My First Blog!!!

Hi, welcome to my first blog! My name is Micah Martel; I’m 23 years old and I live in New York City on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. I work in corporate retail as a merchandise buyer, buying men’s accessories for a major department store. I’m also an agency represented runway/print model. And now, I’m a blogger too.

I love my life! At this very moment, I have everything I could ever want. I have wonderful friends and family, a great job, a great apartment; I’m healthy and I’m happy. Of course, each day, I want and expect something more. Each day, I consider what else I want out of life and I take the necessary actions to get it. I think I should take a moment to explain the title of my blog: “When Good Things Happen to Pretty People.” It may sound a bit alarming at first; perhaps it sounds shallow or vapid. But let me clarify that I believe that anyone can be pretty, and I believe that everyone can achieve great things in their life. I believe that every person has the choice and the ability to achieve or obtain anything they want. Life doesn’t just happen to me. I choose to love my life. I choose to be successful and attractive. And you can too! Please don’t misunderstand me. I certainly don’t claim to know all the answers and I know that I’m far from perfect. But I can honestly say that I have an amazing life, and I’m the only person responsible for getting what I want.

I’m so grateful for everything that I have, and I want people to know that it’s not because I just happen to have good luck. The reason my life is so amazing is really quite simple: I focus on what I want in my life, and then I take action to get it. I hope that by blogging and sharing my personal thoughts and experiences, I can help others to take initiative to get the things they want, so that they too can love their lives as much as I do. I also think that by sharing my knowledge and helping others, I too can continue to learn and grow to be happier and more successful.

I’ve decided to take the “Ready-Fire-Aim” approach for writing this blog. Rather than over-plan or over-analyze the exact direction I want to take with my writing, I’ve decided to just go for it. Don’t worry, I’m not just writing aimlessly, I know that my goal is to get as many readers as possible and to share my knowledge and experiences to help and inspire people to get what they want in life. But I’m open-minded and flexible, and willing to shift directions as necessary in order to make this blog a success. That being said, I really want anyone who takes an interest and reads my blog to tell me what they think. Comments, questions, and suggestions are welcome and encouraged. After all, I’m not just writing for myself; I’m writing for YOU, the reader! It’s my goal to write a new entry every day. So if I’ve sparked your interest, please come back tomorrow and the next day to read on, and find out more about what I’ve done, what I’m doing and what you can do to get everything you want out of life.

Xoxo
