A quick update, and new direction

Ok, lol. I’ll stop making promises on when I’ll write, and just try to keep it flowing. I’ve been doing a lot of writing on other mediums lately and I like the approach of just jotting a bunch of stuff down as it flows. I’ve had success in almost every regard this year by deciding to just take the approach I prefer, so maybe it’ll work for this as well.

A New Direction

For those of you who don’t know, I stopped taking on new client work at the start of the year, and spent the first half of the year actually making that happen. There were a few straggling projects towards the end of the year, but I’ve successfully been able to transition to my own workload again full-time. No more stressing on client work, now I’ll have project managers handling new jobs, and several talented developers, in addition to myself, banging out the code.

A New Ride

Some of you who know me personally know I traded my old Lexus IS300 for a G35 after my brother bought it and couldn’t swallow the maintenance. After trading, I pretty much hated it, but don’t have the cash in the bank to throw down on the Twin Turbo Gallardo yet, so I traded it in for a new IS250. So far, I’m loving the new ride.. way better than the piece of crap it replaced. Not as fast as my usual ride, and the first silver car I’ve ever owned (yeah, yeah, hater’s gonna hate on the all-too-common color, haha) … I know… but it’s comfortable, and has a warranty for the next 5 years.

A New Focus

Basically, I’m not going to focus on cars or lifestyle for the time being, and plan on putting the majority of my time and attention to my work. Then the fun can begin again, besides.. I already have 6 cars, 2 trucks, several successful businesses, and a stack of bills. That’s more than one ride for everyday of the week, and I barely even leave my home office at the moment!

I’ve written very little in terms of creative outlet, or private journals lately, so it’d be nice to get caught up on some of the cool things I have happening in my life right now. Whether it’s because I’ve just had too much going on with my businesses, or just prefer to keep my thoughts to myself… who knows. I think I’m going to begin expanding my presence in the affiliate marketing industry this coming year, so it’d be good to get some stuff on the site for the online marketing crowd. As birdman would put, I’m all about my money, I’m all about my grind. I’ve pretty much always neglected the majority of my personal projects for client work and my network sites, figuring it put more money in my pocket, and faster. I’ll admit, all these years.. I was wrong.

Big Plans for 2011

It turns out, it’s better in the big scale of things to be one of the guys running the game, so I think I’m going to take that approach. Talk is cheap, but putting things together, and making things happen is my specialty. I know I’ll be in good company, and I know there’s plenty of room for all of us.

As most of my longtime friends and readers are aware of by now,

when I put my mind towards something, it happens.

It’s only a matter of time.
