Now

Welcome, this is a ‘Now Page’ inspired by Derek Sivers and designed to show you what I’m currently working on at this phase in my life.

LATE 2023

Currently obsessed with writing my non-fiction book about the mind, body & soul. Brainstorming the bonus’s and newsletter giveaways etc. Writing scripts and planning ideas for some comic’s based around my avatar while i refine my sketching ability. Planning a work of fiction & reading fiction for the first time after reading 600+ non fiction books, now realising how powerful it can be to spread a message. Clearing the last of my e-commerce stock this Q4 so I can focus on educational products, art merchandise, educational content on this site & then finally get back into mixing and mastering my studio album.

March 2023

Home improvement
Wi-Fi issues continued until the 8th march, I’ve been disconnected from reality so long, life is very very peaceful without internet I must say, although I do use it as my main sources of income so it is like a kick in the balls at times. 

Spirituality
I went to a white light spiritual event, there was a huge clear quartz crystal at the entrance, I’ve never felt an energy like it before, it beamed such a calming effect, the moment I stepped out of that aura and inside it felt like absolute chaos energy wise. I can physically feel the aura’s or energy field of crystals.

Book
I’ve drifted from working on the contents of the book to learning more stuff again, its a bad habit. I tend to spend my days learning and disregard the work that moves the needle. Everything I’m learning is important for the book and massively important for a growth stage I’m going through now so the direction I zig zag in seems to be divinely inspired & relevent. 

Journaling
To track the weird stuff that happens to me on a daily basis Ive started making notes of the things that happen in my day, any dreams I have, anything I’m grateful for that day & any psychic or spiritual occurrences that happen, noting down any form of communication from spirit, from touch, to visions, to chatter. 

Bliss state
I managed to reach the state of bliss again this month, some may call it enlightenment, some may call it a kundalini awakening, I’ve journaled the exact process I followed so that I can share it with you all soon enough. 

February 2023

Home improvement 
Its been a busy month, faulty boiler, faulty electric, faulty internet, its like the house has been falling to bits, its been a major setback to the projects, I had no internet for 10 days straight, which led me to completely re-evaluate the ways I spend my days. 

Religion 
I’ve finished the first 5 books in the bible (The Books of Moses), really enjoyed it so far, its way way grittier than I ever imagined, lots of “death”, betrayal, sinning. The Old Testament god seems to be a very vengeful jealous god not someone you would want to piss off for sure.

Religion Continued
My sudden interest in religion led me to “The Chosen” series about the return of Jesus Christ, enjoying that too, seeing Jesus perform miracles & turn non believers into believers is awesome. 

January 2023

Website 
I had errors trying to integrate products into my woo commerce store, dealing with 10+ customer service agents for weeks, all recommending developers or private dedicated servers, after contemplating that I may need to separate my blog from my store. Run double the websites, double the social media, double the marketing, double the costs… I was getting annoyed. After 2+ weeks wasted I checked YouTube and solved it in 10 mins with 2 lines of code. This is one reason I’ve always take pride in exceptional customer service, the incompetence of everyone I dealt with almost had me altering my vision, which in the long run would have affected my impact drastically.

Book 
I’ve planned out the full contents of my book, still working on the order. I must say it was incredibly tedious and a long process trying to work out what should go where in my book, I’m not sure if the amount of content I have planned is going to fit in one book, or if I need to separate the content into multiple books. 

Reading 
I started reading the bible out of curiosity. A book that has withstood the rise of empires and the fall of civilisations. Honestly it’s a terrible read so far but I must say, I am absolutely fascinated, reading away like Sherlock Holmes looking for clues, I plan to read other religious books too. 

December 2022

Writing 
I planned out my first book idea, it was a long process and I still have to organise the contents, exciting stuff. 

Music 
I was having some issues with old songs randomly moving out of key, every time I’d open a project I’d be thinking “wait Im sure it didn’t sound like this”, I’d be checking every plugin, channel strip, automation, I’d fix the issue on one track then realise something else was out of key, after wasting countless hours gong in circles, I realised a pitch wheel on a keyboard I’ve not used in over a year was changing which ever track I had selected out of key. Glad its resolved but it literally set me back months and even caused me to move some projects into an archive. 

Merchandise
Tested some new designs this month, testing on hoodies to see the print quality, with some past orders the hoody doesn’t print as well as the T-shirts, which is disappointing when your designs are focused around vivid colours schemes. 

Notes 
I organised all my notes, 3000+ of educational content that I’ve accumulated over 10+ years, I’m in a much more organised head space now for when I start releasing content 

Kundalini Awakening 
This is something I truly never thought I would be saying as I thought clairvoyance skills were something  people were born with. Until one day I started feeling energy, hearing voices, seeing orbs, blue mist, unknown people in my minds eye. When this happened I literally had to stop all my work, I went down a rabbit hole of information trying to understand what was happening to me. Craziest moment of 2022 for sure. 

November 2022

Content
I’ve been trying to work out how I can create content that I love that is also google friendly. For example here’s a few headlines for content ideas I have “Red Velvet Branding Secrets” “The Rise Of The Spartan Warrior & The Sacrificial Lamb” “Parasitic Feedback Loops Of The Mind” – sadly nobody is searching terms like the above.. so it seems this kind of content will be best for my newsletter. That leaves me with a traffic problem, I do not want to spend my days doing stupid google friendly posts that have been done 100 times “How to tune a guitar” “Best plugins in 2022”,  content should stand the tests of time. 

Content Continued
I’ve been organising all my notes (3000+) from books, courses, mentors into some kind of value and idea bank. When I start daily content, I’ll have an organised system of ideas, headlines, buzz words, life lessons, stories etc, I also planned the outline for my first book.. 

Novel
Last month I dabbled in descriptive writing then this month I was inspired to write a novel, I planned some basic stuff out and seems I have an interesting idea. I’ve never read a single fiction book and I have no idea how to write fiction. To my surprise I naturally added inciting incidents, leaving open loops to be answered later, sending the protagonist on a journey of redemption all before learning about those terms. Instead of finishing it right now I’ve decided to pick up a few fiction books by top authors to ingest their style and techniques. 

Ecommerce 
Q4 sales are up drastically, for those who don’t know I run a one man wholesale business re-selling vintage clothing, very easy business model that takes up probably 10 hours a week so I can focus on music and writing etc. 

October 2022

Sleep
This month I dropped a lot of body fat and I’m now operating on much less sleep than before. 

I’ve been waking up at 1-3am and working all day, I no longer nap in the day after meals.
When I was overweight I NEEDED 7-8 hours, now I’m functioning better on 5 hours.

Writing 
Planning short form content. I revisited some of my old copywriting emails I sent back when I was 23 creating info products. 
“Confessions Of A Lucid Marketer”, “Rabid Conversion Secrets”, I’m curious to know what exactly I studied back the and what process i followed.
The style has so much shock factor, random plots and crazy words. I wrote for 74 days straight before dropping the habit. 
However I will re-package the old content and release it somewhere here. 

Studying
I’ve been plowing through courses this month, watching on 2-3x speed, everything from consulting, spirituality, mindset, music production, copywriting, direct response,  writing fiction, storytelling etc. 

Music
Not as active in the studio this month, mixed a single song all month experimenting with different technique’s. Treated myself to some halloween sample packs & I’ve been organising them all month. Updated my “Hard Dance Production Checklist” with some more advanced mixing technique’s. 

Writing Continued
A friend read some of my old work & recommended I try writing fiction so I did a short chapter one morning and edited it. Everyone really likes it to my surprise. I’ve never read any fiction apart from the alchemist, I never saw the value in it, until now.. fiction is great to learn storytelling. 
One technique i implemented was treating the world as its own character and letting it unfold slowly throughout the story. 
I’ll probably publish it online for anyone who cares. 

The Slug Continued
The Slug problem is no longer an issue, I poured KG’s of salt all over the studio, performed some witchcraft then burnt the studio to the ground. 

September 2022

Music
Mixing and mastering a debut album of hard dance music that will be released under my alias NofacedJuJu.

Art
Re-igniting a childhood passion for drawing and creating characters, my art teacher thought of me as too much of a nuisance to give me the time of day in art class so I’m picking that back up now.

Clothing
Working on a clothing line that goes hand in hand with the style of music I make, I have a ton of failed samples and a few that I’m happy with.

Writing
Considering ways I can write, edit and publish content faster on the site, I have lots of long-form content already written that just takes way too long to upload, edit and style on the website. So I’m kind of holding off on that for now.

Checklists
Developing a system that I’ve used for a long time to help me with producing dance music, a checklist that works through the composition, mixing and mastering of a track but also keeps a catalogue of every track, the style, genre, BPM, key, a rating system and notes for each track, to help people keep a visual list of all the music they’re working on & what step in the process there at.

Reading
I’m always reading a lot of different books, my kindle library is now 344 books strong. I just finished Derek Sivers – Anything you want & Alex Hormozi’s 100m offers. I’m currently reading – Breaking the habit of being yourself, The 1% rule, Manifest – 7 steps to living your best life, Happy Money, Pro Audio mastering, The great mental models, 1984 – the graphic novel.

Cameras
I’ve dug out my photography and videography camera’s to start recording some behind-the-scenes content of the things I’m working on, I haven’t given much consideration yet to any placement or setup as I don’t want my studio room getting cluttered.

The Slug
There’s a slug that somehow enters my music studio every night and leaves a trail to mock me, it’s become personal now.
