Where to Start?

Hello All,

I have learned the importance of long-term and short-term planning. When you are chasing your dreams or lofty goals, you end up becoming very busy. It sounds great but if you are not careful you will find yourself doing a meaningless task or letting the important stuff slip through the cracks.

Planning for the long and short term can help stay on task and prioritize your workload. Every day I have to look at my long-term plan and short-term plan to make sure I'm getting the most bang for my buck.

Today I ran into a problem completing a task because it requires other tasks to be completed first, unfortunately, those task cannot be completed until a later date. This is frustrating because it left me at a standstill and I had to figure out what else to do.

When you are trying to start your own company with limited resources, you have to be resourceful and find something else to do that will contribute toward your goal. There is always something to be done so you always have to work on something Every day (no days off).

I have invested everything I have in this venture and the only safety net I have to fall back on is a Plan.

Thanks

Ramon

Crawl

Hello All, Last few weeks have been difficult, trying to get organized with family and business. I continue to have this battle with patience even though I believe that things are progressing at the right speed. I know that for success to be sustainable I must look at it like a child. First a child crawls, then walks, and finally runs. Business is the same way, as new entrepreneur trying to create and learn require time otherwise the business won't develop properly. Similarly, when I am stressed and down because I want to see faster progress or even when I feel like quitting, I just hang in there and take one step at at time. I basically crawl, walk, and than run back to sanity. Before you know it Im flying high again with enthusiasm. This is a lesson I will have to take with me on my journey in life. CRAWL, WALK, RUN 6/21/17, Ramon Reese

Frustrations

Hello all, The last 24 hours have been a little frustrating. I was both stressed and excited about our second periscope. I was up 2 hours prior to the live broadcast, however, we unable to put together a quality broadcast. Trying to broadcast live from Denver, and South America was a challenge for both my brother and I. We struggled to keep my brother live and being a novice I struggled to handle microphone issues. Unfortunately, I had to finish the broadcast and deal with microphone issues for 3 minutes live. Fortunately, we didn't have any viewers on during the live broadcast, however, I accidentally deleted the video so anyone wanting to see a replay will think that we were incompetent and failed to make a broadcast for our second episode during the scheduled time. I have spoken to my brother and we have created a plan to rectify these issues. After calming down I realize we should be grateful for discovering these issues now before we have actually gained a following. I...

Leftover

Hey all, Even though the thought of having leftovers seems to have a negative connotation, for most dishes leftovers seem to taste better in my opinion. Maybe it is because the flavor settled or maybe I didn't appreciate the flavor the first time. I'm starting to look at life that way. How many of us would risk it all to find our authentic selves? Meaning how many would give up our current way of life, the money, cars, and job for a chance to discover ourselves? How many would be satisfied with what is leftover after you get rid of glamour around stuff. It can be difficult to grasp but, we are not our money, we are not the stuff we accumulated, we are not our jobs. We were probably much happier before we accumulated that stuff we thought would enhance our lives and our identity. It took me a while to figure out that none of that stuff truly made me happy. Instead of being happy with myself I wanted what others had. Now, I am on a spiritual journey to help others through m...
