The Times: They are a changin'

So I'm sitting at home and my house is messy as hell. Maybe not totally completely absolutely a pig sty (I can still find clean clothes and clean dishes), but it stinks in here. I need to do something about it. I keep motivating myself and starting to clean stuff up then get pissed off and stop. I come back to the computer and check facebook, twitter and my tribalwars.net account (I'm in the process of taking someone's village right now). I digress though; this blog is supposed to be about how I'm working my way towards ever higher levels of success and it still is, but it's taking a turn. A tangent if you will that we'll follow until I deem necessary, mostly because I'm driving, and you're reading. So read on and allow me to vent my frustrations.

I've recently realized that I enjoy beer, so much so that I decided to start making some so that I could learn more about it. And low and behold I have stumbled upon something HUGE! I enjoy creating. Not just creating something for myself, but something that can be shared and enjoyed by others, including myself. It must be the part of me that wants to have constant positive feedback.

At any rate. I like beer. I'm enjoying learning about it and more importantly making it, drinking it and sharing it. So at some point in the next 10 years, I will open a brewery of my very own. In the mean time I'm working on creating a show about breweries, their brewers, owners and beer. The vision is good but I need to get the ball rolling a little harder on it so that I can actually produce something in the next month or two.

How though, with the good positive stuff that's going on in my life is it that my house is so messy right now? Why don't I feel like I'm getting any real help from those that in my opinion should be helping? Do we have completely different priorities? How do we fix that, or do I have to fix that? I'm just getting tired and frustrated. If things don't change soon, I'm going to have to 'fix' it all myself. If I do, it's not going to be pretty, pleasant or comfortable...

Mission of this Blog

Hi guys, I'm starting this blog in an effort to help other people be successful.

Over the last two years, I've listened and read to a lot of books and applied what they've taught in my life (I listen to audio books in my car and on the plane). Because of this I'm more in control of my finances, my personal relationships have grown stronger and I bought a house in October of 2008! I've also started working out and eating better so that I can be healthy and enjoy my success for a long time to come.

It hasn't been an easy process and I haven't always remembered to use what I've learned, but I eventually notice when I'm getting off track and remedy the situation. So this is my story and I hope it helps you or someone you know to improve something in their lives. It get's easier with time, I promise!
