Naima Model Behavior

by Naima Mora

Music artist, celebrity model from America's Next Top Model, performer, and now author Naima Mora debuts “Naima Mora Model Behavior” as part of her new Model Life Series - hoping to inspire others to recognize their true potential and achieve their hopes and dreams. This book shares inspiring inside stories and perspectives from Naima on topics from living consciously, overcoming adversity, healthy living (eating, skin care, lifestyle choices), and pursuing your dreams regardless of the challenges.

This book is especially excellent for young and young adult readers, as well as fans of Naima or the ANTM series, who seek intelligent inspiration from an authentic fellow human being searching for and achieving a career where one can and does use their voice powerfully. Also her insider's advice is honest, rare, and in depth.

Readers can watch the music video "Never Cease Us" from her band Galaxy of Tar, in the iTunes version, and listen to Naima chapter by chapter narrate in her own words.

About the author

I am a writer, music and recording artist, a performer, and a model. But what I really am is a young person, like so many, pursuing my passions in a world made harder by the inevitable growing pains we all face. I am always learning along the way and sharing to inspire you to do the same. Thank you for visiting, for subscribing and becoming a Model Citizen!

Subscribe to my weekly feed (at my website) and get fresh articles on topics inspired by the subjects of my book; follow me on Twitter, and get inspirations from me and guest posts from experts to help encourage you to live a more fulfilling life. Don’t forget to share your stories in the Fan Corner or check out the latest in Goings On and My Music.

This is my first book, and the first of the Model Life Series. I wanted my blog site to be a place to help my fans and readers connect with me and allow me to connect with them, to exchange positive, candid perspective and to offer support about being the healthy, authentic person we all have the ability to become.

Choosing to live a healthy lifestyle, and to pursue your dreams is not an easy journey, but it is the most rewarding one we’ll ever take.

Not a novice to the spotlight or the weight of other people’s expectations on my shoulders, I gained early notoriety from the world of high-stakes modeling and entertainment. I knew from the very beginning however that my life and purpose in the world was greater than an image on a page. My life has meaning, and much of that meaning has to do with helping others.

I am multi-cultural, have many talents and aspirations, and take what I experienced on my season 4 win from America’s Next Top Model as gifts which helped me ultimately write this book, and inspired me to share my inner-most thoughts and wishes with you.

In the end I wrote this book for you, because I truly believe that blending all our gifts and abilities in healthy ways is where magic happens, that every day is a gift to celebrate, and that we can do anything we set our minds to if we do so intentionally and with conscious purpose.

I hope you enjoy my book, my music, and that you will share your story with me, too. I am so grateful for you!

Provacative and inspiring memoir. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is becase I wanted her to go a lot deeper when she spoke of her pivitol moments. Its a quick read with beatiful writing moments and stunning photographs.

Naima Mora is truly an inspiration and a beautiful soul. I hope that she will share more of herself through her writing in the future. That being said, my only issue with this book is the fact that it contains quite a few misspelled words and grammatical errors.

As the publisher of this title - Model Behavior - I rate this book, of course, highly, but would have even I didn't publish it.

This the first book of Naima Mora's Model Life Series (TM) - we were privileged to be able to partner with Ms. Mora in her literary endeavors. The series is a very ambitious project that will offer iBooks, print editions art-house collectible versions - and opportunity most of all to publish fan and reader stories. Her online writer's site https://www.facebook.com/NaimaMoraMod...# allows people to submit their own sories and have conversation with Naima - and to get weekly top level adice from experts on life and health issues, and more.

The authentic voice and power of Naima's writing and her courage and intelligence make this first book and all to follow not only engaging for fans who know Naima from America's Next Top Model or her performing or modeling life, but for everyday people who want inspiration and grounded advice about making their own lives better, more powerful, and more joyful.

Naima Mora has written an inspiration memoir that should motivate anyone wishing to up their game in the world of modeling. This intelligent young woman encourages her fans to be disciplined and focused for the long run. She gives practical tips and advise for not falling off the path along the way, lured by distractions that can cause you to forget who you really want to be and what your true goals in life are. I feel fortunate to have edited this book and believe it to be good role modeling for young adults.
