Good day people of earth and beyond, So here I go again with another blog post. As promised this one is going to be on a much lighter note than yesterday. I just had to get that off my chest. I had to document it in my own way because weโre going through one of those moments people will be analyzing hundreds of years from now. Whatโs funny is that yesterday was gloomy rainy and cold but today is brilliant sunshine. Similar to the mood of the blogs that I would write on each of these days. This one is going to be more of a business and music update. A while ago when life took a pretty drastic turn for me, I turned to this blog to still be my voice out into the world. Due to the fact that I felt guilty for not being able to do what I felt I should be doing. Which is putting out music in to the atmosphere on a regular basis. Itโs a way for me to stay in touch and let people know what Iโm up to in the between time and also be able to express my myself and speak my mind. Whether I reach many or whether I only reach a few just know that I will always do what I do. In the last post I started out talking about the importance of communication. One of the reasons Iโm eager to get this music blog rolling is best way that I communicate is through playing music. I believe once people start hearing these trax youโll know just what I mean. Although the songs are instrumentals as of now, the energy and emotion still vibrate through and will be felt. I donโt want keep just talking about I want to show not tell but it doesnโt hurt to have a bit of context. I am pretty excited about new ways to monetize this IP, generate income and have a career or a business doing what I absolutely love. This brings me to another point that I briefly wanted to touch on regards to mental health. I was watching this show and the host was talking About how the happiness level in this country among certain age groups and demographics has plunged. The way he phrased it he made it seem as if people were just sitting around taking antidepressants feeling sorry for themselves. Iโm paraphrasing here but he pretty much saying that people should be happy because they have a job and a TV. I can see that point of view to a small degree, but me being someone that has a strong interest in psychology I have theory about depression. My thought is this I think everybody has a purpose and every emotion serves a purpose. When I look back on times in my life when I experienced depression. Then compared that to the wide and diverse range of people and have been affected by it or struggle with depression has caused me to come up with my own hypothesis. In recent years we see people that have fortune, fame and family but still become suicidal. Personally, I can tell you that the times in my life when I have felt depressed is when I was not playing music. So, you can probably see where I am going with this. Whenever I am making a lot of music not matter what is going on in my life and whatever challenges I may be facing at the time Iโm pretty much still a happy camper. Itโs not music or creativity for everybody but like an ant colony everyone plays a roll in running a healthy well adjusted society. Just like an ant colony if something is off things can go into a death spiral. Iโm not an expert these are just my thoughts. My point is this possibly some of these people are finding themselves depressed because they are not finding true meaning ย in their life because they are not doing what they are coded to be doing in their genetics. It doesnโt have to have to be something complicate like finding a new career or having children. It could be something simple that helps you find meaning like planting a garden, photography, or writing poetry or cooking for your friends. Anyhow I think you get my point just something I wanted to touch on. Back to the subject at hand. One of the most crucial steps in the process after a song is recorded is the mixdown and master. Iโm not going to get too deep into this itโs engineering work itโs what has to be done to make sure the songs sound right across various platforms, itโs technical stuff most people donโt care as is they shouldnโt. I only bring it up because in the past itโs something Iโve paid and relied on other people, professionals to do for me. Which I think is good to have another set of ears helping to make sure the final product is perfect. As you grow in the field and the industry changes and your objectives also change you may have to wear more hats. At the end of the day what comes out is your baby. So, I had to take some time out to learn to do that for myself. Itโs not that complicated of a task if you know what you want your music to sound like. After youโve spent countless hours as a producer a long side the sound engineer you start to learn and pick up what there are doing. Also, youtube is a good resource for tutorials on this subject. I had to go back and mixdown and master everything that I had for the past couple years or so. The benefit of being able to come out with a completed product from A-Z in-house, is that it makes things a whole lot easier if something isnโt quite right and you need to make changes. Also, youโre not paying someone else to do it for you. I finished doing that a few weeks ago, now I have a few dozen of trax finished ready to go. I have everything on my google drive and my phone just in case. In the future I wonโt have to take time out to do that because I will mixdown and master the trax as I produce them. That is one of the reasons I havenโt started working on videos yet. This is my plan. I have long vacation coming up in a few weeks. I want to spend that entire break working on new beats. In the past Iโve never had that long to just focus on just my music. Projects come out so much better when you donโt have to stop producing because you have to get ready for work and I may not be able to get back to the song for a few days. Then it can take more time to get back into same mindset you were in when you started creating the trak. Things run so much smoother when you can stay up late if you need to and get right back to it early in the morning. It definitely enhances the quality of work. After that I think I will be ready to start working on the visual aspect for the songs, but if I feel Iโm still just hitting my stride as a producer and capturing lighting in a bottle. I will keep working on new trax until I feel the time is right. So, reality is that things are changing fast Iโm doing my best to process a whole lot of new information. In regards to music licensing and new AI tools are popping up seems like every day. Up until a few weeks ago I had never even heard the word โsync licenseโ. What Iโm learning changes my perspective and possibly my entire objective. I just knew I wanted to try to get my music into commercials and video games etc. Come to find out thereโs an entire industry and infrastructure setup to facilitate just that and the odds are so much better than trying to become the next viral sensation. It will take me some time process and apply all this new information into a coherent winning strategy. I want to talk about all that more in the next blog. Maybe that one will be a video weโll see what happens Until then I hope you continue to win. Happy Sunday, I hope you get you proper amount of sleep and wake up rejuvenated for a productive, prosperous, joyful week. Stay Beautiful even though I know you canโt help but to do that. Much Love as alwaysย

bL!ng bL!ng Happy Spring ๐ด๐ผ๐ด๐ ๐ป๐๐๐บ๐๐๐๐โค๏ธ๐๐งก๐น๐ง๐ถ๐ฌ๐บ๐ฎโ ๏ธ๐ฐ
Whatโs up everybody? Whatโs happening silkys in the milky? How you doing? I wanted to say hello since itโs been a minute. Happy spring time I hope life is treating you well this season, although I know the world remains in a very turbulent state to say the least. Hopefully they can find a path to peace and better days for all those who are suffering. You are in my thoughts and prayers and this is not about taking sides itโs about saving innocent lives. Harmony is possible. I just wanted to drop in and wish you well. Everything is coming along really good on my end. Iโve just been fully in Music Mode in all my extra time. Banging out trak after trak and they all sound real smakadocious, ferocious similar to a swarm of Locus . So donโt worry every artist has this phase when they are locked in a room focusing on their breakthrough project. I should be able to elaborate further and be a little bit more specific about what Iโve been up to. Artists can be misunderstood individuals, thatโs why Iโve decided that my podcast or vlog whatever you want call it will be centered around โthe Creative Processโ. To shed some more light and understanding on the thought process, what goes on behind the scenes as well as the struggle. Especially with this new AI era that is sure bring major change to everyone in the creative field. It will definitely serve to be a tremendous opportunity particularly to individuals like myself. Just know that creatively momentum is on my side so I am positioning myself to be able to capitalize. More details on the way in the upcoming days and weeks.ย The music blog Iโve spoken is closer than ever to going live. In the near future I will be posting a new music video ever couple of weeks at least. All the necessary components are coming together and the path forward is becoming clearer. Also, the path to getting my music licensed for films, TV, video games and other media has recently been made available to me. So thatโs another avenue Iโm currently actively pursuing.ย A full or at least a more in-depth update is coming in the next week or so. Until then have no fear the Force is with us, the future remains bright. One day this world will see a time peace, prosperity and harmony. So, my Whipulization Nation stay tuned to the Silkalization Station for important updates and information regarding content creation. Also mental, spiritual, emotional and physical health elevation as well as compelling conversations. As we live through trials and tribulations and experience Revelations. Itโs Spring and Love is in the air so letโs spread it everywhere. ย

Happy 2024 end of the year wrap up update ๐๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ฐ๐ต ๐ถ ๐ผ ๐๐๐ฅ โ ๏ธ๐๏ธโ๏ธ๐ป ๐น ๐พ๐ ๐งก๐ฏ ๐๐โค๏ธ๐
Whatโs going on everybody? I just wanted to drop in real quik here to say wzup.ย Wrap up the year with a bow and welcome in the new one with a blessing. Undoubtedly a lot of out there in the cyberverse have had a prosperous year. Which is a good thing Iโm always happy to see those who work hard reap the benefits of there labor, weather it be physical, mental or otherwise. For me personally it was a good year one of the better years for me as far as happiness is concerned. I wanted to go pedal to the metal and write this long end of the year blow out blog. Catch up on everything and touch on a range of topics and go into depth about what Iโve been doing and especially the creative process. Realistically I donโt have the time to get that done before January 1st.ย Thatโs not really a bad thing thought. Itโs been a really productive year for me as far as music production is concerned, I was able to complete a lot of top-notch quality traks. Every time I step to the plate itโs either a home run or a grand slam in my opinion. Since production is core competency and pretty much the foundation of everything else I do. Itโs been nice to be able to focus sometime on that. Iโm to the point where I canโt even imagine something not coming of this and I contemplate what I will be able to accomplish once I can really focus on this like I should 8 โ 10 hours a day everyday or on most days. Right now, itโs getting all my free time besides all the other necessary stuff I have in life, like eat sleep and go to work. Keep in mind Iโm a truck driver I wake up at 2am on most week days. Thereโs only so many hours in the so sacrifices have to be made. Like sitting down and watching a 3 hour sporting event completely out of the question, for the time being. Matter of fact I didnโt want stop to write this. I was working on a beat earlier today. My new phone which is the S21 it has an 8k camera which is ranked to be one of the best phones for tik tok videos. Iโve had it for three months itโs still in the box. I havenโt had time to which my data over. Iโll do it soon but this give you an example of how laser focused Iโve been on music. I also already have bought my lighting setup. I going to build my vocal booth from fold out room dividers and soundproof blankets. Like a square tent that I can take down when Iโm done an is portable. I donโt anticipate catching up on these blogs until Iโve switched over to video format and have been doing it long enough to get the hang of it. In this new year Iโm going to start working on new videos. It is really good time to do specifically what I do. I spoken about how thereโs an oversaturation of media in circulation. Now thereโs a positive aspect to that. For someone like me who can pretty much create a song everyday given the time. If you know where to look thereโs this colossal pool of visual media to pull from edit together and make your music videos. Iโve been collecting different clips that fit the themes I have for various upcoming projects. What gets me really excited is what I seen as far as AI video generation. Itโs truly game changing, this just made the whole process 500 times easier a thousand times faster and 100 time less expensive. I can literally put out videos as fast as I can cut the traks. Iโve already had some ideas for content I want to make like the premium workout/music video hybrid series. Incorporating this AI is really the adhesive that bring everything to together and makes it flow. You can pretty much tell the AI what you want in the scene and it creates it. Itโs especially good when it come to animation your only limit is your imagination. The visuals that Iโve seen it generate fits my style of music really well. That futuristic space age other dimension type vibe. Whatโs really exciting is that this technology didnโt exist a few months ago itโs just getting started. Itโs developing at such a fast rate imagine the possibilities. When the music software I use starts incorporating AI musical instruments in the configuration because that is the next logical step, itโs really going to blow the roof off. Just give me a little time to get the hang of the technology. I will be putting out some top notch content at a high rate of pace. This is going to allow me to focus my time energy on what my core competency which is creating these really elaborate soundscapes. Itโs going to put more eyes and ears on my products and allow my audience which Iโm most concerned with but also this businesses and companies hear what I have to offer. I believe my blessing will become even larger at that point due to fact that I am now completing the circuit. All this energy and inspiration thatโs being channeled into me. Not only am I able to sequence it and put it back together into an appealing consumable format. I will be actually putting out into the world and the universe getting my energy and vibes into circulation. Iโm truly excited about what the near future has in store. Last year I said by this year I would be in the stratosphere. Do I feel that came to pass? No, I donโt but I live my life by the motto โaim for the stars land on the moonโ. So I am actually happy at what I was able to achieve. Although I am not complacent, So in 2024 I will aim for the stratosphere once more. There are some people I want thank but I want to wait until I have the time to elaborate and go further into depth on why. Weโre also going to discuss business, fitness, philosophy, psychology, movies and how to โAcquire what you Desireโ I want to wish everyone the best and success in the upcoming new year. This world is dealing with some really rough situations to put it lightly. It is my hope that they can work through it and end the unnecessary human suffering. A little bit of Love goes a long way. If you donโt hear from me, itโs because Iโm turning out fresh new tunes with you in mind. Things will be kind of crazy and erratic while I am in this necessary but temporary transitional phase. Just know I love the challenge as well as overcoming obstacles through innovation. Thank you and much Love to everyone who has been along for this wild ride this long. Things are starting to look really optimistic. Stay tuned huge thangs coming soon!
Labor Day Music Update ๐ผ๐ต๐ถ๐๏ธ๐ง๐น๐ฅ๐ธ๐ธ๐๐๏ธ๐ฆ ๐๐พ๐๐ฟ ๐๐พ๐๐พ๐ง๐น
Whatโs going people? I hope everyone is doing quite well this Labor Day weekend. This wonโt be a long blog I just wanted to drop in and say hello and maybe put some good words on your brain for the evening. Iโm more than likely going to be going back to filming a video blog by early next year. Iโm starting to build a set in my room right now. I think it could less time consuming and would raise my profile, now that Iโm getting closer to releasing music on a consistent basis again. To be honest with you I donโt have a lot of free time. I still drive a truck four days a week. I have to do my workouts I still run everyday for forty minutes three miles. My blog update on my running experiment is coming. I still do my meal prep thou I have it down to the point where I only have to prepare my product very eight weeks or so. Besides that, thereโs everything that comes a long with everyday life and all the nonsense and distractions. I try my best to stay focused on the task at hand. With free time that I do have I spend it all working on new music. One of the benefits of the job that I have is that we get a ton of PTO. Thatโs a huge benefit to an aspiring music producer/ creator. To have the time to work on songs all day and maybe through the night and not worry about having to get up in the morning (even thou I get up early everyday anyway), and know Iโm still getting paid is huge blessing for me. I can focus on excellence, execution and the quality of my work. Iโm grateful for that due to the fact when I switch over to self-employment, I wonโt have that safety net there. Even thou my this is art itโs not all about money. If I was just about money, Iโd be working on all my days off putting in crazy overtime and side hustling. Iโm not saying thereโs anything wrong that Iโve done it before Iโll do it again if I have to. Our slogan out here in NorCal is โBorn 2 Hustleโ. For right now I feel like the music Iโm creating is important, unique and will help the overall well-being of all those who listen with an open mind and a righteous heart. Besides that, my weoplizations in my opinion not trying to sound like Iโm patting myself on the back too much but the traks are sounding quite amazing. To the point where I feel like if I break my momentum and my mindset, I would actually be leaving money on the table. I feel like Iโm creating gold and diamonds from my energy and thoughts. Looking at the big picture in the long run this music more than going to pay for itself many times over. What can I say the magic is flowing and the hits keep coming. For me personally it makes me feel productive which is for my personality type is the number one thing we need in life. Not only that but like I feel like Iโm fulfilling my actually purpose appointed to me. Also, as my skill level grows and I incorporate new techniques I feel like Iโm gaining more neurotransmitter connections and actually increasing my brain capacity and Iโm becoming more proficient in other areas of my life. When Iโm working, I feel like itโs an escape Iโm transported to another world or dimension that I created. When people hear I feel like they are going feel the same way like being transported to another dimension. Another benefit it serves to impede all the toxic poisonous media we are bombarded on a daily basis. The sound trac in my mind is chords and melodies and rhythms that I just composed. I donโt say this to brag I say to encourage others who would consider this along their journey to self-improvement and eventual enlightenment. The best way I can describe the feeling when you just made a song and you know itโs as hit record not only that but you can do it again not just consistently but at will, it makes you feel unstoppable, no matter whatโs going nothing brings you down. I feel like Iโm on cloud nine all the time. So, for time being everything thatโs not urgent like the blogs, photoshoots and even the transport business that Iโm more than likely going to be starting in the near future Iโve temporarily put them to the side, So that I can keep this momentum that I have in the lab going strong. As long as the hits keep coming, Iโm going to keep banging em out. While it may not seem like it because Iโm not releasing the music as of yet. Itโs actually a good thing because when I do surface, Iโll have more ammunition to work with. When I feel like Iโve gotten to a good stopping point or my creativity has plateaued. I will then turn my attention to other things. Until then I will continue laying down a solid foundation to build upon. (By the way I wanted to say thank you to thee who have supplied with the inspiration that I need to succeed)ย ;-] <3
Now with that being said having some ultra tight traks is a huge advantage and gives me some leverage but doesnโt guarantee success. There are other aspects that need to be addressed. First off just as important as having a tight song in this day and age the visual aspect has to be there as well. You have to have a tight unique video to go along with the bomb song. Collaborations are definitely going to be a huge part of the process but with the right people. You have to have chemistry we have to be same wave length. So that we know each other thinks. Also, as far as platform goes before I setup shop anywhere. Iโm going to publish my media my IP on my own server on my own platform first. To do that Iโm going to need to further my knowledge as far as programing and coding goes. Now is actually a good time to do that because AI bots can do a lot of the heavy lifting for you as far as programming goes. Because I put too much time and energy into creating original, unique, quality content for it to be presented poorly. That goes for my upcoming vlogs and ever growing music video catalog. I want them on my own platform so that I can be in control of the presentation. With the experiences Iโve had I donโt trust some big tech to do that for me. Iโm going to return to social but Iโm going I am focusing on my own in-house infrastructure first. In the position I'm in I feel like it is important for me to learn the backend of the business as well as the front end. Lastly to address time frame I want say Iโm not going to reveal my hold card anymore. Too many people are paying attention, but more important than that is, as far as music is concerned in the world of entertainment there is a lot of different applications for right songs. Take video games this is just one example. It would not be very savvy of me to not explore these other available options. My point is I donโt necessarily need to take this certain to path. I just want to do what I do best for living thatโs being creative and do what makes me happy and creating music and sharing it with those who appreciate it. Thereโs so much more I want to say about my music and thereโs so much going in the world I could chat on and on for a very long time, and I will but at a later date, but it has been a long week. I wonโt do you a disservice by writing a long sloppy blog. I just wanted to let you know what has been going with me. Iโm in a good place Iโm not there yet but I can see the finish line. Yโall know Iโm always going to stay in touch no matter. Remember to check my blog the day after Judgement because Iโll definitely have a lot to say about that. Seriously I hope everyone enjoys the rest of the holiday weekend. Me I will get up 5am tomorrow run shower and continue working on a song I started yesterday. But anywho keep doing what you do because it seems to work for you. I hope you have a very lovely evening chill labor day too. Before you go off to the land of dreamz I want to remember we were meant to fly so spread your wings. Letโs plan a trip to the moon I hope to see you real soon.

And when I flip this switch, the paradyme is about to shift,ย ย

And when it comes to my life on the road Iโm going to have to plead the 5th,
In the studio Iโm as fast as Sonic Pryme, this world is running out of time,
But even so the starz they still will shine,
So first Iโm going to audition these traks to those who know wzup and hopefully blow their mind,

All the Ladies that sent me a message Yes I received your kite,ย
So I wanted to respond and say hello and goodnite,
And a business plan is coming together if youโre going to do it, do it right,

Donโt get it distorted, Iโm creating content unlike anything b4 it,
Executives cant ignore it, I record it, they report it,
Now look up in the sky thereโs an armada in orbit,
And you can hover with them but only if you can afford it,
Any pain they can inflict you best believe I can absorb it,
Do you think that youโre more important, just because you went to Harvard?ย
If you think that these man-made intuitions have any real solutions,
Your jumping to conclusions, seeking acceptance and inclusion, but its all just an illusion,
Education is essential but its your brain Not a piece of paper that defines you,
What you are truly searching for in your hart of hearts will find you,
Do you feel as if youโve lost your way well here let me remind you,
That you have Angels behind you,
I can sense their vibe and their mood, they tell me when to make my movez,
I may need to do a round of funding, and what I mean by that is me getting on my grizzly and hustling,ย ย

Whatโs happening everybody out there especially all the sweet silkys from the milky. I sincerely hope life is treating you well this year, and if it is not hang in there and persevere, at the end of the tunnel there is always a bright Light, and there is always a sunrise after every dark night.
So, this is just going to be a brief update I canโt write a manuscript today. I just wanted to take some time out to catch up with everyone. Drop good words on your brain and update you on where Iโm at as far as my various projects go. If you donโt hear a lot from me, nowadays consider that a good thing. I will explain as we get further into this. I will say this thou that it is not for having materiel to discuss. There is so much going on in the world right now. There is an overwhelming number of topics we could delve into. Iโve been interested in the ongoing protests happening in France. So Iโve been following that story as it develops. It seems to me that the issue is not so much the reform itself, but rather how it was passed and force upon the people there. It brings up some serious questions. Why couldnโt more negotiation take place to get the reform passed? Could there have been something offered in exchange to offset what people are being forced to give up? What does this say about democracy itself? What other legislation that literally nobody ย wants can just be forced upon the population. Like I said Iโm not going to get into today but, weโll keep watch of the situation as it develops and see what happens. That bring us to the labor revolution happening closer to home. With the writersโ strike going on in Hollyhood right now. Of course, I stand with the writers, I am a writer. Possibly I could be a member of the WGA in the future. The writers have a valid point that you canโt make the argument that you canโt afford to pay them. When we everybody can see huge profits being generated from their work. Then we can see this obscene, absurd amount of money youโre paying the CEOs. I donโt know how much longer they think they can get away with it, but itโs not an extreme statement to say there is some King Louis the XVI ish going down right now with top level executive pay. Things have become so ridiculously unbalanced. When someone is getting paid enough to pay every writer in the industry salary and still have still have a mountain of cash left over. I mean if your salary is like 400 million dollars. Okay fine I can accept that. Now you have to justify it and you should be able to write all the shows yourself for that much money, and produced them yourself too. That why you make the big buxx. If you canโt do that and you canโt, because nobody can then things need to be a little bit more balanced to be sustainable. I did want say that to the point about Artificial Intelligence and script writing. You cannot stop the implementation of modern technology. If the studios want to use AI to start performing some of their writing tasks, theyโre well within their rights to do so. Thatโs one the of reasons we saw these massive layoffs across the technology sector recently. Due the fact they are now able to replace programmers and code writers with AI. An AI can write thousands of pages of code flawlessly in an instant. I think that screen writing is bit different thou. While an AI may be able to write the structure and bones of a script. I donโt believe that they will be able to communicate with nuance. Youโre still going to need people to fill in dialogue humor and depth.ย I want to say hang in there to the writers and we will be rooting for you and watching in anticipation to see how the situation plays out. Besides that, weโre going to get back to the โAcquire what you Desireโ series weโre not done yet. โThe Food that built Americaโ is already into season four Iโm not even done writing about season three but I still plan on doing so. One of the highlights of season four so far is the story of the guy who started Popeyeโs chicken. What I found interesting about that situation is that there were two different companies that this guy had. One was Popeyeโs chicken then there was a whole different company that owned and distributed the recipe to franchises. The guy actually ended losing control of Popeyeโs to the bank, but since his other company still owned the recipe. They had to pay him 3.1 million dollars a year until he then died. Then they bought the recipe out from his estate for like 40 million dollars. I thought it was interesting that they didnโt just reverse engineer his recipe. Perhaps legally they couldnโt. Weโll dive deeper in to that later. The more I watch that show the more confident and inspired I feel about my own food product. Otherwise in the world of TV Battle Bots is in the midst of a pretty epic season. I know that this sport is going to explode onto the mainstream within the next few years. I want say congratulations to all the 2023 inductees to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, it was well deserved. A special shot out to the artists Iโm most familiar with. Missy Elliot the first female rapper ever inducted also Rage Against the Machine. No need to name their accolades they are well known. They both have served as inspirations to me personally. A lot of these topics we will get further into later down the road when I get caught on my blogs. Thereโs a lot to get catch up with too. I still want to talk about the Johnny Depp vs Amber Herd case. I think I have an interesting perspective on this in regards my research on personality types and how you can easily predict the outcome of these sorts of situations coming. A short version of what I wanted to say about that is this. Human beings myself included never act outside their own personality type. Most people are one of two of the most common types. I personally am neither one of those two. People with any knowledge on the subject have probably figure what type I am already. Itโs not that hard to do. So if you know that, then you know how I am going to react to any situation every time. The outcome will never change. Now in regards to Johnny Depp and Amber Herd, to simplify the situation Iโll use an illustration. If you put two Alpha personality types (which they both obviously are) in a room for a long enough time. Only one of neither of those people are going to walk out of that room alive. To sum this up learning about personality types is instrumental is finding happiness as well as your niche in life and this world and choosing your life and business partners wisely. For now, letโs switch gears and move on.ย ย ย
Today I really wanted to do a brief personal update. I know I started the year off writing something every week. I donโt want anyone to think that Iโve been fatiguing on that. Rather that is just how my creativity comes out sometimes. It can happen in spurts depending on what Iโm exposed to and whatโs going on in my life at the time. Also we have to ration our energy and time thereโs only so many hours in the day. To give you and example of what I mean by that is when I was running for an hour everyday my writing output slowed down drastically. I still run every day but just not for as long a period of time. Right now, I run for forty minutes a day every day. At the time when I was running for an hour a day itโs what I needed to for my personal health. Now while it did take away time and energy that I could have been put towards other stuff, if you look the other side of the same coin. In a year from now I will most likely only be running for about twenty minutes a day. On this same topic in about mid-August, it will be one full year that would have run on the treadmill every day.ย At that I will write a blog detailing the entire experience. I will report on how it affected my life my health and the physical changes. Today we are about half way thru the year. At the start of the year, I started talking about how great this year was going to be and all the moves I would be making. So how did things turn out for me so far? I would honestly have to that 2023 has been wonderful, things have turned out much better than I even anticipated. I had some assets that actually appreciated. I hope you didnโt all the fear mongering didn't cause you to sell your digital assets. I wonโt get into it today but anyone who knows a little something about the subject know why you should never sell yourself short, and be smart enough to see through all the smoke and fud. Besides that I have had a new business opportunity come my way. Itโs a gig job the thing about it is that it is catered toward my specific skill set. My entire adult life transportation has always been my bread and butter. While this is a transportation gig it is on professional level requiring a commercial license and commercial insurance and it is the most premium level of ย the service. Like Mr. Wonderful says ideally if you have a business, you want cater to the affluent. For me this business checks all the right boxes. The start up costs are minimal compared other businesses Iโve looked at. I remember discussing getting into the car hauling business a while ago. For the business Iโm looking into now the equipment I need is way less expensive then buying a car hauler and a trailer and maintaining all that heavy equipment. The customer acquisition cost are zero. You have two of the biggest corporations in the world supplying you with unlimited customers. Thereโs no inventory to buy, maintain or budget for. There is very little risk in getting started. Even the equipment I have to purchase to get started (a ย new blac-on-blac Luxury Vehicle) is an asset that I can sell, trade or keep. The competition should be minimal most people would have a difficult time meeting the requirements to join the program. For me it fits perfectly its right in my lane. This is what the sharks have taught me about how you attain success you find your niche then run with it as far as you can. Iโm not a complicated person it doesnโt take a lot to make me happy. This is simple straight forward business with low overhead and low stress. So, Iโm pretty excited about this new venture because of the level of freedom it would allow me to have for the first time in a long time. What I mean by that is it would allow me to expand my horizon an get out of my region more often. For example, if I want to drive out to Malibu or Laguna beach get a hotel, Yโall know I have like 1.5 million Wyndham hotel points. I could go out their work hang out go to the 24-hour fitness or whatever. Since Iโm not tethered to job, I could just go anywhere and work like Las Vegas for the holidays. The bigger the city the more I could potentially earn. I can target conventions sports events stuff like that itโs all up to my own discretion. Imagine the adventures I can have but, Iโm in no rush to quit my job as a truck driver. I have good job with a good work home life balance. While I want to start transitioning over to self-employment. I have to weight what I will be giving up in way of benefits like pto and health insurance. So, I will do both for a while until I can make a smooth transition over. I believe itโs going to be lucrative and good stepping stone to elevate to the next level, and help me secure the capitol or my other ventures.
Finally what Iโve been focusing on most recently is what is my actual core competency. Iโm actively working on music production in some capacity almost every day. Everything else I do is an effort to draw attentions to my beats. In the near future we will explore an entire series on the creative process and how it works for me. For now, I wanted to let know that things are going quite well. I never pressure myself in creating. So I didnโt know how long it would take to get warmed up and get in my groove. Let me tell you the magic has just been flowing out of me. It feels amazing thereโs nothing like creating something from nothing. It makes you feel productive, confident, inspired and motivated. I believe Iโve said this before but playing music is one of only activities I can think of where you are using your Left and right brain simultaneously at a high level. Not to start celebrating and patting myself on the back but when everything is coming out sounding tight you know youโre on a good trajectory.ย So I might be focusing on the production side of thing for a while, because when you got the hot hand you have to stick with it. I havenโt really even caught fire yet Iโm still just warming up but everything is sounding like a hit. So, I believe I will be able to create some pretty incredible stuff in the very near future. You never know when your going to make the song that changes your life. So forgive if I unable write in my blog as often just know its because Iโm making new songs for you.ย Thank you for your patience itโll be worth the wait, and once I start back up I wonโt stop again. Soon the music blog Iโve been speaking of for so long will be active and in full swing. As far as how Iโm going monetize it, Iโm contemplating a new business strategy. In music the business model changes every five years anyway. While my idea is not fully flushed out yet itโs going to involve collaborating with some creators (Apples & Oranges) whose content would be enhanced by some original, tight, fresh new beats. Together we could come up with some premium media content and shake up this small blue world. If you want to be one of the first to give this go please reach out to me donโt act shy. This means something because I have strong sense of loyalty to those who have helped me out. If not I seek out those who fit the bill, and yes you will get paid upfront and share in the residuals. As far as how Iโm going to promote it beyond this website. I have an idea but Iโm not completely sure. What I am sure of is as long as I continue to accumulate this cosmic energy the path forward will be made clear to me at the appropriate time. So like I mentioned if you donโt hear from me as frequently. Consider that good thing it means Iโm on a roll creeping closer to my goal. Iโm going to continue post these written blogs, like I said they really get those neurotransmitters firing and help out with my song writing. But right now Iโm ย not even thinking of Lyrics Iโm in straight Beat-mode, So if I seem a bit aloof itโs because sometimes I get stuck in flow, and my essence is fazing between this dimension and the other where the wild things grow. I wish you all well, Letโs get prepared for an amazing summer full of wonder. And if you want to text me I believe you have my number ;-]ย

Still there is a lot to discuss so rest assure I will be blogging again real soon. ย Right now I am staying busy strategizing trying to figure out the best path forward. Also refreshing my inventory or producing more music and songs. I'm working in the lab today but I will be publishing a more complete full update in the upcoming weeks. Until then have a pleasant night and great weekend talk to you soon.
