It's Never Too Late: Embracing New Beginnings at Any Age

Peace, peace, everyone. It's your girl, Sequoia Blue. Hope everybody doing all right out here in these streets.

Today, I want to talk about how it's never too late. You know, when I was growing up, you know, when I was fully focused on just music, and that was it at the time, because it's all I thought I could do, people used to always tell me, oh, if you don't make it by 25, then you can't make it with music. Now, and this is what whatever making it means to you, because making it doesn't mean anything to somebody. Somebody might not want to be famous with music.

Somebody might just want to get a recording studio and just put music out online. I mean, it's just whatever. At the time, making it meant fame because I thought fame meant money. But I know nowadays that it doesn't always mean money. So, you know, at that time, I was impressionable because I was younger. And looking back, I'm like, that's not true. You can actually do whatever you want at any time you want. There's no rules to this thing. Everything's made up.

So if you want to start at 50 doing music, you can. If you want to start at 50 to become a lawyer, you can. There's this thing in society that wants to put a cap on you, especially women. And I still think it's fair. And I think we have to keep pushing to let people know that you can do anything at any time because time is going to go by anyway. And right now, time is going by so fast, you can't even keep up with it. So you might as well just start doing something you want to do.

And anybody around you that want to tell you you can't do it and want to talk some salt into your game, then you need to get rid of them. You got to cut people off. And I know it's just a tough thing, but I don't even care if it's relatives. You got to cut them off or at least put some distance in between you. And, you know, and also just jealous people, like be aware, you know, see who is just jealous and trying to pull you down because maybe they didn't

get what they wanted. And like, maybe they're too scared. So they'll try to tell you, oh, you're too old to be doing that. No, you're not. You're not too old. You can do anything you want. You know, and health matters. Do I think people should, you know, start working out in your 20s, start eating right? Yes, because it helps longevity. It helps you be able to have more energy to do things as you get older. But it doesn't nothing stops you from doing anything you want to do.

And I'm going to tell you the story about I forgot her name was this lawyer that killed herself maybe maybe two years ago. Chelsea, I'm trying to find her name, but, A lot of people probably know the story, but if you Google Chelsea, the lawyer that that killed herself, it was a crazy situation because she said that she felt like she was getting too old and stuff like she was getting older and she was only 32 and she felt like she wasn't where I guess she wanted to be.

Now i think somebody in history probably whispered in her ear or something and and said something and she's like oh you know maybe maybe they're right whatever and she took it upon herself to jump from a hotel and and kill herself but not hotel it's actually her apartment i believe and i was like dang only 32 i mean she was gorgeous she had she had she was intelligent she just had a lot going on for her you know and I think she won I think she won Miss America too but I forgot

which year but she she was just a talented lady she she had ignomatic vibes about her you know she'll get on social media people follow her she had a big following but somewhere down there she was worried about getting older you know she was depressed about that and I think that's sad you know I do think we attract what we keep thinking about I mean I think we can all live a great life until we're out of this thing. I mean, what's the alternative? You know, dying young? Why not want to grow old?

What's the alternative? I mean, it doesn't make any sense not to want to grow old because that means you're living. You get to live and see the earth. You know, there are things that we all don't like about what's going on. Yeah, but you still get to live and who wants to die young? So, you know, it's one of those things where I feel like maybe if the right people was around her, she could have been here today.

So there's other stories probably like hers that we don't even know about, but that one was a big story about two years ago.

So I say that to say just just go after your whatever you want to do It don't matter what age you are time's gonna pass anyway, And get away from the naysayers anybody don't understand you at least take some some distance away from them So you can focus on what you need to do, And just know that the universe is conspiring to help you make it You know everything is whatever you put out and you and you want it If you want it bad, you will get it. Sometimes things happen overnight. No.

Can it happen overnight? Yes. But just know that if you give up, then you're not going to get it. That's just the bottom line. So just keep going out there. And make sure you just keep a positive disposition as much as you can. Look at the mountains as one thing to tackle because life is not going to be cherries and puppies and kittens. You know, you're going to have things that's going to happen where it's going to knock your plan out of place.

You'll be like, God dang, I was I was doing this and now I got to do this. Now I got to pay this. Now I got to talk to this person. Don't worry about it. Don't let that bring you down, because if you do, then you can't get to the goal. So. Like I said, just keep your head on the swivel, keep going, try to practice stoicism and stoicism is just staying out of your feelings all the time. It's okay to get into your feelings and understand it and adjust it.

You know, I'm not saying don't understand your feelings, but stay out of your feelings at the same time. So you can focus on what you need to do because we only got one life and this dimension, you know, and that's that.

So everybody stay safe out there. I've got some more cool content coming up. I thank everybody for rocking me thus far. If you can subscribe and share, that'd be great. That helps the channel grow and it helps people get to know about me and what I'm trying to do. So thanks everyone. Peace.
