Life is one hell of a scary prospect, and then you grow up and realize it's even more of an evil beast than you've ever imagined in your worst nightmares. There are those few who walk among us with peaceful, zen-like smiles of contentment on their faces, but overall, we all live with some sort of crippling fear that affects our daily existence. Don't make enough money? Well, you're most likely worried sick about how to put food on the table for you and/or your family. Wiping your arse with cash? Congratulations! You're most likely consumed by stress from that "lucky" promotion you nabbed, and all the responsibilities that came along with it. So the eternal question is: what makes a person happy and content on a full-time basis?
This is where a normal writer would begin to examine the question posed in the last sentence of the last paragraph, but I'm far from normal, and I'm not even a 'real' writer. The only purpose of this otherwise useless post is to stimulate thought in my stagnating brain and soul, and hopefully generate some energy that will manifest forward progress. To be even more clear, my ultimate goal is to figure out how to live life without being beset by fear on an at least once-per-day basis. Quite simply, fear sucks. Why not see what I can do about getting it the f%*k out of my life?
For now...

2009 Is Gonna Be Goooood
The winds of change are blowin', and they are blowin' fast and strong. I'm not just talking about the inauguration of our 44th president today either. No folks, things will be all shook up on Calle My Name by the end of 2009 as well. And I'm not just talking about a few minor tweaks either.
The first thing that will happen to me this year will be me making some money for writing. I can hear you all laughing at me through my computer screen as I write this, but mark my words, it will happen. I'm not going to tell you how much I'll make, because, well, it's none of your business, but suffice to say that what I will earn is both modest and ambitious (don't tell me what makes sense and what doesn't, pal). Next on the list is getting back in all-around shape. In other words, I will feel good in la cabeza, physically, and spiritually. I'm no historian, but I'll go out on a limb and state that nobody ever manifested their dreams while feeling shitty 50% of the time. I don't know, it's just a hunch. Finally, at least in terms of major progress, I will set plans in motion to be working for myself in 2010. This means at least knowing what sort of business I will be getting into, as well as meeting anyone I may be partnering with in my quest to rule the world.
So there's that. Nothing fancy, just direct predictions of what my main visions for progress are. And I emphasize the word "visions" because I can already see these things happening. It's not a matter of "If", but "when" during the year I can check them all off the list. Belief is a beautiful thing, people. I encourage you to give it a try sometime.
