You might have heard the phrase “you can do anything you put your mind to” countless times. As you walk through life, you might have thought that it’s not true and that there are limitations to what you can achieve. It’s not just a quote successful people throw around to make themselves relatable. Having a clear goal and doing everything in your power to reach it really is the secret to success.
One person who can testify to this based on his firsthand experience is the celebrity tattoo artist, Andrew Arteaga. He grew up in a world where drugs and gangs were all around him and he was influenced to follow that way of living. Whenever he wanted to take a break from his reality, art embraced him, and it has become his passion in life.
Twelve years ago, when Andrew just started working as a tattoo artist, the career was viewed by some people as an impractical career path. However, it was the one profession that he felt closely attached to, so he felt like it was his mission to prove to people that he could achieve success through it. He learned more about the craft and steadily climbed his way to the top.
Andrew used his past experiences to fuel his motivation for his passion. He wanted to escape the life of gangs, and he wished for a brighter future. Whenever things got too tough, he would look back and realize that he had been through many challenging times before. If he could conquer those challenges and his mistakes, there is no reason he couldn’t do so again.
Today, Andrew is the go-to person for tattoos for many celebrities and social media influencers. Among the many renowned figures he has worked on are Austin Mcbroom, GASHI, Jake Paul, Lil Skies, Nyjah Huston, Trent Williams, and Trippy Red. His influence also spans across social media, specifically Instagram, where he now has over 150,000 followers.
Looking at the success Andrew is currently experiencing, he can say that his efforts were not in vain. Even when the situation didn’t seem to be in his favor, he didn’t abandon the path he was forging for himself. Tattooing is what he was and is the most passionate about. Andrew has attained his success with consistency and dedication.
His success is global; Andrew now has bookings around the world. There is undoubtedly more in store for him in the future, and there’s no telling what awaits him. He’s confident that he will never surrender to an obstacle without putting up a fight. He has set his mind to overcome all challenges that may come his way.
