7 Powerful Positivity Practices You Can Start Immediately

Positivity makes everything better. Sometimes, when you’re down, you just have to trick yourself into being positive. Even if your initial positive thoughts are fake or forced, they will eventually become genuine. Optimism and positivity are so important to an entrepreneur’s daily life, yet they are so easy to overlook. When you’re struggling to figure out what to do, when you’re struggling to make money, it’s easy to get down. But, just like I wrote about with productivity last week, Read More …

3 Easy Secrets for Actually Beating Procrastination, Guaranteed

I’d like to talk a little bit about productivity and beating procrastination. While I think the terms and diagnoses (whether fake or self-diagnosed) are thrown around far too liberally these days, I do believe in ADD in adults. I was officially diagnosed when I was about 17 and spent the better part of 8 or 9 years taking Adderall to combat this. As you can read on my other website (that I’m working to revamp currently), I didn’t like the way Read More …

My New Morning Routine: An Entrepreneur’s Quest for Ultimate Productivity, Happiness, and Fulfillment

I’ve never been a morning person. In fact, I’ve always been an extreme night owl and had little-to-no morning routine. I feel that the height of my creativity happens after 9pm and I am most excited late at night. While this works really well for my musician life and could potentially be doable in my blogger life, it doesn’t necessarily work well for having a wife, a dog, friends, family, and a real life. While I’ve never been good at sleeping Read More …

Quick Update 2/15/16: Weekend Catch-up

I took a little weekend break from writing, but here’s a quick catch-up since my last note.  Saturday was mainly a non-work day. My nephew’s birthday party was in the morning, so Meag and I went up to Orange County for that, met her mom for lunch, then sat in gnarly traffic trying to get home to San Diego. At night, we had a nice hang with one of our best friends (and now neighbor) Danielle. Boring for you reading Read More …

Quick Update 2/12/16

Here it is, day 2 in my “posting every day no matter how boring it is” quick update series I made some more progress in my business today and I feel great! My main task for today was to finalize the first bonus offer for the guitar book. After that, I did some more writing in the third bonus (I’m about 80% done with the second) and took care of a few other things relating to freelance and musician work. After Read More …

Quick (sort of…) Update 2/11/16

Hello lovely people, A heck of a lot has happened since I last wrote to you. First of all, I didn’t launch! Then the holidays happened. Then I didn’t launch again in January like I tentatively planned (I didn’t even tell you about that, did I?). Then I got married and went on a honeymoon. Yeah, I got freaking married! And now here we are. But let’s back up ever so slightly and talk about my wedding. I married my Read More …
