My oh my oh my. All I want to do at this point is sleep, something that I feel has been lacking ALLOT lately. But who needs sleep anyways, it is quite overrated… I think. No matter. Currently my life is on a pretty good track with the whole 5M plans. It looks like ArisTech Media has built a million dollar platform and media framework that we hope to be rolling out in the next few months that has already produced some amazing and financially successful opportunities that we are taking advantage of and will hopefully be reaping the full results by the end of the year. It looks like Mike M. my sunsei, will finally be working with ArisTech Media on a concurrent basis. Read more »
Day #2: Import Companies
So today is Day #2 of my crazy adventure to building a five million dollar empire before I am 23. My day was spent in meetings after meetings with Brazilian import companies and the rest of the day with Mike, the COO of OZERO International. For those who don’t already know what OZERO International is, it is an international investment company focuses on various forms of finance and trade, such as import/export, holdings, private equity and venture capital. Sounds big and glorious, but everything is at the start-up level and is on a path of, hopefully, immense growth over the next year in a half. We are currently working on U.S. product exportations to Brazil under some very unique methodologies and framework that we have created that will hopefully give us a very advantageous edge in the booming Brazilian economy. Hopefully. Read more »
My Life. Now.
How do I start this post? Well, over the past few months, I have been working on a handful of ‘strategic’ projects within two of my main companies: ArisTech Media Corporation and OZERO International. Over these past few months, I have been placing these two companies in place to really achieve a level of success worthy of their place in this world. It is with this mindset that as of now, my goal over these next couple years will be to bring both these companies, along with a stealth project I am still working on, to fruition and ratio of success that will enable a good platform for long-term growth.

Sensei Muse #1
So this morning I received two interesting emails from my Sensei, that went something like this:
The Beauty of Youth
I want to pose a question: what is it that makes a relationship between two young and youthful spirits beauitful. When I say beautiful, I refer to the essence that shines from their every move together that just exaults their true passion for each other. Read more »
Project ANAFE
So per my discussions with some producers (I will leave their names out for the time being until everything is finalized), I have taken part of the day to start the script for Project ANAFE. Project ANAFE has been a concept that MindHaven Studios has been working on for some time now. Read more »
Marketing Thinking
My consulting philosophy is rooted in the “teach them to fish” school of thought, and I tell prospective clients when making a proposal that my goal is to work myself out of a job. In other words, my value is not just in conceiving and executing a marketing strategy but in sharing with a client’s employees what I’ve learned over several years of experimenting with social media. The key areas of which I focus on are as follows: Read more »
Sailing
Ever since I was a young little lad, I have always retained a desire to purchase an old, 30 foot sailboat to restore into a technological work of art that I could use to sail down the coasts of America and in particular, to the Panama Islands. Turning the boat into a self-sustaining home, from desalination to wind and solar power, would allow me to retain independence from resources for weeks/months. This would provide me the freedom to sail as long as I need and more importantly, stay long at each island I happen to come across (I done some good charting in my day). Overall, something that would fit right into my characteristics of insanity. Read more »
Hurley Event
Hurley and Nike have recently bonded together in the creation of a revolutionary pair of boardshorts called the Hurley Phantoms with Nike Flywire. All in all, a pretty great sounding pair of shorts. It is because of this that Hurley has decided to put on an event that would represent these shorts under the light of pure fame and fortune. This upcoming Saturday (April 10th, 2010), Hurley is putting on this event called “Upgrade Your Boardshorts” which will promote it’s new boardshorts through contests, free Hurley gear, food, live DJ, the Hurley Surf & Skate team, an INDO dream trip, and more.

The Office Visit
Over the past few weeks, I have been visiting the hospital, and most recently, the dentists’ office, for a few routine checkups, in particular, regarding my broken clavicle. These office visits, as most of you know, require a fair amount of time. As I was contemplating this, my mind came to the realization that the majority of this time was actually spent, not in the waiting room, but in my actual ‘checkup’ room, with me laid upon my back, staring blankly at the ceiling.
