“The greatest thing in the world is to know how to belong to oneself.”
After what seems like years of logo changes, website templates, and typeface, I've finally decided to officially launch my website and blog. Which means as promised, I am also going to start blogging. Yup! You heard me right. I know, is this even Remul? Since this is formally my first official post, let me informally introduce myself! My name is Remul, I'm 25 years old, and a few months before turning 24, I started my journey with Chapter R Interiors when I decided to take a Risk, and quit my job. I didn’t have an official plan, but I did have some money saved up, people to back and support my cause and tons of soul. I must say it’s been the hardest and most draining journey. But it’s also been the best thing I’ve done thus far. Chapter R is my story in this big ole book we call life!
Taking ownership of your life can be difficult, at least it was for me in the beginning. I had to overcome having so much control and authority at such a young age in a professional setting while gaining life experience. The older I became, I started to get a real sense of clarity that everything comes with a purpose. There was a Reason why it took me a year to officially finish this website/blog; it was all timing. And in this time, I had to learn and relearn some things; I had to understand where I wanted to fully take this company and the foundation I wanted to create for it. Therefore, my time was devoted to getting clients, budgeting for operational costs and finding a home base for the company (but that's for another post). Most importantly, I had to use this time to Relax in my being and Respect my light. I had to use this opportunity to get out of my shell and take OWNERSHIP.
The Goal for this website
I want this website to be a community, not only a sector for interior design & business, but also art, my culture, and life in general! Along this journey, I realized I am not only an interior designer; I am an entrepreneur and curating art, and design in our everyday lives is my passion. I hope you follow along with me. I'll be giving design tips behind the scenes stories; with my new business venture in construction & real estate and other adventures, I might stumble across the way. My goal is to keep myself in motion. Take a look at the new website, check out what I do and some of my projects!
