We had the good fortune of connecting with Gina Kenol and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Gina, any advice for those thinking about whether to keep going or to give up?
Few people may not win because they may not know that giving up plays a huge role in winning. Once you give up on whatever you are doing, you choose to fail. However, if you are determined, you build the endurance, you keep thriving, victorying will be the outcome. I am a writer. My next book is about how to not give up because I put together my enterprise on that principle and confidence.
Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I am a cosmetologist sometimes, a writer part-time, a businesswoman majority of the time, a public health professional full-time, and a supporter always. I love to share with the world, bits, and pieces of my life, some interesting topics, or ideas that can help others to be selfishly successful. I want to tell more about these books of mine, Selfishly Successful and Visionista Aujourd’hui that I published. Selfishly Successful tells the story of how I come from dreaming about success to finding my success. I was always been dreaming about a better lifestyle and yes my dreams are always big. I always was looking for the next solution and my next come-up. One thing I know for sure is that everything is created twice, in the mind first, then in reality. So, I envision the life I wanted and I make my plan. My next book Visionista Aujourd’hui is all about vision and planning. I am here to convince you that you and I do have something in common, which is, we are on a journey, to look for growth, for the next move. I am here only to promote Success!
Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I love life and most of the things it has to offer. Things that I love are traveling, shopping, great movies, food, music, culture, and being crazy about American football. Miami provides so much to do, I would start with eating out at different restaurants every single day, and I would do some water sports activities such as yacht-part and jet skiing. I would go to one of the dolphin games or the Miami Heat game. I would include some shopping from the local mall to the outdoor shopping mall in Hollywood or Pembroke Pines Gardens. Some nights I would go to the movie, the nightclub, or a walk in Wynwood or Bayside. I may also include a bike ride to Las Olas or South Beach. Then, I probably hang out with family and friends for a game of cards or dominos.
Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
There is an old phrase that states “it takes a village to raise a child”, this is true for me because everything that I have done or accomplished thus far has been with the help of families, friends, and even strangers. Therefore a shoutout goes out to all of them together with my coworkers on the South Wing 5 of the Jackson Health System and my niece, owner of WantSmokeMiami. My special shoutout also goes out to anyone from anywhere who is trying to be a successor at whatever success wellness he or she is working on. Being selfishly Successful is not just a mindset; it is a lifestyle.
