Busy Busy Busy


The past few weeks have been pretty stressful and busy, partly caused by my own ambitions but none-the-less I've had a lot on my hands. I've started the mountain biking season with some shoots with a good friend who goes by the name of Cam Hilts. He's put together a team of talented downhill mountain bike racers for the year in order to get their names out in the industry and really just do something productive. Luckily he has so far been taking me along with them in order for me to get my name out there as well. This could be amazing if it actually works out and so far it seems like it'll be absolutely wonderful.

People have been telling me not to dive into things and commit myself to jobs that might not pull through but I have decided to ignore them because in my opinion if you don't put yourself out there and take big risks then you'll never succeed. (I know it's pretty cliche but it's the truth). So at this point I haven't really lost much only gained from most of my risks so I'm just going to keep going and maybe someday it'll bite me in the ass but I would rather take those risks and have a good time than sit around at home doing nothing or go to school for something I will never actually enjoy. My friend Giuliano has repeated many many times before taking risks the frase "You only live once" so at this point I'm taking that, putting everything on the table and doing my best to spend the rest of my life doing what I love. I'm hoping that the past few weeks will bring something good, but either way I still proved to myself over the past few years that I can have a good work ethic and complete most of my personal goals.
That tells me that I am in the perfect place that I want to be right now. Still having fun with my friends while preparing myself for the future. That is the place that I want and should be right now.

And as always here is what has come out of the past few weeks of hard work. Enjoy and let me know what you think!

  1. bill that was so emotional

    school is for pussies

    (and me i guess)

    but yeah, keep doing what you love, if it doesnt work out you can always go back to school and get a BA or something, you know? I find school basically strips you of all creativity and the urge/time to do the things you want

    so yeah, do what you want :)
