2/28/2018 alright guys, another short post, maybe, idk I'm tired, I have a lot to do that I'm actually doing while writing this post and tomorrow, my "free day," I'll probably be spending most of it at my internship 😒 in other news I met a new friend today, yet again, another older individual. this older gentleman and I had a great conversation while playing tennis and I both have been reassured that I will find success and was able to or at least will hopefully be able to help him out. I was able to finish a pretty funny video for you guys, to be uploaded some time this evening. I hopefully will film again tomorrow, and will uploaded a video that's already finished later this week or over the weekend. THANK GOD, next week is my spring break. but... I must catch up on my hours at my stupid internship 😔 I'm not even disappointed or sad about it, I am just tired of doing things that I don't want to be doing. I want to spend my time working har

2/27/2018 ugh this internship is going to be more work than I thought. not the internship in full but managing my hours as I have just fallen behind on my hours and was hoping to make things easier for myself. it's whatever, I don't even wanna think on it. it just feels as if things are just not going in my favor right now, times are just really tough. but I don't want that to come across as if I'm feeling down as I'm prepared for the fight, it just sucks to know that people don't support one another. people do whatever the hell they want to do and that usually involves a lot of factors. it simply upsets me to know/experience people not supporting those that are at least trying to make a positive impact on their lives. but that too is whatever, I'll keep fighting for myself. I actually just got some advice from one of my email clients that I was planning to have in a group where I myself would be giving advice lol. unfortunately I've lost this memb

2/26/2018 I survived :) 2 exams in one day. 2 exams in 2 very different classes; bio-mechanics/anatomy/physiology/musculoskeletal analysis and my other class nutrition 2 rather difficult classes, nutrition being the most outlandish and insane tomorrow I definitely plan to film something and get some work done, I also really need to do a couple hours over at my internship unfortunately but I'm hoping to get things smoothed out over with my internship okay I'm rambling and talking about my problems, yet again I'm very tired. It's been a long Monday unfortunately our university suffered a loss over the weekend, a student from my degree program. it's so sad honestly. a junior whom from what I heard was well involved and going places, was struck by a car while riding his bike in the late hours of Saturday evening and passed away sometime on Sunday. so so horrible. I can't begin to imagine the reactions of his family, it's tough for us as peers of him,

2/25/2018 guys I messed up. yesterday's post was always gonna be shorter than normal but I forgot to mention that today was/is a special birthday. my dad's birthday is today and I'm hoping that this gets to you guys soon enough to wish him a Happy Birthday. unfortunately I now have less than 24 hours, much less actually, to prepare for the 2 exams I have tomorrow. an exam in h374, the class I'm repeating and nutrition, the class I'm beyond annoyed with. it's safe to say that I cannot wait to get tomorrow behind me although I truly am obviously not rushing time. I for sure am not rushing Tuesday as I recently realized that I am quite a ways behind on my hours for my internship so starting this week I really have to begin staying at my intern site longer no matter if I have something to do or not. it's unfortunate and I really am hoping that my supervisor will allow me to do some hours either off site or make-up hours. anyways guys I've finally assig

2/24/2018 this marks post 150 meaning 150 days of daily blogging over the course of 5 months with a total of just under 2000 total views. absolutely amazing. I'm shocked to see that you guys didn't really enjoy the previous post, we only got a few views despite the awesome picture of the GT-R, but that's okay. unfortunately this post won't be much better, I'm exhausted and I really need to study. 2 exams on Monday, just my luck. I'm gonna try to spend some time studying tonight before I pass out then tomorrow I will for sure be cramming in even more information. until tomorrow guys

2/23/2018 IT'S FRIDAY :) FINALLY! I have so much I want to get done and so much that I have to get done. I'm still catching up on some that should've been done before, there's a bunch of things going on with my classes which I have to set some priority to, and thankfully only one more week to spring break. This week literally went by in a flash, I remember joking with my friend at the start of the week about how quickly the time would go until spring break showed up and yeah, time is flying. As much as I really don't want to rush things I am so so excited to be done with college. I've often time been described or referred to as somewhat cool or interesting when meeting people and the saddest thing to me is that I have been so negatively impacted by choices I've made lately. Our choices have such a major impact on our lives and honestly my business and major messages I want to spread as a "mission statement" or word of wisdom is that you should t

2/22/2018 it's the last Thursday of the month, it's time for me to get to work. there's a lot more work to be done and far more memories to create. "throwback Thursday" for me I'm just gonna go back to my strengths, it's time for me to really push here. we average about 400 monthly views here on the blog give or take 50 views, the YouTube channel now has over 10,000 total views, my fan base is growing and I'm now helping people not only in person with their problems but am now providing a service to those I meet over the internet. I haven't made much money, hardly any, with my business and in life in general but money is not the goal. money does not provide happiness. I only mention money to reference the fact that it takes true passion to stay dedicated to something with no financial reward. and often times you won't receive compensation no matter how hard you work on something, but you have to keep working and keep believing. I have a t

2/21/2018 alright guys this post will be short, unfortunately you guys did not get a video yesterday, if that was indeed yesterday that I'm recalling. I wasn't able to finish the video but I'm actually glad I didn't as we filmed a bit more for it today. I left the blog and stopped my time editing early to study for an exam which turned out to be moved to next week 😑 I will try to bring more value tomorrow but unfortunately today I am just tired honestly both physically and emotionally. I don't feel like working, my body aches, and I really just wanna sleep I am so happy to announce that the business is growing ever so slowly, I'm moving forward everyday and hope that you guys are too. life is crazy however, so much happens so random although I believe that it all happens for a reason. random texts, random interactions with the police for me and other innocent people in this world, friends, it's all just crazy. I'm trying my best to stay humble and

2/20/2018 my friend and business partner is turning 21 tomorrow, 21 on the 21st of the month 😏 time just moves so quickly and there just isn't enough of it in a day. i can hardly get all of the things done that I wanna do, I'm having to prioritize way too much in a single day. the most difficult things to include in the day seem to be resting, eating, and hydrating honestly which is so bad. I have to become better about taking care of myself. tomorrow's schedule: internship for a bit, class with a test possibly - I would know if I hadn't skipped the last class, then possibly my internship again and/or tennis with a lesson including. I definitely want the lesson to happen of course as I both care for my student's progress and it's just nice to get paid lol I just found out today some very relieving news, hopefully it's accurate, more details to come. basically and long story short my situation might not be as bad as I claim it to be or have been clai

2/19/2018 it's time for a change. unfortunately guys, I did not pass my first half of the examination process for my certification in Google Ads. I'm a bit disappointed honestly but when I consider my current situation, how everything else has been going, and my overall efforts towards life lately, it's not that shocking. I have not been giving my best effort towards anything - my social relationships, my physical health, school, my business it's just been tough lately and I am for sure spreading myself too thin and asking for too much. as cool as it sounds to be doing so much it for sure isn't cool at all if I'm failing at everything I'm doing. I didn't pass this exam, haven't been doing as well as I can in school, and life just isn't how I want it to be. but today we change that, as you guys know I never let anything keep me down for too long. as the greats say, pain is temporary I'm about 12 minutes from actively skipping my class, I

2/18/2018 alright guys, yesterday's post wasn't good so I'm gonna give a better effort here today while I have some time. I've done my research on that opportunity for work that I mentioned a few days ago and I now am undecided as to whether I'll pursue. I've completed/am about halfway through to becoming a certified marketer with Google Ads and this will truly be my first business move. My plan is to launch both my website with products and services as well as marketing e-commerce products on another platform, most likely t-shirts. the moment I've become certified I'll probably launch a t-shirt store and begin running ads all of which will be documented on my YouTube channel. I'm excited to produce more videos, immediately after finishing this post I'll be going to work on that same video, hopefully to be uploaded today. I have about 8 more videos waited to be uploaded. I believe that anyone and everyone can be successful. right now, Feb

2/17/2018 man my current job sucks lol how many of you can relate? or how many people do you think say this kind of stuff on a regular basis? I for sure think it's at least a little prevalent, many people don't enjoy going to work thankfully this little part time job is temporary, within the next 4 months, life could and most likely will be very different for me I'm just so thankful for this moment and life in general, I really can't wait to have my freedom back and to basically not have to think of homework or classes that need to be taken I'm currently working on certifications for marketing under Google & Facebook, as well as certifications for IT repair under Google, building my email list and gaining valuable knowledge in the field of business, as well as constantly working on my YouTube channel and providing daily posts for you guys here on this blog, all while being a full time college student :P ugh another late posts, I'm sorry guys, Sat

2/16/2018 another friday today we went to the MotorTrend Auto Show here in Rva got to see some pretty cool stuff including the Mclaren 720s, the Mclaren 570s, another Nissan GT-R, and even got to sit in quite a few cars. sadly another time where I didn't get to sit in the GT-R but honestly I don't want to sit in or even see this stuff if it's not my own. I am of course happy for those that have this stuff but I don't just wanna be happy for other people all my life. as I've mentioned before, goals don't motivate me anymore, at least not the rewards that come with working hard. I am trying to make the process my lifestyle and just better enjoy it. and with that I'll just accept and enjoy whatever comes with my hard work rather than look to certain things in life hoping and dreaming to have them only to live life with hopes and dreams. I think that a life like that would be sad and depressing and ultimately would lead you no where. I wanna enjoy life, and

2/15/2018 oh my goodness, guys I may have stumbled upon a new opportunity. I have my new student for which I'll be teaching tennis as I mentioned in yesterday's post but here we are today with hopefully another opportunity for work that will fit into my current schedule. this time what we have is an opportunity to actually work from home 😌 now I just wanna go back over this for people who later read this post my goal isn't to just be working from home, or to just have some lazy but "working" from home lifestyle, or even to just make the most money in the world. I have goals revolving around money involving cars, houses, travel plans, and even life experiences but money isn't the ultimate goal. money doesn't bring happiness. and back to the main point, while I don't just aspire to not have to go to a 9-5 job I think that anyone would agree that being able to do what you enjoy wherever in the world while making money is the true goal. to not h

2/14/2018 Happy Valentines Day 2nd post for today, the previous post was more on 1 issue and hopefully provided more value. this will just be a run down of my day, it will be short. homework due friday h374 quiz on friday h374 quiz nutrition - study internship 😒 email list continuing to grow create social media - business need to work on website pages & branding videos awaiting to be edited & uploaded google adwords! go-pro? b-day gift lessons w/new student car show friday spring break quickly coming up there's a lot more to it but it's not as urgent I guess lol keep working and keep moving forward

2/14/2018 Thursday ehh I still have to work to become more confident in myself. my tennis lesson with my new student went well but I have to become more comfortable around people. my student had a great time and the parents seemed content with our progress but inside I felt the pressure. I did everything well, had a great plan that represents me. It was unique. I got someone, my student, who has never played a sport requiring hand eye coordination to be able to rally back and forth over the next within an hour. the parents were happy enough to ask me to quickly exchange prices and "details" for continuing on. I did everything right, a good job. but inside I definitely felt awkward upon starting, I lost focus continually throughout the lesson; in part because my student advanced far faster than expected but also because my mind kept wandering. I thought about what else I needed to do today, I thought about how the mom thought of my way of teaching her child, I just wasn&

2/13/2018 Lol so I heard this funny joke about Valentines Day in case you don't have a valentine or you just have worries about this "special" day. I heard it on the radio as of course and thought it was pretty funny. those without a Valentine are dreading the fact that they don't have a Valentine while those in a relationship and therefore have a Valentine, will dread the fact that they do. Because those in a relationship wish they were single to then go out and find someone else lol It's crazy how that works but it's a bit of a sad truth in our society nowadays. people aren't loyal, and people aren't committed. guys I'm getting more comfortable with vlogging which is PERFECT. it's great for me, it's happening at a great time. It's just really gonna help. I'm really hoping to begin uploading more frequently, this should help with me being able to do that. I have a message to give out to the world, I will be great. I won't

2/13/2018 Part 1 Yet again, I think this is the second time in the past 4/5 months of daily blogging that I've missed a day. But it was only fitting as yesterday was quite the day for me, yet another crazy one. Thankfully however I'm working on myself. Everyday I'm trying to get better as we all should. I'm trying to spend more time with friends, making new friends, and just being more social. I really want to enjoy these moments. I heard just today in a video with Gary Vaynerchuk that patience is key. Vaynerchuk is another one of those highly successful businessman that I watch over for motivation and I really appreciate what he said about being patient and enjoying the moment. I tend to be too impatient. Success doesn't and most likely won't happen overnight. I get it. Thanks guys for the support, this is the make-up post for yesterday, 2nd post coming soon.

2.11.2018 it's Sunday :) I'm gonna make the best of this day. thanks again Liana for the support and motivation, I've decided to make some major changes to better take care of myself while still making progress. It just doesn't make much sense to approach these next 3 months by making life unbearable just to get ahead. I'm gonna build my social media, I'm gonna build my business and customer list, and I'm gonna get through my classes. It's asking for a lot but I'm gonna make sure that I actually enjoy the next 3 months. We have a car show this upcoming weekend, I'm gonna change my routine a bit to include more exercising and water in my diet, and I'm gonna try to hang out with friends more often. today my main priority is to finish my homework and begin studying for my quiz tomorrow, that's it. after I've done those 2 I will work on the pages for my website , getting my financials together to be able to launch my business as

2/10/2018 I sometimes think about what do I want to be known for, what do I wanna stand for, what do I wanna be remembered for. As a dude I can honestly say that I'm more sensitive than some and that I actually care about people. I'll gladly do more for others than I would for myself, especially family, or friends, or kids, or those that just need some help. Today I got to be around a bunch of kids, not that much younger than myself, but kids nonetheless. It just reminds me when I look at them, when I think about the lives that they get to live that we, the older ones are the people who determine the kinds of options that they have. Kids nowadays grow up with technology. People in general nowadays are more antisocial, more egotistical and self confident, life is just tough now. Things just aren't as they used to be. And that's why as part of my business, as part of my brand I take so seriously the way we interact with people and the need to just help one another.

2/9/2018 man oh man, another crazy but not even crazy day. everything happens for a reason right? ugh, I'm so tired of hearing how young I am. I feel very old. To be specific, I just don't feel as if I have all the fun options that I had when I truly was young. I'm always tired, I'm always working, I'm always stressed. This can't be the end, this can't be what life is all about. nonetheless. my car insurance is due I'm only about 50 hours into my internship my car needs to be inspected my car is burning more gas than normal my job sucks my classes are uninteresting I need to drink more water I need to stretch more I need to be more social ugh, life is tough I need a break guys tomorrow's post will hopefully be better

2/8/2018 I just wanna start today's post by saying thanks so much to everyone that supports me, especially Liana! when you do get the chance to read this post Liana just know that you are appreciated and that the daily blog is going no where. today was yet another good day. woke up late, went to the internship for a bit, and now I'm back doing homework. life in your 20's is crazy! I didn't get the part of my new video filmed that I really want to include 😔 I'm hoping to get it filmed tomorrow but idk if I will be able to make it happen. The day is looking like - internship at 7am, class at 8am to 9:40am with a quiz, class at 12-12:50, studying with a friend of mine at 1pm, then internship at some point in the evening. Another fun day, I don't really wanna do any of it, not even the studying lol what I'm looking forward to getting done/stuff I don't mind doing over the next few days -car insurance/ car inspection/ car recall/ tags & taxes

2/7/2018 ugh... guys I'm frustated...very much so...and honestly I have been for a while now I think it's been obvious from my postings, life is just tough I had yet another great day today but still overall I'm just not happy yet at the same time I'm extremely motivated and "happy" with what I'm doing I basically am gonna start spending more time on my business, even more than I already have been, I have to believe in my business more so than anyone else in order for anyone else to believe in it I'm tired, I'm beyond done with college and my internship I just want to be working on my goals I'm tired of doing things that I don't wanna do but I'm working unfortunately I'm gonna be giving less priority to the blog, I will try my best to give more value but I really wanna focus more on my business Thanks for reading :L

2/6/2018 I really do enjoy spending time with friends, people in general. I love meeting new people and growing, I always want to be growing. I am somehow friends with Daryl Monfils, many of you won't understand this but to me, oh my god lol. Daryl Monfils is the brother of Gael Monfils and if you don't know who that is, Google him. I'm hoping to go ahead an finish yet another upload for the channel by tonight along with studying for my Nutrition class, which I really have to start giving more priority to. all in one day - wake up late, edit and finish a YouTube video, played some tennis, hung out with my boy Mahir and his awesome car. Tomorrow's gonna be a messy day. hopefully I can have a repeat of today but if I do, I'll be more productive. today I wasted too much time honestly. I spent a good 4-6 hours editing my video, I really hope you guys like it. I now have about 30 emails or so which I mentioned yesterday I think, now I think I'm ready to spea

2/5/2018 It's another Monday I didn't study - wasn't prepared for my Nutrition quiz, probably didn't do so well on that. I'm hoping that I aced my exam in Hpex374 I saw an Audi R8 on the road while going to class, and towards the end of the day I got to see a student pull off in an SRT 392 Hemi Charger Yet again I had a good conversation with my buddy - one of my only real "friends" at the moment I did thankfully meet with my group for Nutrition, hopefully that'll be an opportunity to make some more friends For some strange reason gas prices are up, my car took more gas than expected, and the computer/dash inside is reading a lower normal than normal for how much gas it has alright now to the good stuff.

2/4/2018 things are about to change, today is a new day, this is a new week. a fresh start my overall priority is getting ahead in life. it's not about school, it's not about my business, it's not about any one thing specifically. collectively it's about getting ahead. wealth, health, social relationships - friends & family. I'm about to become more organized and focused on these aspects of my life. to make the best of everyday. 2018 will be my year, keep moving forward Superbowl Day

2/3/2018 Day 128 of the daily blog We're now approaching half a year of daily blogging with around 1,600 views and a lot of progress having been made. I keep thinking in my head how badly I wish this routine were taken to YouTube where instead of having a daily blog, there was a daily vlog. I keep on thinking this. But when I think about it, my intent on gaining traction with YouTube deals a lot with the financial benefit that comes with success on that platform when honestly that shouldn't be my intent. As much as I love creating videos I don't think I'd be as motivated to pursue YouTube if there were no financial benefit, meaning pay from the ads. I value the platform as a means of gaining an audience but I really need to better appreciate the work I've put in here. It's been half a year and I for sure have grow by some degree within the small time frame of the 128 consecutive days of daily blogging with this blog. I just wish I had an audience to commun

2/2/2018 It's friday, the first friday of the second month of the year, it's also the second day of the second month of the new year. man oh man does time go by quick. school work, new assignment + finishing the old assignment new video rendering for the channel to be uploaded later today :) work - training for my long day tomorrow feeling good, the weather is crazy! that's life for me right now, I'm enjoying it. anyways guys I've got a lot to get done so I will end today's post here thanks for reading

2/1/2018 it's officially been 4 full months of daily blogging. About 1,600 views later and I'd say we have come a long way. I'm still tired though lol, even while writing this post. 3 more months starts now, classes end on the first week of May and man oh man I cannot wait for those times. I look forward to being able to travel, get out, and enjoy life. I only hope that I can build the future for myself and my family that I aspire to have. I really cannot wait to just be surrounded by people who aspire for more in life. good spiritual people who do more others than for themselves. those that believe that there is more to life than just what we see everyday. Yeah I like to get out and have fun too but man, when you're broke you're broke. you have to work hard for the things you want while being happy with what you have. there's a balance. I have another video coming tonight hopefully, I'm trying to change gears for the channel here so I hope you guys
