0:20
successfully completed November has come

0:27
full-fledged Christmas month is right
0:30
here nipping at our nose Jack Frost is
0:34
nipping at our nose Southern California
0:37
Jack Frost probably does not rear his
0:40
ugly head unless you're maybe up in the
0:41
mountains of Big Bear but it is a little
0:44
chilly I'm wearing the hoodie today and
0:46
I'm wearing my Jason VOR shirt even
0:48
though it's not Friday it is Tuesday I
0:50
guess it's always a good day you can
0:52
always have that Friday mentality and
0:55
this Vlog is going to be about a
0:58
mentality this Vlog is going to about
1:00
something that I have on my mind
1:03
today sometimes I will film abandoned
1:05
places sometimes I will film filming
1:07
locations sometimes I will go to theme
1:09
parks sometimes I will go to
1:12
conventions sometimes I will show you
1:14
weird wacky roadside attractions and
1:16
then other times I will give
1:18
you guess basically what's in my mind I
1:21
will put what's in my mind try to
1:24
formulate competent sentences which is
1:27
very difficult for me to do sometimes
1:29
and actually tell tell you what is on my
1:30
mind and today is going to be one of
1:32
those types of Vlogs what would I like
1:34
to talk to you about today I would
1:36
actually like to address a subject or
1:40
call this Vlog doing what you want to do
1:45
it is impertinent it is
1:48
earnest I
1:50
earnestly want to express to you that
1:54
you should do what you want to do now I
1:57
know that makes a lot of sense to every
2:00
one when you think oh Adam that makes
2:02
perfect sense I should just do what I
2:03
want to do I want to play video games I
2:05
want to watch TV I want to go to the
2:08
park and swing on a swing set all of
2:10
those are things that you want to do I
2:11
want to go to Taco Bell and get some
2:13
tacos those things are all fine and
2:15
dandy but I am talking about what you
2:17
really want to do what is in your heart
2:21
the passion that drives you the
2:24
ideas that are in your head that is what
2:28
I am referring to
2:30
and I am going to encourage you today to
2:33
go out and do what you want to do not in
2:37
a normal hour by hour basis little
2:41
things that make up your day but things
2:45
that make up who you are ideas that you
2:48
have that you want to actually put out
2:51
into the world and actually formulate
2:53
and go into fruition and put out in the
2:56
universe things that you want other
2:58
people to see
3:00
and why do I have these thoughts in my
3:02
brain today well I was actually digging
3:04
through some old
3:06
photos and they did not really seem like
3:09
they were old photos as I was looking
3:10
through them old friends me a much
3:13
younger me and I started to realize
3:16
these are before digital cameras these
3:17
were with the regular photos you would
3:19
take to the 1hour photo developing areas
3:23
and I have them in a box at home and I
3:25
have not looked through them in a long
3:27
time a few of them I actually posted
3:29
over on Instagram Adam the woo on
3:31
Instagram and I started to think those
3:35
pictures of me I was 21 years old I am
3:39
now 41 those pictures were
3:42
20 years ago and they feel almost like
3:46
yesterday A lot of people use that
3:48
expression oh that just feels like
3:50
yesterday well it really does because
3:53
the mind the way the mind works is very
3:56
interesting and how time can move on at
3:59
a very rapid Pace but in your mind it
4:02
just feels like a very short time and
4:05
this got me thinking about time about
4:09
accomplishing things about doing things
4:13
about getting off the couch and going
4:15
out and doing
4:16
it stop talking about it stop talking
4:19
about it and do it which I've actually
4:22
expressed in the past excuse
4:24
me I'm not getting choked up I'm
4:26
actually just choking on a little bit of
4:28
breakfast that I just had had and trying
4:30
to wash it down with this this
4:34
soda so that's basically what is on my
4:37
mind doing what you want to do like I
4:41
was talking about with the photos it's
4:43
been 20 years half of my life ago those
4:47
photos and I felt like I had already
4:50
done so much but looking back on it in
4:53
20 years since those photos I have done
4:56
so much more than I did back when those
5:00
photos were
5:01
taken and it really makes me think what
5:05
else will I accomplish in the next 20
5:07
years and 20 years I'll be 60 years old
5:09
I be I will be hitting the the Twilight
5:12
of my existence I will definitely be a
5:15
lot older in 20 years I will be 60 years
5:17
old wandering will I still be vlogging
5:20
will I still be putting out video
5:21
adventures what other format will there
5:25
be to be expressing my creativity
5:30
and I'm going to try to put all this
5:31
together I know it's not really making a
5:32
lot of sense but I get a little
5:35
emotional when I look at those old
5:36
photos the old photos of me a younger me
5:40
and then I think to myself what if I had
5:44
not or what would have happened if I
5:47
would have not gone after what my
5:50
passion was what I wanted to do those
5:54
things that I was doing 20 years ago
5:56
would I still be doing them would I
5:58
still be working at those same places
6:01
that I was unhappy working at 20 years
6:04
ago would I have those same people in my
6:08
life all of that most likely changed for
6:12
the
6:13
better because of the decisions that I
6:16
have made in my life not saying that the
6:20
people in my life were not great at that
6:22
time but as you get older you start to
6:24
realize who your real friends are who
6:26
your true friends are some of the people
6:29
from back in the day are still my
6:31
friends which is actually super cool to
6:33
have acquaintances and actually not even
6:36
acquaintances more than that actual true
6:39
friends from that long ago but it's
6:42
interesting how even over time you take
6:45
your friendships and you're a little bit
6:47
more picky about the decisions you make
6:50
as you get older and I'm actually very
6:52
happy and content and thankful that I
6:54
have made the decisions that I have made
6:56
in my life and I'm at where I am at
6:58
today and the whole reason for that is
7:02
because I decided that I would do I
7:04
would set out to do what I wanted to
7:08
do and that's basically what I'm
7:10
encouraging you
7:11
today do what you want to do have a goal
7:15
in mind and not just necessarily have a
7:19
thought process like I want to get from
7:20
point A to point B this quickly this is
7:23
my idea or this is my goal but have an
7:26
actual motivation have an actual idea
7:30
have a passion and if you feel a passion
7:33
inside if you have this thing in your
7:36
heart that you cannot ever stop thinking
7:40
about go out and do it and get it and
7:43
put it into the world whether it be
7:44
music whether it be artwork whether it
7:48
be making videos whatever it is it does
7:51
not matter what it is I make videos not
7:55
necessarily the whole world has to make
7:57
videos whatever it is that you are into
8:00
whatever it is that you want to do your
8:03
creative Talent do it that is what I am
8:06
saying and that's pretty much the topic
8:08
of this Vlog chime in if you understand
8:11
what I'm thinking about if you
8:13
understand what I'm trying to put out
8:14
there this is very confusing I have a
8:16
lot on my mind but I wanted to express
8:18
this little tidbit of information that
8:22
I'm actually thinking in my head today
8:24

8:26
tomorrow we will go out and visit
8:28
somewhere cool but today I just wanted
8:29
