April: 30 Days of Creativity

I have a theme for April. For the next thirty days, I will be threading everything I do through this one word. Every day, I will do at least one thing that embodies this thesis. By the time I am done, I am hoping to have infused it within my life on a daily basis.

Creativity.

That’s the theme. I’m going to stop talking about being creative and actually do it. Every. Day. And not just in one area, but many. I talked before about how I felt like I was […]

The Juggling Act

Note: This is an addendum to my blog post last night.

I just realized something. Once of the reasons that I’ve struggled with maintaining some of my social presences, such as YouTube, has a lot to do with the fact that I’m trying to juggle too many balls at once. I’ve looked around at a lot of other YouTubers that post regularly and this is their main focus. Their careers are built around their online escapades, whereas I would prefer that my career be accentuated.

The path I am trying to […]

Coming Up For Air…

It almost feels like I’ve had my head underwater for the last several months. At least on social media. Sure, I’ve been active via Facebook and semi-active on Twitter, but mostly about personal matters and I haven’t been talking about any of my projects. The main reason for that is that everything was halted while I finished some revisions to the AntiKaiser business plan.

But now I’m done and it’s as if I’m coming up for air from a very deep dive. I want to get my blog started up […]

A Very NaNoWriMo November…

What have I gotten myself into? I must be insane. Absolutely bat-shit crazy. I mean, no normal person would have agreed to this. Right? Maybe it’s just a dream; I’ll wake up in a few hours and laugh it off. But wait… maybe this is a good thing. Maybe this is the kick in the pants that I need to get some sort of change in my life and enter a season of full creativity.

In case you don’t know what I’m talking about and the graphic above hasn’t clued […]

Mock Chevy Volt Ad

Allow me to introduce you to my mock Chevy Volt ad. I took this photo at Vasquez Rocks (famous for being where Captain Kirk fought the Gorn in the Star Trek episode “Arena”) during my two day Chevy Volt loan, courtesy GM and Klout. As you can see, the location influenced the direction I took with the ad copy. Trekkies will definitely appreciate this.

A lot of people have been asking me how I got to drive the Volt around. If you are unfamiliar with Klout, they are a site […]

I Am Weak. He Is Strong.

When I first moved to Los Angeles, I blogged nearly every other day. I was transparent and honest about who I was and what I was going through, both good and bad. That rubbed a few people wrong, thinking I was sharing too much, but most people appreciated the candor of my words.

Then I stopped blogging as much. I blamed it on being busy, uninspired, or tired. Those were true, but there was something else at work. I began hiding. I had to conform to the “Hollywood mentality” of […]

On This Day 1,983 Years Ago…

The following is a post I just made on my Facebook wall for Good Friday. I wanted to share it with you.

On this day 1,983 years ago, a man from Nazareth was wrongfully executed, convicted by a rigged jury and angry mob.

As he hung on the cross and died, he forgave the people the killed him, he forgave his friends that abandoned him, and he forgave you. For it wasn’t the lashes or the beating that ended his life, nor the asphyxiation from his shoulders being dislocated. It was […]

The Day Truth Slapped Me In The Face…

I don’t think anyone reads my blog anymore. It’s my fault, really. I’m not consistent. Sure, I’ll spend a week or two putting up a handful of entries, but then I’ll go a couple of months until I post again. This time around, it’s been about six months. Oops.

The truth is, I’ve had a lot happening behind the scenes in the business arena and I’m not comfortable talking about any of it until official announcements are made. I don’t want to ruin and/or jinx any of these opportunities. (All […]

Turning The Page…

I don’t know what to write. I know that I need to say something, but for once I’m speechless. The worst part is that I don’t even know what to feel. I’m not sure if I’m numb, in denial, or if my emotions have already spilled out like the yellow lego guy up above.

Chances are, if you are reading this, you are a close friend trying to find out why I’m mentioning having a broken heart on Facebook. Or you are new to my life and you are looking […]

Lessons from God in Love…

I think God has been working on me a lot lately. A lot more than normal. Well, at least I’m listening more and actually letting the lessons sink in. That’s gotta count for something, right?

A little over a month ago, I told you about pushing the woman I loved away and finally mustering up the courage to tell her that I was sorry. So much has happened since I wrote that and I couldn’t tell every detail if I wanted to. (I actually don’t want to, believe it or […]
