So obviously the name of this blog has changed from "the clothes" to "the blog" because that's exactly what this is and that's how it's going to be used. If you're looking for the clothes, that site will be up soon. I'll definitely make sure you know about it. For this one, though, I plan to document the complete development of my brand- Stun: creativ and all the other ideas, plans and endeavors that I go for. It may turn into a bit of a brainstorming vomit area for me, but that's fine. I often feel better after I vomit.
Stun: creativ started as an idea for a guerrilla advertising firm. It still is. And, quite frankly, I think it could be amongst the best in the nation. I've got the vision, the ideas and the ingenuity to pull it off. Unfortunately, I don't have the clients. I know what you're saying, "Well get out there and find your f***ing clients then!" Very true. I'm not a great hustler when it comes to that. I'm working on it. I'm also working my ass off just to keep the lights on. That work is graphic design. I have a great passion for it. I'm good at it and honestly think it's the perfect career choice for me... especially now that I didn't get the job to watch over that tropical island for $125,000 a year. Damn! I thought I was a shoo-in... still a little bitter about it.
Anyway, with the seemingly popular clothing line that I "made", it is definitely going to go in that direction also. People love the squirrel. What can I say? The ongoing problem with most my ideas is that it takes money to make money, and I have none. My goal is to just get to $10,000. If I can get there, then I know I can get 100 times that. Yeah, I just said that. It's a little douchey, but it keeps me focused on long range goals which have always been something I wasn't very good at.
So, how am I going to do this? Good question. Right now I'm working on some monetary breathing room. Once I get that, phase one of the multi-tiered and plan can move forward starting with a couple websites, the clothing line, graphic design and even a dip into the Mexican restaurant industry a bit. And what about Stun:? It's still my baby. That is my final destination... almost, that island is still on my mind.
Okay, so now that I've gotten completely off track and have managed to confuse myself even a little, I guess what I'm saying is that "Let the journey begin." If you know me, then you know that I'm as stubborn as the day is long and now that I have some clarity and some direction, it's not a matter of if; just a matter of time. I couldn't live with myself if I stopped before I got what I wanted. It seems life tries to mold you into finding the path of least resistance and stay there. That's a bit of a problem for me. My frustration, I've figured out, is that I'm trying to mold the world to me. I gotta tell you, it's pretty damn fun trying. I want to do it for me. I want to do it for everyone that has helped me throughout my life. You know who you are. I'm taking everyone with me and I can't wait to get there.
**SPIT!!** AGH!!.... vomit out. Mission accomplished.
Until next time. Love y'all.
