While designing the Helix LED hoop I kept the project a strict secret from all but my best friends.  This allowed me to focus on creating the hoop with every pattern, feature, and ounce of quality that I envisioned.  There were no compromises in any way because of some artificial schedule, popularity, or promises.  It allowed me to treat the project not as a business, but as an amazing digital art project that I can now proudly share with others.  Because the hoop is so "over-the-top", everyone that has used one can feel this artistic energy that lives within the Helix and it inspires them as well.  Don't make hoops; make art.  Be inspired.  Inspire others.  It will show and you will have something everyone can be proud of.

Hi Jade,

Thanks for the response. Can you be a little more specific about trying new things? What new things have worked for you?

The biggest tip I have is to not doubt yourself. Don't think yourself incapable of making things happen. I have seen others including myself become consumed in doubt and it can hold you back. I finally fought the doubt and here I am! :)
