So I met a carpenter that works full time building film and set designs. He shared that he was upset with me because most sets he makes just go to the landfill. I asked him what was a woodworking design he made that he enjoyed the most, and he described the process of making these beautiful doors. But when he passed it on to the set designers, they literally took baseball bats with barbed wire and crowbars and beat the shit out of the doors, because the doors had to look more “worn” for the set. Can you imagine making things and then all of it gets sent to the trash? Literally. I feel like my psyche would be damaged.

Anyways. Not that I have to but I wanted to explain why I was away for so long. The first thing is that my sister got engaged. We all went on vacation for a month or so to celebrate, and we were on a boat so I didn’t have internet in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. After that I went to China to visit some factories, and Alibaba HQ. The next reason is that I felt, at the time, it wasn’t healthy for me to be on the app. Most people had a lot of grief about the acquisition and the state of the app. Many of the casts were about this, and however people feel, at the end of the day, the thing I care the most about is making and selling candles. That environment unfortunately wasn’t conducive to buying, and February was my lowest revenue month at Humankind in the history of the company. March, while I was on vacation and let my company run with the help of a few friends, became my best revenue month, attributed to sales exclusively outside of Farcaster. After I came back from vacation in April I had to lock in. So for the past 28 days I’ve been 1. Doing yoga every morning 2. Weightlifting and 3. Cycling. Between all that making and selling candles obviously. And everyday I try to hit a PB in one of those four areas. I have hit a PB everyday, either in work, yoga, weightlifting, or cycling, except for yesterday. I am back now because I miss my friends. Yes I’m gonna talk about candles all the time but I’m here for the vibes. Still locked in so won’t be posting as much but I’m definitely here!
