4/10/18 it just goes to show, if you just show up, things happen you can just show up with a racket and tennis balls at the tennis courts and someone will play with you it doesn't matter where you're from, what you do, or what you look like we as people are here to be together, to work together met some more tennis friends today and got to see some very nice cars mustang gt, ferrari california, a subi wrx (lady driven), a challenger hellcat as well as a few other challengers I'm still soo tired though, I'm just always tired I'm not unmotivated at this moment but I am feeling sluggish and sleepy didn't go to the internship today 😅 I normally go there on Tuesdays but with all the time on the court I honestly just didn't/don't feel like it today, maybe tomorrow today's my day about to work on the free product, hopefully finish my part for the h350 group project, and get things planned out for the remainder of the week for my business

4/7/2018 another good Saturday woke up feeling not so great but we're ending it off on a good note about to do some school work for h350 then string 2 rackets for some moolah it's all about the business, probably won't get to work on it again tonight but we'll see I really need to work on another aspect of myself -getting things done -rather than procrastinating, do it now -once you start it, do it -if you're gonna do it, give it your best that's what I share as inspiration for people and now it's time for me to practice what I preach as they say. I struggle badly with completing my school work. I quickly become distracted, I easily become unmotivated to complete it, I honestly am just tired of school and homework don't take anything for granted appreciate what you have consider what you give when thinking of what you want to get nothing in life is guaranteed I just found today -something that I have- I might not need to buy/make anot...

3/10/2018 it's Saturday already, and it's early. well early enough for my friends from other parts of the world to hopefully see this while the sun is still up. tomorrow's my last day of spring break in what hopefully and I know will be my last semester of college. I didn't have the experience I wanted to with this break but I will try my best to go into these last 8 weeks with more energy and focus to essentially finish strong. the first half was tough and we had some great highlights, this last half of the semester will be equally as difficult if not even more difficult but we can do it. I hate making bold statements such as "today starts," or "today marks the first day I..." so I will just say this, I am planning to take better care of my physical health. I need to stretch more, I want to get on a schedule for my strength training (just push-ups and small stuff), and I want to learn to back flip. Being able to do a back flip and have better bod...

3/5/2018 ugh, this internship experience, college in general, sucks. my supervisor is human of course, so even he will sometimes be too busy to reply to text messages, but this completely through off my day. well, kinda. I didn't want to and honestly didn't fully plan to do things as I wanted to but long story short I spent only about 3 hours there today despite my intentions to spend a good 5-10 hours there. oh well as much as I want to go out and film something it's just so chilly here in my area. instead I'm gonna work here from home and possibly play some video games. I'm feeling great and motivated it just sucks that things are the way that they are right now but honestly, it's motivation for me to work harder. I have to work harder if I wanna get out of this situation. ugh, this weather is also bothering my immune system a bit. I've been waking up with cold like symptoms pretty much every day but I'm pretty sure I am not sick, yet. sooo... I...

3/2/2018 I'm on spring break! Finally. unfortunately I have not had my coffee and due to the current weather conditions here our power went out and I now cannot make my coffee :( despite running on little sleep I'm gonna make the best of today all starting with this post. I went to my classes and that as of course was a good start but now I'm finally doing what I actually want to be doing. hopefully you guys watched my newest video that I uploaded late last night, I'm hoping to upload another video over the weekend. I'm working hard guys, I'm working very hard. with recent personal issues I now value my time more than ever. right now, this moment, is all that matters to me. I want to be able to provide for myself and my family, to be able to do things that they honestly don't even think about and probably could not imagine. I have big goals and I'm ready to fight for them. I've been asking of the world for more time to focus on myself, the time ...

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

1/26/2018 oh my god. if this week was an example of how the next 14/15 weeks will be then my goodness we are in for it. my head is hurting yet again, i truly may need to go see a doctor at some point as all this stress is no good for sure. as it turns out, my semester is only maybe 16 weeks long and next week will be week 3 in which I will enter with about 25 hours completed at my internship. we're actually on track here and everything is going "okay" thus far. I for sure need to spend more time studying next week and maybe just maybe resting also, but we're doing well, we're surviving. financially, my goodness. that's another whole story but thankfully we're still in the green. I managed to not spend more than my income for the month and hopefully this check will reflect a little more money than normal as I "clocked in" for the training this week. that's maybe an extra 5 hours to the 10 I usually get paid for every two weeks. emotional...

1/19/2018 Another blessed Friday, I don't have much to say besides the fact that I'm very thankful. Very happy to have been here for 23 years now and hopefully for another 23 years of fun and good memories. Thanks for reading and I'll see you tomorrow

1/18/2018 Man, time sure does fly by. I'll be 23 years old in about 4 hours (my time lol). I don't recall to every second what I was doing just 17 days ago on the first day of this year but I darn sure cannot believe believe that it's already 19 days into the year. It's already my birthday 😅 Out of everything I've documented and shared and have talked on, I am more or less just ready for change in life. And not just any change but change for the better. I want to begin enjoying life and not saying that I haven't been or that I feel as if I'm working towards a point where I'd finally be able to enjoy life. Rather, I want to now begin making the best out of my time. School has been nothing but stressful and annoying for me these past 20+ years honestly but here we are at the edge of the bridge, the end of the road. And then the question is what's next? I want to travel, even if it's just down to the local beach. I want to get out more and ju...

1/17/2018 welp guys I've done it, I think. I'm finally building a voice for myself that ultimately says that I want to live life on my own terms, no one will sway me from my path. I'm building a voice that says that I have the power to make my own choices based on what I believe in. Further more, I support those that are good people and may also be on a path of success but I don't support dark, evil people. If you keep up with my YouTube channel, I'm about to upload a new video. The professor from the class that I talked about relentlessly here on this blog, the class I'll be retaking, I received a 67.49 as my final grade which translate to a D. As per the rules of my degree program at VCU I must receive a C in all my major classes to pass. The lowest grade to be categorized as a C in this class is a 67.99, half a point away from what I got. I am not mad, I am not angry, I'm pissed the hell off. I'm not even gonna mention anymore on the topic, yo...

1/16/2018 I somehow managed to not write a post yesterday. It was quite an odd day though to be honest, my first "long" day at my new internship site. The day started with me rushing to get things done for the internship followed by rushing to get there only to then not have to do much. Thankfully my supervisor is pretty relaxed and relatable, he's even offered to allow me to do some work from home for the internship and he'll sign off on those hours. That would've never had happened with my previous internship. Anyways, I don't recall sleeping at all last night, as usual I struggle to sleep when I have to be up early the next day. It was quite an odd Monday, but life in general is about to become more uncomfortable for the next 4 months at least and I'm ready, I hope. So this post will serve as the make-up from yesterday and the actual post for today will be posted later this evening. I am so exciting to be building my online business. Here in this ...

1/14/2018 Start with the mindset; I CAN do this, I WILL do this Remind yourself of how great you are and how great you will be Set goals; for the day and for the next 10 years Come up with actionable plans and tasks to get you there Surround yourself with positive people that support you Level up daily "Level Up Daily" is one of the taglines on the hoodies/shirts in my store for a reason. All we can do is give our best and if you follow that formula above, with a few more details such as taking time off for rest and enjoying the moment, you can achieve anything. I run into hurdles all the time as we all do. But it's how you bounce back that defines your character which ultimately will determine whether you reach your goals or not. You control your future. Mistakes will happen, you will run into people that don't support you and/or are on a path of failure and just cause problems but you can't let this stuff sway you from your path. I follow the advice...

1/13/2018 As optimistic as I want to be I can't believe how quickly time moves. I'll be going into yet another semester of college in a few days and I honestly am just over it. I really could care less about completing my coursework and getting my degree. I love to learn and will always have a thirst for knowledge but some things I value more over others. Things that are more relevant for example, or things that quite frankly are more important to know. Something I've picked up from the most successful people that I believe most people will never truly understand and/or acknowledge as important to know involves the idea of not simply following the crowd. You shouldn't do it just because "everyone's doing it," and honestly you should do in life what you want to do. Everyone is on their own path and there has never been nor will there ever be a right way to do life. And quite honestly I believe that this formal education in college is just not for everyone...

1/11/2018 Another good Thursday, another day closer to freedom for me lol. Everyday is a great day and I believe that we should make the best of everyday we are fortunate to see; tomorrow isn't promised. I had a great time at my internship, got a little work done there and now I'm back at home. I have to work on my bad sleeping habits starting tonight honestly as I have to be up at 6am to play tennis. Finally guys, my goodness. I ordered something on the 7th and it finally was sent out for shipping as of tomorrow? It said, shipping date for shipped out on 1/12/2018 and last time I checked, that's tomorrow lol. Anyways that purchase was made purely for my social media stuff, it's a prop if you will, I'm so excited to have it and I now need to tend to everything else that needs attention. stuff to buy (cost related) items for business go-pro & accessories car mount for camera external hard drive website seat belt cover more clothes gifts for fa...

1/8/2018 Alright guys, today's post is just gonna be about me. It's gonna be about my story and how I've gotten where I am today, I will be going out early tomorrow to film a video where I'll be going over this same stuff. Hopefully I'll get that video out by tomorrow what I hope to be able to do is motivate others to make choices for themselves and to be able to not make the same silly mistakes I've made in life. Life is all about choices. We all know this. But not everyone is living their lives making choices for themselves or with themselves in consideration. I simply don't believe that we should have to live our lives making choices based on anyone but ourselves. Just because mom and dad don't see what you see doesn't mean that they're right and you're wrong. It frustrates me to continue living making choices that I honestly don't believe in, I'd rather not have been blessed to be in a position to have had this choice. I wou...

1/7/2018 Today's the first Sunday of the first month of the year. It also turns to be the first Sunday of the year 2018 and just so happens to be my birthday month (12 days away). It's another good day, another great start for another good week. Yesterday we got more views than normal yet again but I gave you guys barely a paragraph in that post so today at least will be different. I'll write 2 paragraphs lol. But seriously today was yet another good day, I didn't go out as I usually don't but despite sitting here all day I feel a lot more motivated than I did the past 2 days and I truly feel ready. I'm ready to make some moves, I'm ready to get to work, I've found my WHY again; not that I ever lost it. But tomorrow I'll be doing my first day at the internship, I'm looking forward to it both to honestly hurry up and get it over with and to get myself used to going. I really want to have a better attitude towards these things I'm involved ...

1.6.2018 I am so tired. I am doing way too much, working way too hard, and still not getting anywhere honestly. I woke up at 7am to go in the 6 degree weather to play tennis, all to make a little money because that's all I can think about now. My mind is so focused on building this business that I'm slowly going insane over it and tonight I for sure have to rest before I go crazy. I now know the exact beginning steps that I'll need to take to start this long awaited business that will make me very happy, make all this effort feel worth it, fulfill my goal of $3,000 a month before I graduate in May, and even eventually aid my efforts to become a millionaire and major global influencer. Alright guys, wasted more time. Tomorrow's post will be a good one, I will try to do 2 posts tomorrow. I must rest now. Until tomorrow.

1/4/2018 4 days into the New Year, wow. This is just amazing, it truly is amazing. When you really put things into perspective, 26 days from now or so we'll be entering the second month of the year. At least, when you really consider things in a binary form or in it's simplest form as numbers you really see how quickly time moves. random thought lol Anyways I spent my day with a good friend of mine and again as I've mentioned before, I am so thankful for moments like these. It all began with my hesitation to go out as the roads are messy with all the snow/ice (you'd know if you follow me on IG @rva_youtuber) followed by Lamar backing out to go work on our business stuff while at home which I really hope he was actually doing. After telling myself that I was just gonna go out, to enjoy the day with my friend I went out and did just that. We drove around, we froze a little as the high temperature for the day was only around 30 degrees with very high wind gusts, and we...

1/3/2018 Oh my goodness my video turned out so great, in my opinion. I absolutely love it, it didn't turn out perfectly, as nothing ever does, but I truly can't stop watching it. I really like the idea of it only being 5 minutes long also as I really want to begin producing much longer vlog like videos but initially, right now, it's all about capturing people's attention. Longer videos are harder to keep viewer interaction simply, we have way too many distractions to sit down and watch a 20 minute vlog unless we are really really passionate and excited about it. And that is how I want my videos to be described, but it takes time. I'm currently not gaining much attention in any form and although I remain patient as I work to continue creating content and learning, I am making every possible effort to gain viewership or at least I want to be. Okay so we've got a new video up, it took forever to create lol. I honestly give all credit to daily vloggers although ...

1/2/2018 2nd post for today. Gonna have to cut this one short as it's already 12:33am for Wednesday morning and I am scheduled to play tennis at 10am. I've been so busy editing my video, playing a little video games, and other boring stuff so time has just slipped by. I normally would provide a little more knowledge for the second post or that's what I hoped to do at least but my brain is already half asleep and I don't want to either bore you guys or provide random incorrect information. Apparently the actually tech companies behind Bitcoin and Crypto-currencies are what's really about to make the most gains worldwide. I currently have this video up by Bonner & Partners which I saw on my MSN homepage in which this guy who has referenced Silicon Valley and explained his superior knowledge on this stuff, says that people investing in bitcoin are not even close to making the real potential behind these new developments such as Bitcoin. They're not that new...
