The struggles never stop. Life doesn't wait for you before it gets easier. It's important to believe in yourself and invest in your passion and dreams and go for it. Stay the course, and know that pain is temporary.

Nobody knows this more than Mario Canon.

Mario Canon is the epitome of someone who has worked tirelessly in investing in himself with a huge payoff. Mario is a musical artist, actor, business owner, and personal trainer. He is well-known for his critically acclaimed singing and acting skills and has starred on renowned television shows like Chicago PD and Empire as Charlie Dupree. However, this brilliant artist from Springfield, Illinois, is not your typical musical artist.

Mario has never been afraid to take a chance on himself. His first job opportunity was to be a personal trainer at a gym. Through this experience, he was able to learn the value of hard work and build his credit, and after putting in work there - he ended up buying the gym himself! This was his first big break and taste of financial freedom. Since then, Mario has been extremely successful in life. All because he believed in himself and knew that the hard work he put in would pay off in the end.

Giving back to the community that helped shape him and showing other individuals that there is a right path in life if they follow the course is Mario's passion. He has done just that, and he doesn't plan on stopping anytime soon.
