Change

I think I am pro change. I just recently cut my hair out of impulse but also boredom and heaviness. I just moved from Chicago to Miami out of hope and motivation. I just left a job in project management to pursue one of the hardest jobs in advertising, become a planner. I left my home country when I was 15 to live in a town that was not even on the map. I left my pc laptop for an Apple one. I am about to leave the 20's behind. I have started to seriously consider the possibility of motherhood. I have just asked my brother for a financial favor which I would never have done that last year out of pride. I decided that I do not indeed like cats (I was under the impression that I did like cats when I first moved in with Carolina but Mushy just pisses me off). I have left my husband to live with a lesbian roomate. I have become more of an American than I ever wanted to.

Rick from Leo Burnett said that planners are change agents. We need to be comfortable with change and being the change agent. We have to not blink. We have to come from a place of Integrity. We gotta find who is that one person that is more receptible to our ideas and invest in him/her. We got to embrace tension and trust our instinct.

Had I trusted my instinct, my TrueBetty, Oil and Heineken projects would have had better creative. I need to learn from that without killing myself over it.
