Split the hustle

Times been hard, times been hard. I'm not even gonna acknowledge the fact that it's been quite a while since the last post (although technically I just did) by saying "long time no see" or the slightly more ebonic "it's been a minute." But yeah man, all there is to report is that I'm just stayin' positive. Breaking down then breaking through like always. Mad opportunities have come and gone but I'm still standing, doing my best to snatch that gig that I've been looking for.

But now I feel different, now I'm working on both fronts. I feel like I'm just now realizing the gravity of the music thing and how it compliments this other personality of mine perfectly. I've been thinking: where's that fire that I used to have for this music thing? Sure I'm writing new songs and recording new videos and hittin' the guitar every so often, but man I used to be right on top of this gig-finding...much like I am with this god-forsaken job-hunt. It's got me thinking: accomplish one thing, and I will be more motivated to accomplish the next. So I've decided to evenly split the hustle, the amount of energy that goes into each respective venture. Put out those goals for myself on each front and then accomplish them one by one. Get a gig, find a job, write a song, make some money, release a CD, become an editor...

I guess the best thing to do is just stay moving no matter what. No dog ever peed on a moving car...Okay that's a little gross, but a much better sentiment that I wish I knew the source of is that "life is made up of little battles," and I think it's high time that I start winning...every single one of 'em.

Wish me luck.


Peace, love and positivity,
Joe
