And stretch! Coffee already in, mushrooms and eggs in the pan, itโs predictable start Phil batting up at the plate again, time for breakfast and the usual morning chores, you know the score and back into the mix, quite literally, the next few days should be relatively easy however as Iโve only got really one client job to finish before Wednesday and Iโve already done a mockup walkthrough storyboard for it.
Iโd like to finish up on the steemit collaborative video as well, should get the final clips in for that so I can tweak the audio levels and music score and put out a post about that this week, finalise it and then move onto the next little video project before returning to a new year, new start version in january when the majority of people are having down time and re-adjusting from christmas, I feel a lot of people are going to come into the new year however will full force of crypto power, I donโt know about you but crypto has certainly changed my life for the better.
i'd love it if you picked a line and helped me finish this video this week. .. .
thoughts of that four year window
so I had decided two years back that I would have to get everything sorted out in the next four years, Iโm already two years in an half way through this year I was kinda stressed about not being where I felt I should be, to have activated all the areas that I needed to and have access to resources to make the jumps happen โ I feel 2018 will be a very important year not only for me but for the rest of us, itโs a water shed moment.
My gut instinct is telling me that we should consider to be agile, resources independent and have a certain level of mobility, treat crypto coins like access and identification and support those decentralised projects that you believe can fundamentally change parts of society at the core level that need to be opened up and exposed for the money suck that they are, the era of the social decentralised disrupter and connector is getting more powerful each day, blockchains that will talk to other blockchains are just around the corner and god knows what that will bring us.

Iโm keen to have a van and another base camp location to be at way before Brexit really kicks in, Iโm keen to support dayle with whatever endeavours she feels comfort applying herself in too โ we had a number of discussions about things that could happen in Europe from Spain, Portugal, Estonia and Bulgaria, we are certainly keeping our options open and fluid and this next will be a turning point in applying our research and doing a number of reccy trips to check some of those ideas out. It should have been this year but we didโnt have the resources, next year we will.
experiments in progress
Oh yeah forgot to write about this so far because we only just pulled the trigger on it before of a new client and we already got part of the months funds but we put some of our rent into a holding fun that we can pull out again in a few times โ worse case result is that we lose ยฃ10 on it and great result would be that we make enough to cover the complete rent.
I know that sounds like we are gambling funds that we canโt afford to lose but actually itโs more about testing a platform and keeping those funds safe away from our current card setup so we donโt get a bill come in or confuse funds over christmas, at this stage we are ahead of the curve with that stuff and that feels like a big weight of my shoulders that we can actually enjoy christmas for what it is rather than be stressed about it.
Maybe itโs because dayles here or that Ella is healthy and doing great at school, maybe itโs the crypto finances that are keeping me focused or just that things seem to be on an upswing but Iโm actually feeling relatively happy for once and for a forth something usual grouchy bloke thatโs pretty darn good, I feel like I can be more open, compassionate and park my own needs to one side and live a little more full at the moment if you understand my meaning โ december and christmas can often be so dark and overwhelming but Iโm enjoying life right now ;)
ok, time to crush this week
breakfast done, soma.fm pumping out some nice chilled beats this morning, time for a quick two hour sprint before lunchtime, I have a screencast to get out today so Iโm gonna spend a little time before that on some videos for @teamvideo and then get into that, work on some social media insta stuff for dayle client (we spent a lot of time on setup yesterday) in google spreadsheets, buffer and trello so thatโs progress.
Donโt think we have to go anywhere until the middle of the week but maybe tomorrow Iโll try and get my car out of the mud, if nothing else that will make for an interesting video, poor thing :)
