Did you ever think you were awesome? 🤦

Not the kind of awesome that you are by being here right now on a platform that could change the future, but the kind of awesome that is egotistical and offensive to almost everyone forced to be in your presence. When I was younger, an ooze of pretentious entitlement leaked from my pores that frankly, I"m offended by when I see it in others now. I used to think I was awesome.

Did it come from Star Wars?

Who was your favorite Star Wars character growing up?

Mine was Luke.

A simple farm boy that accidentally discovered he was the most important person in the universe (kind of).

I thought maybe I was the most important person in the universe. I thought somehow I could change the world. I thought war and lying were stupid, and if we all just told the truth there would be peace. 

I was an idiot

I was so naive. The world should work like an easily figureoutable (I probably spelled like this back then too) board game, or video game. 

As I grew up I finally realized that maybe I didn't know everything. I began the process of learning things on my own. 

Before there was google and a phone with access to all of the information in the world in your pocket, I studied using mostly books, video tapes, and real world practice.

I learned...

🎵 Music theory 

🎸 How to play guitar

🎭 Performing (in a band and from theater)

🔊 Audio Production

✍️ How to write (this was mostly from school)

🖥️  Some computer coding (mostly on a TI-82 graphic calculator)

When the internet finally showed up, I learned a small amount of...

🔭 Physics and 

🔬 Quantum physics

🧘 Meditation, spirituality and 

💪 Diet and excersize

and more recently...

🎂 Baking

🎙️ Voiceover

📷 Basic photography

📹 Video and photo editing

🤳 ...and a little marketing and personal branding

and more importantly about...

Steem and other blockchain technologies, of which I have zero stake in (at the moment).

Also, I love coffee.

☕

Follow me to learn more about my journey on how we can use our cumulative skills together to make the world a better place. 

P.S.

maybe Luke is the center of the universe 

I love Star Wars and look forward to giving you a full report of the new episode.
