Mindset

Half Empty or Half Full?

Do you see the glass as one half empty or one half full?

For me?

Throughout my life, I always see it as half full and most of the time I need a bigger glass.

Let people come into your life that you are supposed to and let go of always needing to be right and as I like to tell my own children, sometimes you just have to ride the wave.

We can’t change our past, we can’t predict the future, and all we have is the ever present now.

My personal mission has always been to leave people better than I find them.

If you ever get a chance, check out the movie “Sliding Doors” with Gwyneth Paltrow.

In each situation it can turn out either way, or a variation thereof, or something in the middle.

It seems that every time I have had a miracle in my own life, it was preceded by a shift in my own mindset.

You will know when it feels right.

You will have a sense of purpose when it does.

When it doesn’t, just go “next” and walk away.

All I can do is share my insights and experience with you, and if it makes sense what I write, just do it.

If what I put down here makes you scratch your own head, just smile and say “I’ll come back to this later!”

Jim Rohn, one of my favorite motivational speakers used to say, “If You Will Change, Everything will change for you.”

Well, what if you don’t want to change?

What if you love yourself just the way you are?

Okay, I gotta get on with my day. I’ll leave those answers with you.*


*Each day I make no assumptions about anything. It is a clean slate. I’ll build on what I have done before and at the same time I don’t get obsessed with it. Onward, ~Mitch

I am Awake, I am Not Woke

If you are serious about being an artist regardless if it’s in music, film, writing, painting or any other form, you are basically going to have to go it alone.

Why did I just write that?

Answer: You can’t build your own team until you have a clear understanding of what you’re creating.

There is a life we learn with and a life we live with.

The #1 Lesson I’ve learned along the way is that envy and jealousy from others around you will kill whatever project you are working on before it gets out of the gate.

How do you handle this?

Answer: It’s always better to tell them what you’ve done, not what you are going to do.

You are going to have to live as a social recluse because my observation of most of the people in the entertainment game is that they are online all the time but at the end of the day getting really little done.

Over the past two years I’ve been a very torn man I witnessed, watched and heard so many strange things out of the media, from Family and Friends. From former business partners.

Too hip, can’t talk, gotta go. That was the old Hollywood.

The New Hollywood? The truth is there is no new Hollywood and if you are sitting in front of the latest M1 or M2 Mac or a super fast gaming laptop, you basically now in charge of your own studio. Wake up, the software is all available.

In the grand scheme of things, the past two years over Covid may have been the best two years of my life. Why? First, I didn’t have to take meetings with people that I really have no interest in. Second, I was able to discern how other people think simply by by finding out what they thought of Covid, the Covid Shot, as well as how it affected their social life.

What’s it all about Alfie? Is this real, or is this Memorex? Since Covid my life has become a messenger app. Oh yes, if you are like me and you may be, you have Skype, Telegram, Signal, WhatsApp, Viber, Snapchat, Line, Google Hangouts, Twitch, Discord, or even Rumble.

That’s your new life. It won’t go back to the way it was because we are now in a culture that is 100% Divided. You can’t tell me it’s not, I’ve just had seen too much craziness over the past two years.

As I always say there is a “Life we learn with and a life we live with.” What do I wish? I wish for you what you wish for yourself.

It’s all good, it will all work out, and who knows, maybe you’ll be a better version of yourself in the end.

Me? I knew who I was at 15 years of age. Most people? They never figure out who they are.

All of us want to know:

Who am I?

Why am I here?

If you can figure out who you are and why you are here you are 90% ahead of everyone else!
