So What Have I Been Up To?

It's been pretty quiet here on my blog. Has 2020 really been that hard?


Yes.


But in a good way.


I decided to give myself a break when to comes to creating samples of work on my

YouTube channel. I enjoyed doing it but I wanted to branch out into other areas. During 2020, I knew a lot of people who were working on books. At least two people were currently working on projects. I offered to read the audiobooks for them, but I was met with very polite no's.


So in order to read an audiobook, decided to write a book on my own.


I never sat down to do a podcast like I was supposed to do about my vacation to Orlando for Wrestlemania 33. I made a lot of personal changes to get there. I like to describe it as "part self-help, part travel guide". I don't want people to think "maybe someday..." If you have a goal, why can't you start it today?


Despite not creating new videos for YouTube explicitly, I have still been creating videos. I have now entered the realm of Twitch, and I stream exclusively Mondays starting at 7:15 PM EST for a few hours. If you miss the initial stream, don't worry. You can catch replays of past streams on my YouTube channel Wednesdays at 7:45 AM. Don't worry, that's when the upload will go live. Not the actual replay of the stream.


Also, I've been teaching myself human anatomy. Currently working on making flashcards and I have some for the anatomical planes, terms of movements, and terms of locations. Right now I am making flash cards for the types of joints found in the human body. After that, I'm probably going to stop and focus on drilling myself on those terms and definitions. Why am I doing this? I am looking to get into the medical field as a personal trainer first and then a physical therapist assistant later. I like my day job now. But I'm thinking that it's time to move on, as I don't see myself growing in that company at all.


When it comes to updating this blog on a more consistently schedule, I am working on another blog in a concentrated area. I don't want to spill too many details on it just yet. But when I'm ready to announce it. I'll ring the bell for it here first.


Plus, I haven't been using social media all that much recently. I'll keep things active for now but any updates or other stuff I want to share, I'll post right here first.


And so far, that's been it. Of course all the other life stuff has been popping up, but I'm ready to get serious again with a renewed sense of focus and drive. Can't wait to finish 2020 strong!
