Journal for Sunday, June 14th, 2009

Today was the end of my weekend vacation at my cousin’s. I had fun talking law & entrepreneurship with a relative today. Overall, my trip was a great getaway and source of variety at this time of constant business for me. Hopefully, it will leverage itself into relatively longer lasting momentum. When I got home, I spent some time getting organized. I had a business meeting tonight and am back to work making progress on a current deal. On an unrelated note, I received a random squeezing of the ass today! :razz:

I had another fun day on vacation at my cousin’s house. I was able to get some legal work done too on an upcoming equity swap buyout deal. Had some awesome conversations with my cousin today about life, humanity, business, websites, relationships, etc. These are always fun times. :D

I had an awesome day on vacation at my cousin’s house. I stayed up all night & day from yesterday for a total of about 32+ hours. Today, we had some awesome talks about life & business, played basketball, went swimming, went out to dinner for pizza, developed a new personal website for my cousin, watched hockey, and more. I didn’t get much work done today but had a good amount of fun. Looking forward to much more fun this weekend on vacation! :D

A short day today due to my sleep schedule and getting ready to go on vacation this weekend. I was able to get a little bit of work done in preparation for being away on vacation soon. Also, I spent some time packing for my trip. I tried to go to sleep early so I could be rested for my departure tomorrow, however, wasn’t tired enough to sleep, so I stayed up through tomorrow.

Overall, I had a good day today. Didn’t do that much, but I did take a few hours to work on my personal website later on. Spent some time going page by page and tweaking a few things. Always love the thought of improving my personal website more & more! I also took a fun bike ride. I really like a lot of things about my neighborhood and riding my bike around it can help create a good state of mind within me.

Thursday @ 4:24am ET – Working on further developing my personal website, brianwatkins.com. :)

Very good day today! I received confirmation that I will be doing a minor equity buyout deal very soon. This is the deal that I mentioned recently and is now likely going to enable me to start creating & publishing multimedia content on a regular basis on the subjects that I am passionate about. I’m super excited for this and it is long overdue! :D However, I have to wrap up a few more business projects that are currently on my plate before I can really get this going, so expect to possibly start seeing something around this July or August.

Beyond that equity & multimedia deal, I also had a couple other wins today. First, I was able to devise a marketing strategy that I think will convert well for an upcoming business campaign and am excited to implement it ASAP. Secondly, I believe I made notable progress on cracking the code to my extreme long-term happiness by making a distinction for some macro factors that would predictably put me into an ultra peak state of mind. I was able to simulate the perception of these factors today within my mindset and I lit up like a christmas tree! I hacked around throughout the logic and built a strategic understanding of this occurrence that I think will be a powerful force for creating happiness throughout my future. So awesome have wins like this when engineering happiness! :D

Journal for Monday, June 8th, 2009

Today was a good solid, diligent, and partly fun day for me. In the beginning of my day, I hammered out a system that will streamline member signup & initiation for a startup company of mine.

After that, I decided to take a shower and while taking a shower, like many others, I came up with a pretty cool idea for a future big business opportunity. However, the cool thing about it is that I can start building on it now with one of my current ventures. I naturally like this business more than others and think it could be a massive opportunity. It won’t affect my plans much at this point, but it reaffirms my commitment to that business of mine. With that perspective, I decided to work on optimizing strategy for that business, which I was able to do a bit.

Along with business, I spent some time thinking about my happiness and was able to advance my perspective on the infrastructure that I can use to create outrageous happiness in life. These distinctions were really awesome to see come together like they did today!

Today’s Notes

Tuesday @ 5:18am ET – Wanting to compete with the giants of the internet. I think I found a business that can predictably grow big from a startup. Need to seize this opportunity. :D

Kind of a slow day today. Spent most of the day organizing, studying, and thinking. Had a couple hour business meeting later on today that was good. I want to get better at lifting the momentum in days like this, because ultimately it is a waste. However, it is good that things are moving forward. :)

Today was solid for me. There were four primary good parts to my day today. These were… I finished up some business legal work that had been lingering for weeks now, which felt good to be done with. I was able to formulate some key perspectives of mine towards modern marketing that will likely be valuable. I got really motivated for progressing further and achieving more in life. I advanced my perspective on the mindset & focus I should currently have in life & achievement.

It is around 10am ET on Sunday where I’m getting tired enough to go to bed now. I wish I could stay up and keep progressing in this mindset I have.

I had a day planned of business work, however, I got motivated to work on rebuilding my amateur production studio and spent most of my day tackling that instead. I designed a new physical setup that works better and spent a lot more of my time setting up my software environment on my Windows 7 installation. This was kind of a pain, but eventually got everything working on a basic level that will be acceptable. I’m excited about the likelihood of producing multimedia content online soon and that is what motivated me to rebuild my production studio today. Now, tomorrow, I’m going to have to play catchup on the business end of my work. Overall, good day!

Current Status Updates

Friday @ 4:45pm ET – Trying to install this XP Mode virtual environment in Windows 7. Hope it works so I don’t have to revert back to Windows Vista.

Saturday @ 1:28am ET – Making dinner and rebuilding my production studio. Fun! :)
