Alicia Keys: Persisting

Davis gave keys the creative freedom and control she wanted to be her self.

She has her own skin care line and candles

She writes alot of her own music

She's been performing since she was 13

It was a lot of sexism and ageism because she was so young and a female

The music she was coming out with wasn't all that good so she redid the music

Micheal jackson is a a very hard-working, global singer and entertainer but from the outside, looking in one probably wouldn’t even know how much work was put into achieving his goals.
Michael Jackson was mentally and physically abused by his father at a young age when he wouldn’t get a certain move, right, while performing, which is very traumatic for someone so young, Michael even stated “my father was a management genius, but sometimes I just wanted a dad“ but Michael took this as a way of discipline for himself to get better at singing and dancing. Michael was very particular about his performances, and he did not stop until they were 100% perfect “ I didn’t have time to play outside with the other children. I was stuck in the studio for hours.“ and that was a young Michael saying that. In conclusion I feel that no matter the circumstances I believe if you try to look at things in a different light, or “thinking flexibly”. You will achieve your goals with fewer bumps in the road like Michael.
