The Time is Now!

What Are YOU

Waiting For?

Experience has taught me that there is a "time" and place for everything and everything happens in its due time. I have learned that patience is a virtue and good things come to those that wait.

On the flip side, I have also learned that sometimes waiting can lead to procrastination and stagnation. Just as there is a time to wait there is a time to take action.

I am 32, married, and with no children (by choice). I have been asked so many times if and when I will have children...

My answer until now has been "We're waiting for the right time." Not even realizing I was already expecting...

One day somebody said to me "why are you waiting? It will never be the right time or perfect circumstances.”

That statement meant nothing to me at the time but today it hits like a ton of bricks...

This may seem totally off the wall but it occurred that the seed for 1st Love Records had been planted years ago and these years of preparation, challenges, and adversities have been like trimesters.

Seeds have been planted in you too...are you pregnant with ideas, dreams, and goals?

Are you just waiting for the perfect time?

What does your prenatal care consist of?

Will you abort, miscarry, procrastinate into a stillbirth or carry full term?

If not now, when is the right time to start your business?

Words of Wisdom:

  • “How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.” ---Anne Frank
  • “The leading rule for the lawyer, as for the man of every other calling, is diligence. Leave nothing for tomorrow which can be done today.” ---Abraham Lincoln
  • “Never Give Up” ---Tommy Lockhart
  • “Give birth to your dreams and goals”---Marenda Hughes+Taylor
