“Excellence is never an accident. It is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, an intelligent execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives- choice, not chance, determines your destiny.”

Aristotle

Life is blooming in my heart. Everybody is changing, and I am also forever changing.

I have been exploring the paths that we take in our creative process as we discover our own role as artists. In this perilous journey, we either accept or change, we either stop seeking, or seeking never ends. I have also been thinking about excellence and the profound connection with habits: the ones that lead me to balance my mind, soul and body. And you know what? If we want to have positive changes, we really have to fight for good habits.

And in order to do that, we have to learn to develop good habits, and it takes self-discipline, courage and hard work if we want to reach a level of success. I knew those things where very important, but I became fully aware when I gained the experience of going through that change myself. When I was a child I always wanted to dance, but never could. The arrival of a new century made me feel confident about taking my first Ballet class. Among a class of semi-professional dancers, I was obviously the worst for a long time, even a “lost cause” like my teacher once said. Long story made short: It took me everyday during seven years, but I’m in a point where I can say: well, look what I can do, and, I enjoy it!

It wasn’t easy for me to learn how to develop good habits but I had the desire, the need and the curiosity to open that door. Also I had to prove myself I am fully and consistently commited with my work. Habits requires repetition, in the repetition they become fluid, organically part of our life. It’s in everyday task: evolution as a person. Even if I don’t know yet what it’s like to fully accomplish all of my dreams, hope drives me forward. Trying to forge our personal best on the daily basis.

Because we are spiritual beings, our spirit should be strong as our mind and body.

Art feeds our spirit and is being fed by our dreams at the same time. What is art for me? It’s a collective experience, and should be trascendental to heighten our soul. So if that happens, it is deeply connected whith the Evolution of Humanity.

As an actress, by entering the scene I am enabled to grasp my dreams.
The door is open into my dream world.

Thanks everybody,
