Before I met the young man in the photo, I overheard someone advising him to head to Los Angeles or New York, cities where he would have more opportunities to strike gold as a model. He smiled. I hope he follows through because having talent or a gift; in this case beauty and height, is no guarantee of success. People will recognize your gift but you wont lead unless you work at it. Get to the right place, connect with people who can make things happen, hone your skills, work hard, and shine.
