Ciara is opening up like never before.

Fresh from the release of her deeply personal new single ‘Ecstasy’ and while continuing to balance music, motherhood, business, and philanthropy, the Grammy winner has graced the latest issue of TMRW Magazine.

And beyond the stunning visuals, the feature finds the singer in reflective form as she speaks candidly about faith, perseverance, purpose, and the mindset that helped shape her decades-long career.

See pics and quotes below…

Ciara on the Power of Faith

“Faith is seeing the light at the end of the tunnel when it is dark as heck.

When you dream up a beautiful big dream, you only see the pretty parts. You do not think about what it is going to take to get there.”

Ciara on Having Direction

“I took on this philosophy that you cannot get to where you want to get to in life without a compass.

I was so hyper focused.”

Ciara on Setting Goals Early

“I made a goal sheet of three goals. The first goal was to get discovered. Once I got discovered, I wanted to sell three to four million albums. Then my third goal was to have longevity.

I envision them. I write them down. I speak them out loud. Then the universe starts to work in such a special way.”

Ciara on the “Why Not You?” Mentality

“That ‘why not you’ mentality really allowed us to pursue our passions with the utmost confidence.

We want our kids to always have the attitude of servitude, gratitude, and faith.”

Ciara on Believing in Yourself

“All it takes is one person to believe in your dream. And that person is you.

Those moments of doubt are temporary. Your journey to your dream does not stop there.”
