Thinking For A Change - MUST READ
October 21st, 2007
Wats up people. On this success journey that I’m travelling, there is nothing more fulfilling to me other than to inspire others.
The one thing that successful people have in common is Good Thinking. Those who embrace good thinking as a lifestyle understand the relationship between their level of thinking and their level of progress.
Good thinkers are never at loss to solve problems, they never lack ideas that can build an organization, and they always have hope for a better future… A person who knows how may always have a job, but the person who knows why will always be his own boss.
Over the next few weeks, I will post (from the knowledge that I’ve acquired over the years) 11 Thinking skills every successful person needs.
How to get started in creating goals for your success journey
R.O.A.D.M.A.P
R. Recognise Your Dream. Everything starts with a dream. It’s an expression of your life purpose and determines what it means for you to reach your potential. If you can articulate your dream clearly then you can create a map for your dream.
O. Observe Your Starting Place.
A. Articulate a Statement of Purpose. (Philosophy of travel for your success journey).
D. Define Your Goals. Activities or accomplishments that you plan to achieve to fulfil your purpose develop your potential and help others.
M. Move Into Action. Thinking is easy. Acting is difficult. To put ones thoughts into action is the most difficult thing in the world. The trick to acting on your goals is getting started. Be not afraid of going slowly; be only afraid of standing still.
A. Adjust Your Plans.
P. Point to Successes and Celebrate. Your aim is not to achieve all your goals but to improve constantly.

Frieze Art Fair
October 21st, 2007
Went down to the Frieze Art Fair the week before last. I managed to get VIP press passes courtesy of Par2D2 (Thank you sir).
On whole the event was pretty interesting. I was inspired by a few pieces (Some off the wall shit that the general public will not understand). Pieces that make the viewer question the definition of Art. More pics after the jump.

“To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.”

TMagic New Artwork
October 11th, 2007
Just finished some corporate work for MTV. Went to the studios today to reveal the new piece to Jasmine and the crew. They absolutely loved it. While I’m on subject of artwork, I have some new pieces coming soon. Trust me, I’ve been working overtime. The concepts and artwork (sketch work) is already done for my next exhibition in 2008. There will be a new print available for sale very soon.
Let me know your thoughts on this piece…

T.Magic Mania Pt.2
October 10th, 2007
So, the other night I was checking all my messages on Myspace and happened to open up one of the pages to this (Pic below). I was like “Woooooooooooow”. I was actually in shocked for a second. Lost for words. The fact that I have inspired someone to permanently mark their body (for life) is scary but at the same time is very flattering. When my boy Anthony (aka Face Of T.Magic aka The Jizzle Lol inside joke), first got his ‘Hope for the best, prepare for the worst’ and then ‘Success Is My Destiny’ tat I was overwhelmed by a feeling that was indescribable. The thing is, he (Anthony) has been there since the inception of T.Magic so it was a bit more understandable to see somebody within my immediate family get a tat. But someone that I don’t know!!! That’s crazy. I feel it is definitely a blessing from God. So I would just like to take this time out to say Thank You to all of my Life Supporters.
