This year is a check-list year. I just officially signed my book deal. Meaning pen to paper it’s 100% real. My due date is June 5th. I have been working on this thing for two years and now it’s time to polish it up, tie it together, make it sing, and turn it in. I have just over four months. I can do this! (Self-pep talk). My guess is it’ll come out early next year, but that’s up to the publisher. :) Of course I’ll let y'all know. . I’m also starting a company with a few of my friends. We’re tired of this ‘disposable economy,’ where everything is meant to be used once and thrown away. So we’re making something you’ll want to keep forever. I can’t talk specifically about it yet… but I’ll tell you in the spring. . These ideas of making something or becoming something… there’s such a weird chasm between dreaming and doing. It’s much smaller than you think… but it’s terrifying. I’m realizing that no one is going to give you permission to make or do something. No one is going to say 'you’re ready.’ That’s the trick of life. But it always starts with wanting. With needing to do something. With losing yourself if you don’t. If you say you’re gonna be something, and you start moving in that direction… sooner or later you’ll look around and realize you are the thing you pretended to be. As my roommate @kennyjamez says, “you can’t chase a dream if you don’t have a dream.” . This is beginning to sound like a basic Monday Mantra post… but it’s just how I feel today. Let me spew some excitement and a few cheesy hyperboles. Amen. Ok bye. . : @bn_______ (at Civil Coffee) -- source link
