personality in real life despite the “aloof feeling” that he gives off.

USAIN BOLT: Feeling The Fastest Man in the World

LUCKY? 'Cos I never give up.
GIFTED? 'Cos I never take shortcuts. 

Inspired by his words...

What a legend Usain Bolt is.
Athletes always succeed in pushing my limits. ;)



http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=trueview-instream&v=ha8EK0wSuWo


The mistaken assumption used to be that Bolt simply needed to turn up, mug for the camera with some dance-hall steppin', and then run and win, before reaching for his arrow-shooting victory pose. "What can I do?" he says. "You can only do your work and let people believe what they want. I work my hardest because I know what it takes to be a champion. I know what I want and I'm focused on what I need to do to win."

after enduring unfamiliar adversity, he has become mentally stronger. "Yeah, definitely. It gets annoying but, after a while, you get used to people making their own comments and just judging you. But I'm always positive. I know what I want. I know what I am capable of. But it makes you stronger when you have to work so hard to get better and you have to go through all these trials. So I don't stress. I just focus on what is necessary."

"it's always good to lose. It wakes you up." (The fastest man in the world also has his darkest moments.

Was Bolt shocked to suffer successive defeats to Blake? "You can't say it's a shock. For me, it's good to have your eyes opened wide. To have ups and downs so you can really evaluate what you did wrong or what you need to do to get back where you need to be. It was extremely good it happened at the trials so I could refocus.

"My hunger is always there," Bolt says coolly. "Things happen throughout the season that throw you off sometimes but you have to learn from your mistakes. I just need to put things in place to make sure it doesn't happen at the Olympics. I just try and get over it and get my confidence up to a level where I'm comfortable at the Games."

Bolt was not physically at his best, and struggling with a tight hamstring, but he refuses to excuse his successive losses in Jamaica. Great sprinters, after all, require great rivals to lend gravitas to their legacy. 

"I've definitely worked hard for these Olympics," Bolt says. "Really hard. You have to put a lot behind you and it's all about sacrifice. You must sacrifice a lot."

The Master Key to Success

The Master Key to Success:

"Never give up."

It's the ultimate test of true grit, determination & passion.
If its what you love or what you want, you do it no matter what.

No matter what.

I know how much I get paid at my previous finance job, whether I had already got ACCA degree in my pocket & years of relevant finance experience in my CV, it still doesn't matter.

I know how much I can be, do & have more more more when I'm doing WHAT I LUVE.

Even if you are paid less or nothing in the beginning or in the middle, you will take it!

Like on the search for your very own lipstick color, it can be a search among the million choices, there is one that belongs to you. Only you.

Like looking for the right man, you need to have faith & keep looking. Use your thoughts to attract him.

Like Thomas Edison, he took 2000 steps to invent the light bulb. No less.

There will be a turning point where your earnings will shoot up like a shooting star.

It's always darkest in those moments just before dawn break.

At the end of the tunnel, there will be light.

Keep walking.
Keep painting.
Keep giving.

Soon you will reach your destination.
Soon your masterpiece is completed.
Soon you will start receiving.

MORE MORE MORE!!!

Hope this inspires you!

LUVe,
Gel
