  • My grandpa was always really interested in whatever I had going on, especially when I didn’t think it was worth celebrating. We spent a lot of time golfing together when I was a kid and he taught me a lot about staying calm and looking at me today vs yesterday instead of me vs where I wish I was.

    Everybody we ran into seemed to really like being around him. We used to play with a lot of people we rolled up to on the golf course. I try my best to be someone people are happy to see; like they were for him.

    I miss him but I carry so much of him inside I feel like I can still hear what he would say. I hope I can be as important to someone as he was to me.






  • It’s okay to not ruin your hobby by monetizing it.

    I would love to make knives but I know I’ll do it once and then spend a bunch of money on better stuff and never do it again.

    My success story is drumming. I’ve been doing it 5 days a week since I bought the kit in the pandemic. People always ask me if I’m going to play in a band (I used to play guitar in a couple local go-nowhere acts). That time of my life is over for now though, I just enjoy getting incrementally better at it.

    Hope the next knife you make is really dope and you feel really good about it.
