Do You Have a Vision Board? |LOA|

Scene from The Women (2008)

The energy you put out into the universe, you will receive. Your words are very powerful.
And believe it or not we do have control over our destiny.

A few years ago I decided to put the notion that I can get what I want if I only ask for it (or seek and you shall find; knock and the door will open) to the test.

Getting a Life - Video Shoot / Film Screening / Album Release Party

As some of you may remember, a while ago I was in a video shoot for the Lil' Wayne Video, No Ceilings. My sister Buttercup was invited by DJ Scoob Doo and she asked me to come along.

Although it was very late at night, I had a lot of fun shooting the bbq scene on a rooftop in New Jersey. Portions of this scene were used in part 3 of the Nino Brown DVD series.

That was an experience in and of itself (see behind-the-scenes pics below), but it was also quite an experience attending the screening of Nino Brown 3.

[Sort-of] Wordless Wednesday - A Video Meditation

This is not my normal WW type of post.

But, I just wanted to share this with all of my Deep Thinkers.

I found this video on youtube a while back.

I use it to dive into meditation at the beginning or end of my day.

Hopefully you can find at least ten minutes of alone time to unwind or recharge.

You deserve some YOU time.

Don't you forget that.

Best,

Li

Wordless Wendesday - Don't Grow Up So Quik

Do What I Say, Not What I Do (The Straight & Narrow Path)

I remember being seventeen, sitting on my back porch in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico with my mom cooking in the kitchen, visible in the window just behind me. It was hot, and so I was in the shade listening to my CD player.

An old man was walking up my block stopped abruptly, turned to me, and started talking. I took off the headphones and he continued, “...you’re going to help a lot of people. I see you in a white coat, talking to a crowd. You’re going to help your people...” and then he broke off mid-sentence and walked away without another word.


um, come again?


I was shocked. Who was this guy?

I asked my mother through the window whether she heard what he said. In typical form she yelled, “Que?! Who are you talking to? Que paso?!” Thanks mom. You just missed the Oracle.

BlogHer'10 - Subway, Walking, or Taking a Cab

As a New Yorker, I rely on HopStop to get me from point A to point B. Not only does it have subway directions, but there are walking directions on there too.


If you're on a mission to see New York City and you caught my post on places to go in New York [need a refresher? click here] HopStop is the way to get it all figured out.


I'm a New Yorker... and if I'm not driving, you bet I'm on the subway (I don't do buses).


Since I'm going to BlogHer'10 and I am trying NOT to get overwhelmed, I created a calender of all the sessions I want to attend, and the parties where I plan to rock out. They're on my Blackberry!
