Entrepreneurship

My Story

Born and raised in the blast furnace of Tucson, Arizona

My mission is to relentlessly embody a philosophy based on kindness, curiosity, self control, duality, selflessness, respect, and forgiveness.

 

To envision and inspire a future that is both imaginative and realistic in execution through actionable sequences. Everyone has their own version of an ideal future, and by asking powerful question the path becomes more clear.

What would this ideal future look like?

What would be the same, new?

What would have to change on the individual, societal, and planetary level?

What is the aesthetic, do I need to know it right away?

What might take it's place, does it have to stop?

I am not a perfect person, I have many struggles I face daily. When I am wrong, although it hurts my ego, I like to be corrected. When I get knocked down, I get up again. I do what is good for myself and others. I do not believe intelligence is locked to a scale, but rather is based on habit and trajectory. I drop what doesn't serve me. I believe love is eternal and boundaries are important. I acknowledge my privileges and align myself to my obligations and responsibilities.

I distribute my time to balance family, work, and life. I am grateful for what I have and I do not take anything for granted. I am aware that one day I may die and I choose not live a life of regret and wishful thinking.

 

I believe in cooperation, doing, boldness, learning, friendship, consistency, training, agility, rest, and organization. I believe in freedom of religion, information, peaceful assembly. I rarely give unsolicited advice unless the signal feels right.

I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another, nor ask another to live for mine.

In partnership, I know that two minds are better than one, and vulnerability and intimacy are the cornerstone of a strong individual. When I am single I do not blame others, and walk with confidence and candor on my own path. The life of an entrepreneur is mostly lonely, but that's not to say I can enjoy the company of friends.

I plot my consciousness on chaos and order and think in terms of elements and fundamental principles. My mind labels concepts that are dynamic in order to make sense of multiple abstractions. Negative connotations can taint and blind further details from these containers. I am open minded as to expand my awareness on my ignorance and I allow myself to change my mind but I am slow to do so unless I was foolish. I choose not to be arrogant, however I have strong stances on important viewpoints. I am aware all problems are mine but I can only do so much as an individual and will favor problems that incentivize me.

It is my perception that identify politics is mainly polarizing and unproductive. In which one side outcasts and will rarely listen to other sides with true intent to understand. I allow discussions with opposition and feel safe when my arguments are well thought out and not purely driven on emotion.

 

I am working towards having a positive impact but I am open to the idea that I could do just as much bad. I question authority, myself, and others. I read, write and meditate to fortify my mind. I can be hard on myself and sometimes push to far. I give appreciation to myself and others who share similar values. When lazy for too long, I prioritize and focus on gaining momentum. I do not need to remember everything even though I build memory maps and keep symbols for reminders.

When circumstances are difficult, I go through the motions and being an empath I know that my feelings are not always mine. My reaction to my feelings is what I control. When circumstances are comfortable for too long I tend to fall for petty problems and lose my edge. I reflect to be noble, imitate to understand, and experience to embody. I do not always love the work I do but the resources it earns, may lead to either greatness or compassion. When I am greedy or hesitant, I think about what it is I'm working towards, check my integrity, and start over.

A healthy diet with no, to little sugar as well as a variety of exercises, contributes to my long term success, however I am indulgent and will rarely partake in extreme distractions in which case I compensate for. I do not get hung up on situations outside of my control. If I do, I write to learn the lessons and move forward. For the scars that cut deep, I am aware it'll hurt my reputation and I forgive myself and keep working on what I have to offer the world.

I attempt to be a steward of justice, courage, temperance, and wisdom. I value beauty, excellence, but have the heart and leniency for shortcomings, mistakes, and understand that everyone is on their own journey. I am a believer that I am the average of the 5 people I spend the most time with.

I would like to do everything myself but know that a team and support group is essential. Nothing is forever and I cherish the good memories, learn from the bad, and forgive myself for the worst. Karma guides my consequences. I work towards leverage and pay kindness forward. When stones are cast my way, I do not throw them back, instead I be the bigger man. I will seek scientific truths and change my mind when I am wrong. I am not blinded by faith but have the faith to know that things may be better than expected.

 

By whitewashing these words to hell and back, I understand it is my responsibility to re-read and ask myself difficult questions and have difficult conversations to realign myself. Action will forever guide context. I am a product of my environment and society.
