Myself
(page 6)
I often quote myself. It adds spice to my conversation.
By forgetting the past and by throwing myself into other interests, I forget to worry.
My goal is to be able to provide for myself and not have to worry about the daily expenses. I do want to be able to benefit from my work and make a good living, but I love it so much that I would do it for free.
I'm learning a lot about myself being alone, and doing what I'm doing.
I'm not trying to be sexy. It's just my way of expressing myself when I move around.
My life motto is 'Do my best, so that I can't blame myself for anything.'
To live for results would be to sentence myself to continuous frustration. My only sure reward is in my actions and not from them.
I like to be myself, and I don't pretend. For instance, I don't dress up for occasions; I am what I am.
I'm not in the best shape, but I want to prove to myself I can do something that seems insurmountable and inspire others by showing them no matter where they are in their fitness goals, they can do it, too.
When I am myself, I am happy and have a good result.
I'm grateful to God for His bountiful gifts... He gave me courage and faith in myself.
I'm proud of myself. I could break and go get all this plastic surgery and get my nose fixed and get lipo or do whatever, but I haven't chosen to do that because I know I'm a great person. I'm pretty damn hot, if you ask me.
I like to consider myself an actor who just happens to be Hispanic.
When I write a goal down — and I truly write them down — it becomes a part of me. That's a contract that I sign with myself to say, 'I don't care what happens — I'm going to stay on this path. I'm going to try and see this through; I'm going to give it my best shot, my best effort'.
I respect everybody, but at the same time, I carry myself with an aura that demands respect, too.
I was not a good student. I did not spend much time at college; I was too busy enjoying myself.
I do, indeed, close my door at times and surrender myself to a book, but only because I can open the door again and see a human face looking at me.
I live half the year in Nigeria, the other half in the U.S. But home is Nigeria — it always will be. I consider myself a Nigerian who is comfortable in the world. I look at it through Nigerian eyes.
One thing about me is that I'm very much like the Black Madonna. I love to reinvent myself and that's because I am a very free person.
When I have a chance to go back to my village, I always remind myself where I came from.
