Love this song parody about the geekiness of today’s nerdy entrepreneurs. Funny but true. I just realized by watching this video, most of the entrepreneurs I admire are nerds! Jobs, Gates,DHH and the Google Gods FTW h4×0rs!

“Just do what you love.”

How’s the Halloween season treating you? I hope its not that bad. This is the time of the year when even financial crisis is in the air, people are still spending money. Just like any season. There are times that people are saving money and spending money. Do not think that it’s not possible to earn even on financial crisis.

Since its a holiday today. I want to give a little update on what have I been doing. For those that read this blog, my friends and also those that knows me personally and wanted to get in touch. I rarely use the cellphone now because, well, I’m not the texter-type person. I get pretty tired of reading forwarded messages and calls from unknown people. Sorry guys. If you know me, make sure to let me know who you are. Anyway…

Web Design

Still a ton of work to do. We are redesigning nimble.ie - social networking site for Ireland for their relaunch and we have a lot of sleepless nights working on the design of the site. Making promotional graphics and stuff.

I also went to graphika manila but unfortunately, the one who took some photos hasn’t given me a copy of it yet. I’ll make sure to post it even if its late. One of the best thing about graphika manila this year is that an animator from Pixar is doing the speech.

My web design business is also growing. I now have a lot of connections that can help me out. I have known a lot of very good designers and coders that are willing to share profits and projects with me. I feel so blessed.

Affiliate Marketing

Never been better. This is probably the best year so far. My income sky rocketed! Though on the bad note, I have been slacking a lot knowing that I am now earning a lot more than I can spend. But still, there are still goals to meet and will not stop till I fulfill my dreams.

So how about you?

I’m excited for my new dedicated server. They are still on the process of setting up things that I still have to wait for few more days. I was totally working like a dog all day with web design jobs and tried my best to NOT SLACK at home. This is really hard, see, when you are in the office, you can not slack because your boss will make rounds and you’re too scared to be caught. If you’re at home, no boss will gonna catch you so I always always find myself slacking, watching movies, videos and playing games.

Here are some of the things I did to lessen my slacking habits.

1. Make A To Do List - I always keep a handy dandy notebook by my side to put up my task for today. I divide them by 2. Those that are pending works and those that are needed to be done today. I always limit myself to only 5 tasks everyday so I will still have time to… slack off, take a walk or do some exercise. Since its been raining for the past couple of weeks, I just went and worked some more.
2. Cancel All Noise - I have with me a headset that can cancel noise. In the house, my siblings are all noisy and the television is a big distraction. I’ll play a soothing music or just put the headset on so I can hear silence. This keeps me focused.
3. Momentum Is King - Momentum is a powerful force. Basketball coaches knows that. So you should also. If I know I am hyped to work, and I already did all the tasks, I do some more. Momentum is great as it makes you feel like you’re on fire.
4. Keep Your Work Times - Allot time for your work. If you’ll work for 8 hours today, do it. Separate work from personal life. If 8 hrs should you work, try not to do anything for personal reasons by that time and let the whole family know about it. Put a “Shhh… Genius at work” poster on your office door so everybody would know. LOL
5. Always Keep A Bottle Of Water By Your Side - Standing up and going for a drink is a distraction. I get to past by the television to get some drink which distracts me and makes me want to sit down and watch the television. I see to it that my bottle is full so I won’t get interrupted.

This work ethics applies to any kind of work. Should it be home based business, freelance jobs or working in the office. How about you? Do you have some tips?

Since I got my goal of $1k per month in affiliate marketing, I have been slacking a lot lately. There’s an increase in this month’s earning but I am not happy. This is not the kind of income that I want and I know I could’ve done better if I tried harder. It’s time for me to get things rolling because I’m planning to move out of the house. My parents and the people around me are not the ones that could help me improve and reach my goals. I love my siblings and my parents, I love my relatives but I believe they can’t help me reach my dreams.

As for today I would like to set my goal to reach a certain amount of income (personal) enough for me to move out of my parent’s house and hopefully buy my own. Do some crazy things and experiment. Expand my business.

It’s time to get serious… Like a pornstar ready to grind.

The Dark Knigh is probably THE BEST superhero movie of the year. I can’t say how happy I am to watch this film. The actors are great, the story has depth and the action scenes were awesome. Dark Knight was sold out in over 90% of Movie theaters this weekend and broke into the record books with a $155 million weekend!

I admired Heath Ledger’s performance as the Joker. I admired his acting since the movie Cassanova and have been astounded by his acting ever since. Especially the role of clever villain. It is a tremendous lost for us that he passed away.

For those who didn’t know, Heath Ledger passed away due to overdose of sleeping pills

On the side note, I hope I could be like Batman, rich, handsome and powerful. Driving his Lamborgini in his stylish suit. Fucking. Awesome.

If you haven’t watch the film yet, I highly recommend you watch it on the big screen or buy a DVD copy. It will definitely be a classic.

There have been a lot of problems with bigskymedia and that my blog disappeared. I’m not happy with the service and will say in full detail on my up coming posts. Right now, I just want to let you all know that I’m back and will start all over again.

This blog will focus more on the local topics that we have and some web related topics (mostly web design, I am a pinoy webdesigner) after all.
