Global Renaissance
A global renaissance of young artists, entrepreneurs, and activists is currently on the rise. You will see young individuals taking different measures to get themselves out into the public eye. Some of these different avenues are by means of YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, personal websites, and other methods. Just look at the protests in Egypt about a year ago. These young activists utilized facebook and twitter accounts to get their messages to others.
Now let’s look at the group Mindless Behavior. The group discusses on the Mo’nique Show that the internet helped make them famous.
Recently, I had an older friend tell me “It’s just amazing how young people are becoming so active. It’s like a young people’s movement to conquer their aspirations.” I, author and entrepreneur, am so happy to be involved in this movement, which is very similar to the The Renaissance and The Harlem Renaissance. This is a time where we can show the world who we are by displaying our God given talents and other talents that had to be molded. These talents include, but are not limited to: writing, drawing, dancing, singing, starting a business, operating a business, and just being an inspiration to other around us.
This is the time to stop our long awaited idea of what we need to do and just do it. Like the saying goes“talk is cheap.” Talk often allows us to picture what we need or want to do; however without the force pushing us from behind, it’s just that; talk.
~Strive toward being more than just talk.
