Sustainable Stabilization

April 2025

First quarter is complete.

I couldn’t be happier about where I’m at now

My work is very fulfilling these days.

I truly am loving life so much.

Steve’s bday party was Saturday & honestly it was some of the most fun I’ve had in a long time.

I love that dude & the people he brings around.

He’s so accepting of everyone.

& knows how to have a grand time with anyone.

I feel so content with how my life is right now that it’s scary

I’m not doing the normal things that I was told to do like get married have kids etc.

it feels like I’m in the process of letting go…

Letting go of other people’s dreams for me

Sometimes i feel like society pushes things that don’t serve the season we’re in

eat the meat, spit out the bones.

I love my work

I love my workouts

I love hanging out with whoever I want to.

I love not feeling guilty about spending the time doin what I love.

Isn’t it invigorating—to see every view,

& still choose the one that’s true to you?

Flying back from Indianapolis

All I can think about is how I wish she was picking me up from the airport.

But she won’t be…

cuz we can’t seem to align

she’s still the only person I wanna be with.

After we spent last weekend together

& we were laying in bed after making love

It felt so right.

I didn’t want her to leave

I was so excited to be in her presence

& laugh & touch & talk some more.

I wanted to be with her even after I came

It wasn’t about the sex & that’s a magical feeling.

But why can’t we feel quite right together?

When these moments are so perfect

& neither one of us want it to end

I guess I know why…

Cause I always want more from her

More questions, more awareness, more affection

I’m so thirsty for it.

Maybe the question isn’t “How do I heal my heart?”

Maybe it’s “How do I let it grow in ways I never imagined?”

Maybe the antidote to heartbreak isn’t just healing—

Maybe it’s presence. connection. laughter. trust.

This is only my third entry this month.

I’ve been doing a lot of livin’

& that’s okay, but I do wanna write more consistently.

But you gotta live to have something to write about

Moving into the X hasn’t been as seamless as I wanted

having house-mates again is annoying.

The clutter, the dirty dishes, the guests etc.

been smokin more

been workin more.

Steve was gone for 14 days cause his father passed away but now he’s back

Freddie was gone in Denver for 4 months working but now he’s back

Now, Freddie & I spend our evenings watching Alex hormozi, grilling, grocery shopping and figuring out how to resell products on Amazon.

I’m really thankful for that dude and he’s probably the only person in this world I would start a business with.

I’ve been talking to ChatGPT a lot lately

Asking it how I can make more money, get out of debt, get shredded, sell more to my clients I currently have & provide more value to the brands I shoot for.

The new circle I have around me was SkyMD is pretty phenomenal.

Having a group of people who just are obsessed with business & building something that’s rad

& making money & being healthy.

I feel like I’m leveling up so fast right now.

Turning into an ad specialist, not just a videographer.

Turning into a creative strategist, not just the videographer.

Gave SkyMD multiple record sales days from my ads

which lead to a record month

LFG

What I make in a month,

They make in a day.

What a privilege it is to work with & learn from people so far ahead of me.

I’m deep in the weeds of business & self improvement.

This is a fun game to play, but it’s hard.

No one said it would be easy

& no one‘s making me play it.

It’s my choice

I’m happy with where I’m at so far in business but I want more.

I wanna break out of the 7-12k a month range.

I need better systems.

systems run businesses & people run systems.

Still talking to ChatGPT about how I can get better

I also asked Jay Dang who owns five star fitness and a med spa. Who’s been in business for 11 years how I can make more money.

I’m learning how to edit ads that convert but now I’m curious about learning how to publish them myself.

My next plan of action is to cultivate my relationship with Evan Woods.

Maybe I should schedule a phone call with Sivana & tap into her network. Maybe I’ll fly to Austin to meet with her.

Maybe reach out to Blake Takushi

One reason why I wanna be successful now is, to have a huge group of friends around me that I love

that I can grow with & grind with & take them out to dinner every freakin night & pay for it lol

in my groups I’ve never had like a solid group with multiple guys & girls.

It’s only ever been like me and the girl I’m dating and then another guy.

But i want a squad of crushers around me who i love.

I also feel like I’m waiting on some news right now so I can’t make any huge plans at the moment.

Time will tell.

-Socrates

This is such a beautiful season of life.

I wake up to Phoenix’s skyline, move my body, savor good coffee, & write from the heart.

I work on a brand I believe in, in an office that inspires me.

I train in a private gym, reset in saunas & cold plunges, & share meals at new restaurants with Steve.

I build dreams with a best friend and wind down with books at night.

Every part of my day is a choice — and that’s the real blessing.

I’m deeply thankful. I’m truly happy.

What am I learning in this season?

I’m learning how to be more than just a videographer.

I’m learning how to make video ads that convert to sales.

I’m learning how to prepare & plan for shoots like big brands expect & not just wing it like a freelancer.

I’m learning how to stay on top of Communication while working with a team.

I’m learning how much work it takes to build a successful company.

I’m learning how important good business partners are

I’m learning how to not dwell in stressful states of business

I’m learning how important giving your body nutrients & minerals is

I’m learning I can work longer if I love what I’m working on.

April, you were a good one

But May is already better 😏
