Lessons With A King

The word brand might seem thrown around a lot these days but it isn’t always for a negative reason. What we have to understand is that we all have tools to build the brands we want and it’s up to you to decide what your brand is and how you are going to rep it. My brand is simple: learning, helping others, and enjoying life. I’m curious to find out what yours is.

PROMPT: What is your brand?

We live in a time where it might be difficult to live the life you want on a single source of income so it’s good to have more than one. It’s up to you to decide how many streams of income you want, the amount of work you are wishing to put in but also you know what, it isn’t for everyone. So if you are all good with a single stream of income, then awesome, but if not, consider other things you can do to bring in income. One thing though, understand your net worth isn’t all that life is about.

PROMPT: What are your different streams of income?

There are things we can do at any given time. We can wake up at 3 in the morning and get it done, easy. However, there are other things that will take almost everything we have to achieve. In fact, we might have to dig deeper to achieve it. Those are the things I’m talking about there. When you believe you’ve exhausted your tank, take a moment, breathe and then push. It might shock you how much you have left if you just dig deeper.

PROMPT: When was the last time you had to dig deeper? Why?

I’m going to guess that you’ve seen a heist movie. There’s almost always a scene where the CCTV is tampered with and the security gets to watch something on the screen but that’s not what’s actually happening. Data is beautiful but data can be tampered with so do not just take things at face value. Find out as much as you can and always check your data.

PROMPT: Question data

“Check The Gate” is a filmmaking term basically meaning check that the film gate doesn’t have any obstruction because we love this take and want to make sure there wasn’t any shit on the lens when we shot that. However, these days film is rarely used so even though the term is still used, it means to make sure the data is on the card. If you shoot and there was some mess on the card, that is not a very good thing. Nope! We should check our files from time to time and good practice, back things up.

PROMPT: How often do you check the files on your hard drives?
