You know how folks always say to ājust stick to one thingā? Yeah, that's not really my vibe. Iām all about juggling different projects. I need that variety!ā
ā
La La mentioned it must be a bit of a struggleāand sheās got a point.ā
ā
Ever get that feeling like youāre meant to chase more than just one goal? Is it all about focus⦠or is it more about freedom?ā

Not only as a contractor but as a certified people pleaser. Iāve been known to go above and beyond. But Iām learning my limits. Everything wonāt look good to everyone that looks at it. Just make sure when you look at you, you smile. š
Contact me for your painting needs if you want to help me practice.
Certified Pens was amazing yesterday (yall go try to tell me it was last week and im not hearing it. I just woke up so it was yesterday.)
Anyways, Iām still in. Awe from yesterday. To have so many amazing people in the same room sharing their art and listening to others do the same.
Thank you so much to @klovethepoet for coming down to connect with the sharp pens family. Everyone who came out from different states to touch the stage.
Everyone who caught Ubers and drove from around the corner.
Thank you for showing up.
On another note. I canāt keep my books in. If you want a copy donāt wait until you see me. Hit my DM and reserve your copy now.
A snack tile job goes a long way when it comes to finishing a bathroom. Itās one of those things that make a person feel like things are coming together.
Connect with us if youāre in the middle of your project and just need that extra push.

If you seen The Pursuit of happyness with @willsmith I need your help with this one.
Did big man that helped him move still owe him the money?
Whatās the principle in the situation?
These days I been happy just doing the things that make me happy.
Many tears went into this book but I enjoyed the process throughly. Just as Iāve been enjoying the process of keeping true to the words I promised myself inside of it.
Just might cancel my schedule, curl up and read a good book.
@triplemmarketingllc did the cover.
Is there a way I can be a serial entrepreneur without doing business? Tracking every dollar, logging every mile, adjusting every agreement to fit the situation and not the vibe is becoming a lot to process on a daily basis.
Iām actually a numbers guy, so they donāt scare me. I just donāt care for going through loopholes to move money around and pay my friends to do stuff.
The more I dive into this lane Iām realizing itās not about the numbers. Itās about the lengthy process that was created to make the number game hard to understand to the average spender/merchant.
Listening to the banker explain the new rules and regulations was a quick reminder on why I do the work I do to pour into an alternative system.
If you doing business, tighten up your shit an do your research.
If you not huge on businesses or documentation, proper accounting etc. I suggest you go ahead and move to that off grid compound. This isnāt our game anymore.
Maybe I should have went to school for business instead of media.
Peace everyone, just wanted to put this message out for you guys. I will be the first to admit I donāt know what Iām doing half the time. But what I do know is you canāt control what anybody does in this world. Donāt let that stop you from putting out your art and doing what youāve been called to do.
I appreciate @duffy.visions and @mario_bell_ for helping me capture footage over the last few activations. In addition to what weāve captured during our scouting tour. There is a lot.
This is a public service announcement to you guys that the work sharp pens does is for the help the poet become their brand so they donāt have to depend on any other person or platform to monetize themselves.
Books, videos, merch, poem, these are all intellectual pieces of property. Yes once multiple people work on them they become a collaborative project. But in no way do we believe any artist who works on that project shouldnāt be able to utilize it to help their career.
Special note to the individual artist. Get your paperwork together. Thereās no telling who is playing fair these days. Trust the work you do and ask questions for clarity before signing up for things and definitely before signing agreements.
Thanks for coming to our ted talk.
