I’m Never Going to Follow Your Rules

I'm Never Going to Follow Your Rules

If I were to follow your rules, then I’d turn out just like you. I’d make the same mistakes and achieve the same accomplishments. What fun is that? Where’s the progress in that? Is that what you call success?

I am not here for your enjoyment. I am not in it to fit in, I’m in it to win it. I’m grateful to have the awareness that not all great accomplishments are easy or fun or cool or safe. I don’t want to be you. I don’t want to be anything like you. By default, I am nothing like you since birth. So why should I put all my unique energies into doing what you want? Do you think that’s what Michael Jordan did? Do you think Abraham Lincoln wanted to be liked? What would be our world today if Steve Jobs wasn’t an asshole?

To be great, you have to be YOU. That’s the only rule. Be yourself, go forth with your passion because by definition you are nothing like anyone or anything else that’s ever walked on this awesome planet. You are 100% unique.

Sacrifice. Patience. Ambition. Success. Whatever it Takes!

Is being around family really the best option?

When you want to get something off your chest, the hardest part is saying or writing down the first words. But once you realize there’s no right and wrong way, you just need to begin, then it all pours out as it should.

Homeless Film Producer

I strive for achievements not rewards, because the achievement is the reward. I find it incredibly rewarding that not only can I live out one of my dreams, but I can fulfill the dreams and inspire others at the same time.

In case you’re not following me on one of my social media profiles such as Facebook, Twitter or YouTube than you may not know that while I may be homeless, I am also a film producer.

How many stereotypes did I just crush with that last statement?

Below I’ll provide links to my first two films and the third film due to start shooting February 23rd. And guess what? I want you involved in my next film. Check out the website link for #3 to learn how.

What’s Your Problem?

The problem I have is selecting just one industry to conquer, or just one goal to accomplish, or just one person to inspire. Some people think I’m unfocused, some have even called me a Renaissance Man, but maybe my problem is not a problem at all.

Maybe I’m something you cannot put a label on.

Maybe I’m just curious and crave knowledge and wish to experience life outside of text books.

I think, at a child’s birth, if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to endow it with the most useful gift, that gift would be curiosity. – Eleanor Roosevelt

A homeless friend needs a new Sprint Cell Phone

Nearly everyday I get contacted (usually through Facebook) by homeless people or friends and family of homeless people asking me to help get them food, shelter, a free blog or the usual resources of where to go for help in their local communities. You can learn about the two most recent families I’ve helped get food and shelter from my Great News RE: Single Mom w/ 2 Daughters! blog post and Help me House a Homeless Mom with 5 Kids blog post.

If I Asked You…

So if I asked you about art you’d probably give me the skinny on every art book ever written. Michelangelo… you know a lot about him. Life’s work, political aspirations, him and the pope, sexual orientation, the whole works, right? But I bet you can’t tell me what it smells like in the Sistine Chapel. You’ve never actually stood there and looked up at that beautiful ceiling. Seen that.

Every second is unique and only happens once in a lifetime.

Everything you do, everything I say, everything your friends hear, can all be taken in different ways, no matter what it is.

Every second is unique and only happens once in a lifetime.

Think before you act. Focus before you strike. Believe before you proceed.

Whatever it takes.

I found someone selling their laptop on CriagsList, and I just had this crazy idea. So I emailed them…

Trick Your Mind

The mind doesn’t know the difference between when you’re doing something or only thinking of doing something. This means you can literally trick your mind into thinking… or doing anything.

The Placebo Effect does not only come in the form of a pill. It’s a mindset. It’s the thought that what you know or what you believe, will fix something. Even fix you if the case may be.

You can trick your mind into believing you are better than you actually are. You can trick your mind into believing you are someone you are not. You can do anything and be anything you want.

This isn’t some game, it’s real life. Ask me how I did it… and still do it.
