So you got a Business Idea…

I’m not a fan of people who sit around and slack. Moreso, I dislike people who talk about business this, idea that, but don’t actually take action on anything. Most of ALL, I can’t STAND people who make a big deal about concealing their ideas for fear of someone stealing their grand, amazing, [...]

Focusing on what You do Best

Focusing on what You do Best

I realized recently that the following tried and true quote is a principle to live by. :
“Focus on what you do best.”

Case in point. Megan Fox knows what she does best…
It simply leads to increased productivity, plus you can have others take care of the stuff you aren’t good at (which may in fact [...]

Smarts, Courage, and Passion Equals Recipe for Ongoing Success, Cool Silly on its way

Taking action is so awesome.

Our mini-album release performance in February 2010.
In my last two posts, I wrote about taking the driver’s seat and grasping control of my career and artistic direction. It is has been an amazing ride in the recent four to six months for my bandmates and me (and it’s just starting [...]

One of my favorite TV shows is ‘The Big Bang Theory’.  The show is currently in season three and is getting more and more popular with each season.  I think of it as the modern day Star Trek.  The show airs on CBS weekly and basically revolves around the lives of four geek buddies, from [...]

How Do People Perceive You?

How Do People Perceive You?

Know thyself.  A motto I live by… i.e. know how you come across to others!

I recently met a person who either

doesn’t know how he appears to others or
is aware of his behavior and simply wants to be obnoxious and annoying.

Assume = Ass out of U and Me

Assume = Ass out of U and Me

I.E. ASS + U + ME = ASSUME
Assuming things is not good. Vocalizing the things you assume is even worse. I think it demonstrates a lack of maturity and also disrespect towards the victim. Unfortunately, I think that it is simply human instinct to assume things. And half the time, the things we assume turn [...]

I’ve met a lot of new friends in the last week or two. Many who create music / dance / sing / etc. Through these experiences, I’ve been reminded of a very cliche but damn true statement:
There’s always someone out there who is better than you.

Tony’s Golden Rule of Purchasing

Tony’s Golden Rule of Purchasing

Recently, I bought a very slick and innovative watch, the Lexon e8. Here it is:

I’m not gonna lie. It was not cheap. I could almost buy an iPod for the price. But a worthy investment in my opinion. It’s a new way to read time and the equalizer-like style is [...]

Theory on Life as a Game of Blackjack

Theory on Life as a Game of Blackjack

Life is basically a game of Blackjack.

Oh no, here comes another Tony-has-gone-loco statement. But hear me out. These two days have been phenomenal for me (and potentially life-changing in ways). I just sat here for about ten minutes trying to think of the perfect analogy that can describe my present feelings. And the [...]

Something Everyone Agrees With…

Something Everyone Agrees With…

Everyone (literally) likes a good listener.

It’s rare to come across something everyone agrees with… I’m damn sure this statement is true, no? (Goes hand-in-hand with my previous post about how most people care most about themselves)
This statement is key to

making new friends,
upping your reputation,
landing a date,
being a good friend, etc… the list goes on.

Agreed?
