By: Alexandra F. Figueredo


The best artist has that thought alone which is contained within the marble shell; The sculptor's hand can only break the spell to free the figures slumbering in the stone.
~Michelangelo*

What's the story behind Sculpt Your Life From Sketch to Masterpiece(TM)?
"Never permit a dichotomy to rule your life, a dichotomy in which you hate
what you do so you can have pleasure in your spare time. Look for a situation
in which your work will give you as much happiness as your spare time."
~Pablo Picasso

I'll admit it! I used to be one of those... a banker! Yes, I worked in the banking industry for many years, as well as in the corporate business and marketing environment for nearly a decade. Despite what you might think, I really had a dream job: a company I enjoyed working for, coworkers I enjoyed working with and a salary and benefits I enjoyed. Despite all this, I didn't enjoy my work. I felt like I was just coasting by, just going through the motions.

I mean, I used to sing and perform in musical theater performances since I was a little girl. The arts are my true passion. Why on earth would I decide to study business and finance and work in banking? Was I crazy? No! I realize now that I was taking the "safe" route. Many of us go through a similar path at some point in our lives...a path that deep down we know is not right for us. Are you traveling down that path?

It was around the time that I started feeling physically sick and agonizing about going to work that I became "divinely inspired" by a higher power. It dawned on me that my purpose and mission in life involved philanthropy in some way, as well as my passion in the arts. I had reached the point of no return and I knew that I needed to leave my "safe" job. It was terrifying for me, but it had to be done. Fulfilling my Purpose--or my Masterpiece Purpose as I call it--was more important than anything else.

When I finally left my cushy corporate job to start my own business in the arts, I believed that it would be an easy transition. Why not? I used to advise wealthy entrepreneurs and professionals and was able to analyze their financial statements and business plans better than they could. Well, reality hit and it didn't take long to realize that I was wrong! After nearly a year of dwindling savings and practically no sales, I found myself feeling desperate! This is the first time I have ever known what it felt like to be a "struggling artist."

So in a matter of a year I went from working in a profitable, but unfulfilling career, to a fulfilling, but unprofitable business. How could this be? There had to be a balance to living a life of passion and purpose and earning income! Or was I destined to live in one extreme or another?

I made a lot of mistakes. I felt like quitting, and many times I almost did! There were even moments of panic and stage fright, as I had developed a severe fear of public speaking. Instead of letting these mistakes and fears cripple me, I learned from them and flipped them into opportunities to grow and improve myself. I knew I had to set myself back on course toward success.

Luckily for me, I continued on with the faith that I must fulfill my purpose no matter what! Along the journey to my Masterpiece Life, I discovered things about myself I never knew. For example, I never thought I would create wonderful programs such as Sculpt Your Life From Sketch to Masterpiece(TM) that would help millions of people all over the world become successful professionally and personally. I never knew that I would beat my stage fright and actually perform at speaking engagements in front of large audiences. I never knew that there was a way to actually make money doing what I love to do.

I feel so blessed that I have figured it out, and that's why I feel compelled to share my story and guide you to achieve your Masterpiece Life!


"SO, WHAT'S IN IT FOR ME?"

"It had long since come to my attention that people of
accomplishment rarely sat back and let things happen to them.
They went out and happened to things."
~Leonardo da Vinci

You already saw a remarkable transformation that I made from being a "struggling artist" back up toward success. In fact, I far exceeded what I ever imagined working in the corporate world. Through my "failures" I learned to pick myself back up, be persistent and take action. I didn't just sit back and let things happen... I went out and happened to things!

Throughout this book, you will tap into the incredible minds of many remarkable Master artists that have existed throughout the centuries, through their inspiring quotes and stories. I also discuss the best modern principles and strategies that exist today....strategies that I have uncovered as tell-tale signs for success, no matter what your life's purpose or craft is. In this Program I reveal how you can achieve the mindset that has proven to lead to success for others in the past, so that you can be on your way to creating your Masterpiece Life. This program guides you through how to take your thoughts, passions and true desires, along with all your fears and doubts, and turn them into your life's mission, and still earn a living doing what you love.

I can't promise you that you'll earn a certain amount of income, or obtain a certain client or reach all your ultimate goals. Only YOU can achieve those things. If you're committed to your purpose and goals and dedicated to taking persistent action toward reaching them, then there is nothing that you set out to do that you can't accomplish! That is truly leading your Masterpiece Life!

"What if I'm not an Entrepreneur or Career-Minded Person"

This Program is for anyone who is truly dedicated to achieving their “highest self", as I walk you through exactly how to do this, in a way that is most relevant to you! You can choose whether you want to achieve your highest self in professional or personal terms, or both. You can choose to lead a life of magnificence at work or at home or in any social situation.
