Despite the claim that he was born on the fourth of July in the year of 1900, baptismal records later confirmed that he was actually born on the fourth of August in the year of 1901. He was born into a poor family that broke up when he was still very young. His father left his mother for another woman and he and his sister often spent much of their time in the care of their grandmother or uncle, who was his mother's brother. It is believed that his first interaction with music came during the time he spent attending school.

From there his interest in music grew. At the early age of eleven, he was singing in the streets with other boys for money. Two of his friends also taught him how to play by ear and he was able to purchase his first musical instrument, the cornet, when he was loaned the money by a Jewish family who befriended him and who he had done some work for. It was when he started to receive lessons and training from a professor of music, who put him in a band that his reputation started to grow.

It was in 1918 when Louis Armstrong started to become well known. He had started to learn how to read music and was performing in a number of solos that allowed him to put in his own expressions through his music. He had his own unique sound that was well appreciated by the audience who listened to him. In 1922, he went to Chicago where he was invited to join Joe "King" Oliver's band. He thoroughly enjoyed being a part of this band, but his second wife encouraged him to leave the band in order to broaden his skills and build on his reputation.

After learning to play some classical music at some churches, he was invited to play with the Fletcher Henderson orchestra. From there his musical career continued to grow along with his reputation. Eventually, he was doing tours all over the place and at one point, during the 1930s, he was performing at more than 300 shows a year. He even appeared in films, on radio and on television. He was always a hard worker and loved what he did until he passed away in July of 1971.

By the end of his career, he was well known for his trumpet and cornet playing, and was known as a band leader, a vocalist and a music ambassador. He was also so influential that he is also viewed as the founder in much of the current music today. He was an extremely talented young man who found his passion in music. His hard upbringing was viewed more as inspiration than a hindrance for him and he used this inspiration to develop his innovative style; an innovative style that could be seen as a small revolution in music because of the change it inspired. Even today, young musicians are inspired by his work and his music is still played. He is yet another artist who will live on in history for his unique and innovative music.

Living The Extraordinary Life

You'll see that only 3 to 4 people out of a hundred have a definite vision or purpose for their life. And it's a fact that these people live an extraordinary and successful life.

A lot of successful people have varying opinions but they all agreed to what I'm about to tell you. You need to create a vision or a purpose for your life, a vision that will propel you to new heights of success, fame and happiness. A vision so compelling that you can't get it out of your mind. A vision based on your passion that will determine every action you take in your future. A vision so powerful that it will change your life and other people's as well.

So let's clarify your own vision to design and live your own extraordinary life.

You can literally attract everything you want by becoming an attractive person and having remarkable thoughts. Thoughts attract things into your life. The more powerful they are, the more you will attract.

Let's discover how to attract success, fame and happiness now.

So for our framework, we are going to use a model that was created about 20 years ago. This model involves several levels that you will need to know in order to be totally aligned and that will ensure your success and freedom.

The first level is the level of the vision or purpose.

This is the highest level.

Then comes the level of your mission, your role, your identity and self esteem

Third is the level of your beliefs and values. This is what is important in your life and how you can strengthen your beliefs to reach your vision.

Fourth is the level of the strategies you will put in place to reach your vision. What kind of activities you want to be involved in? You need to understand that to master yourself and reach your vision; you need to master your emotions.

The fifth level represents the actions you will take, today, tomorrow and the day after to accomplish what you're meant for.

And finally, the last level is all about the power of influence and the kind of environment you want to be in order to maximize your chances of success.

What is important to note in this model is that making a change at a lower level may, but not necessarily, affect an upper level. However, a change at an upper level will have a distinct impact on the levels below it.

This simply implies that the more powerful your vision, which is the higher level, the more successful you will be. The stronger your self?esteem and your beliefs in yourself will be.

The easier it will be for you to learn how to master your emotions, set goals and change your limiting beliefs.

This is powerful and this is the secret: defining and clarifying your vision and purpose will have the greatest impact in all areas of your life.

The vision becomes the focus and according to the laws of the subconscious mind, you invariably attract what you focus on.

Defining and clarifying your own vision is the first and most important pillar of a successful and happy life.
