We recently connected with Nikki Montana and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Nikki, we’re so appreciative of you taking the time to share your nuggets of wisdom with our community. One of the topics we think is most important for folks looking to level up their lives is building up their self-confidence and self-esteem. Can you share how you developed your confidence?
I have been building both of those traits since I was young.. and will always continue to build on them. I usually am forcing myself through good or bad situations to build up my confidence …. or either its life itself is doing it. It’s like being self taught and just going in the directions of my curiosity and passions my whole life. That’s lead me into the unknown and places I’m supposed to be .. divine timing. I observe and ask questions from people who are doing what I desire to do or am doing, which tends to lead me around new experiences that require a new level and new energy frequency from me… so always leveling up mentally, physically, spiritually and emotionally.
I realize a lot of my confidence and self esteem starts with fear of the unknown and the feeling of the present moment …knowing I’m going to come out a whole new person from that gained experience. The overall idea of… “Wow I can actually do this …IM DOING IT….and other people see it in me too!”
I really started to FEEL confident when I turned 27.. like something clicked inside of me. I know who I am, my positives and negatives, my truth and I know my purposes and I’m not stopping ever, even when I achieve all my goals. Im hungry.
Let’s take a small detour – maybe you can share a bit about yourself before we dive back into some of the other questions we had for you?
I DJ, make music and am the creative director of my life I guess you can call it. I love creating amazing energy and getting people hype… especially through music. My ideas and passions come from thin air like magic and keep at me until I turn them into real life… so my mind is constantly filled with ideas on how to make music video visuals, music, writing lyrics, how to do crazy stuff during my DJ sets..all that. Being able to collaborate with people with my creative ideas is also like adding fuel to my fire… I LOVE it. I just go in the direction of ME, Montana and how I FEEL, & what make me feel 1000% unique and real. I have been working on building my DJ brand and getting my schedule fully booked out and consistently. In the future I’ll definitely be DJ’ing for dope artists and touring and just see where life takes me… manifesting all the good stuff.
There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
I would say my top 3 things that’s been the most impactful for me is: Knowing exactly what you want and hustle until you make it happen, Protect your energy / be mindful of peoples intentions and get around the people who are doing what it is you wanna do.
Another important thing is to learn the blueprint/ algorithm of of what is you want to do, the things required to make it, and anything else within your desired industry and use that as your own blueprint to help you excel faster and smarter.
I feel like society and life can really be like monopoly, a game. We play it over and over again, yet sometimes we don’t always get second chances at things.. so by knowing the blueprint for many things and using your brain and skill and who you know.. you can get to where you need to get. But In a genuine and positive way, always!
As I get older each year I really see the meaning of: Time is the most valuable thing we can never get back.
I wasted aA LOT, like some YEARS of my time worrying and fearful to even START! That’s so crazy to me now because I think… if I would have started back then I would have been so much further and would have helped my future and present self out.. but then again it could just be divine timing for certain things.
So my best advice is to JUST START. Start where you are, with what you have and who you know and HUSTLE. Literally create and live the life you wanna live EVERYDAY; from how you dress, how you talk, your friends, your bank accounts, your energy.. all of it. Don’t be the person who gave up on themselves and ends up living in a constant state of societal hypnosis… MAKE YOUR DREAMS HAPPEN… literally nothing is impossible to the mind who believes and makes it happen.
What has been your biggest area of growth or improvement in the past 12 months?
My skillset with DJ’ing and continuing to really cultivate a new frequency of myself. Like I really feel everything aligning for me and everything is always working out for me… my faith and hustle is just..wow. I love it here haha The confidence I have, the amazing relationships I’ve been building, the experience.. Im forever thankful for everyone and everything..its only going to get better too.
