If you’re a basketball fan, then you may have guessed that I’m writing this while watching the NBA All-Star Game. It’s probably the first time in 10 years I have sat down and watched the entire All-Star Weekend. It’s amazing to see people at...

Well, I finally got off my ass and did something. It feels so damn good. Not only did I have a super-productive week on the project I’m working on, but I also sold almost $1K in toys. Granted they were some of my most scalpery stuff with the highest secondary...

I think a lot of people secretly would love to be in my place at least for a while. It seems like a dream, being on a permanent vacation. However, what really messes with your head is how much you feel like you have to do and the battling priorities. I have a big...
