Finally - Jotees Trendz

Its been a stressful few months trying to set up the Jotees website. Lets have this picture here, lets have the contact list over there…I don’t like the picture viewer software, I think we ought to make our models show the back of the dresses also, I suggest we….blah blah blah…but finally am proud to say our WEBSITE is finally up and running! I tell you, it’s not been easy. Now I know what those biz moguls say when they say ‘It ain’t easy’. It sure ain’t.

And when you actually think that because you are a part of a team, it should make things a little easier, that you can pull ideas together and thinking doesn’t have to be too hard. Em….Its not necessarily so. Everyone on the team wants to have a say and have their own ideas implemented. Yeah my team encompasses my sisters but those girls got some strong characters going on. Sometimes I wonder if am truly their sister. I kinda await that news to be broken to me some day.... ‘you really are not part of this family’ type of news. Lol…But hey I love those chicas….as strong-headed they might seem to be. I still love them.

The months felt like a pack of disarranged puzzles, trying to jot down ideas, implement them and discussing them with our web designer. Poor chica, I was always breathing down her nceck but I really think I was far much of a better client than some she has had in the past. Yeah I got to give myself some props too. But ol’ girl did a marvelous job. Big ups to Icyworks. For your web design needs, y’all reach out to that chic. She does fabulous work o.

So the hard work paid off at last…we’ve been getting numerous calls and comments on how fabulous our website looks…how fabulous our designs are and the requests are mounting up everyday. So I sit here and am thinking what I have gotten myself into? But its fun…its exciting if you have the passion for it.

I don’t believe in words such as ‘Can’t’, ‘Difficult’, ‘Not’ e.t.c . You will hardly ever find them in my choice of words. I was chatting with a friend last night and I had to keep emphasizing the importance of staying positive at all times. Rather, use words such as ‘It’s a struggle, but I CAN get it done’, ‘It’s going to be hard, but I CAN maneuver it’. To succeed at a business, aside from having a passion for what you do, it’s vital you stay positive while doing it.

So here’s to years and years of success. It can’t be achieved without hard work though. I love work, I love to work hard and sometimes I see work as a means to get away from the craziness of life. When am engulfed in my world of work, it means blocking out everything. Sometimes I use work to hide away from issues I need to deal with. I know it could be wrong, but I say its better than some other measures used by peeps. But all in all, am just saying that am prepared to work hard for as long as I can.

And I can’t begin to exaggerate on how much work my wonderful sisters are doing. Its like there’s this drive, this force pushing us all. These chics are driven to succeed. Sometimes I feel I don’t know them, like they aren’t really my sisters at all. It’s a totally professional no-nonsense environment when we are at work. I can’t help but throw a smile at the corner of my lips every now and then when I think about what women of substance my sisters have become.

Yes o! We are born to succeed! And to cap this all, let me sign off with my favorite saying, mine and mine alone; ‘The curse is within oneself, the moment you know it, you break it.’
