I subscribe to a lot of things Gary Vee preaches. The first thing I ever heard him talk about was not doing things you hate and focus on your strengths.

I’ve always been really good at everything I’ve ever done. That’s not to brag but it is very true. But when I think about it there’s an obvious reason and that’s because I invested my time only into things I was good at. So of course I was going to excel.

People waste their time on things that everyone else is doing even when they know on their heart it’s not something they’re really invested in. But they feel like they need to be the same as everyone maybe due to the fear of doing something different and not succeeding. 

To me it makes obvious sense – do what you love and you’ll most likely still face hardship BUT you’ll keep going and ultimately succeed.

I finally got a neck strap for my Vlogging camera! It’s only taken me a few months to source one and when it arrived today I realised its the wrong type 😢

So I found a workaround by using the key rings off my keychain to attach it

It’s not flash but it works and will allow me to shoot hands free point of view stuff. Can’t wait to try it out tomorrow.

Something that cracks me up is the constant use of hashtags people associate with doing more.

The other night I had a crap sleep and woke up feeling umm crappy. I’d done a really long day and had a bad dream that kept me awake most of the night. 

There was no way I was gonna train and it led me to make some poor choices ie; buying an apple slice to add to my lunch 

because I felt hungry due to being tired. Then it got me thinking is being on #TeamNoSleep really a good thing?

I didn’t train, my eating was poor, my mood was up and down and then o needed to take a nap when I got home from work. Shit.

So I wouldn’t recommend subscribing to #TeamNoSleep because you end up on #TeamPoorChoices and #TeamNoProduction

If I’m not busy I’m not happy. I enjoy filling my day up with things Continue reading Keep Busy 

I’m inspired by Bex and Siobaun’s friend Sally. Only 3 weeks ago she was diagnosed with cancer and before she even had time to process it she underwent 3 major surgeries in a week.

Like wtf?!?!

I hear she’s in the best of spirits considering and has got a lot of support from her family of course.

Just another reminder for me. If I had any reason to complain it’s not even close to what Sally must be feeling. So I don’t. It’s that simple, quit the complaining, focus on what you have to do and not what ‘might’ happen.

Thanks for the reminder Sally you’re my inspiration today.

Had the whanau here for the last 2 weeks and feel refreshed and ready to attack ‘it’!!

There’s always a lot going on which can sometimes feel overwhelming but I know I’d rather have it that way than finding myself just ‘killing time’. So I sit down, gather my thoughts and take a deep breath because I’m built to do this shit.

I’ve always known that my purpose was different to anyone I know. I’m suppose to do something different, I’m suppose to lead the way. So let’s do that.

When I’ve finished creating my son’s interactive YouTube series and people start tuning in religiously I’ll look back and remember that I created it in the back of my van.
