Gia's World ... Achieve It!!!

This past Saturday I had the opportunity to sit on a panel honoring young people who had achieved academic excellence during the past year.  The panel was extremely diverse and included an actress/singer/entertainer - Gia McGlone.

I will admit when I first met Gia,  I was struck by her beauty.  In no time, I would soon discover there was much more than beauty to this woman.  You see, by the end of our discussion I was fascinated by Gia's passion for her talent and desire to use her gifts to inspire others to excellence.  She shared a story with me that speaks to the love that drives her creativity, her passion, and the way she nurtures her own Inner Winner. 

One day Gia found herself between jobs and feeling somewhat blah.  Count yourself blessed if you do not know the feeling.  She wanted to be productive, and do the work she loved, but it was not happening for her in that instant.  As is sometimes the lot of an actor, she was out of work... for the moment.  The low feeling that creeps in when we are not using our talents, may have been hovering nearby ready to capture her inner winner, drown her spirit, diminish her confidence, and deplete her energy.  However, Gia is amazing.  She decided to create a cartoon that would inspire others.  Armed with no technical skills, but a lot of passion and desire, this brilliantly talented entertainer, created Gia's World.

Gia intrigued me because she is as wise as she is young. Wise enough to want to use her gift to serve and inspire others.  Wise enough to use her gift for a higher purpose than her own desires. And brilliant enough to figure out a way to branch into a new frontier (she created the cartoon for YouTube with little or no real technical skills).   Gia does all the singing in the video and I invite you to view Gia's World, a reminder for how we might achieve our goals.
