Back with a Vengeance

9/4/2023

0 Comments

 
There's no greater narrative than a comeback story. For years, I've been distant from friends and family, all due to the tumultuous political climate that gripped our nation some years back. The division among Americans seemed insurmountable, and it lingers still in many ways. I'm here to declare that I don't care about your political beliefs. Let's just be friends again. Let's reconnect, have conversations, find common ground, and set aside the divisive nonsense. We reside in the greatest country on the planet, and whatever challenges we face, they'll eventually resolve themselves.  Truth always wins.

Remember what's important, family, friends and good people doing good things. Evil will always exist as it must to maintain balance in the cosmos. There can be no light, without dark. I won't get into my own politics, but suffice it to say I see both good and bad on  two very extreme sides and I subscribe to neither.  

Despite everything, I've returned. I'm prepared to chart a new path into my future, and I'm extending my hand to those I've distanced myself from in the past and to anyone who distanced themselves from me.

I'm employed, working for a sizable company, but it's not my ultimate calling. I'm a storyteller at heart. I have an unbridled passion for narratives, and I'm eager to share my creative visions with anyone willing to join me!

I'm resurrecting my old story, 'Subject 15,' and rejuvenating it with a fresh, captivating appeal. My aspiration is to bring this story to Netflix. Why Netflix, you might ask? Well, why not? It seems like a pretty popular platform, doesn't it?

Visit the Subject 15 website to explore what it's all about: https://www.subject15.com

So, my friends, as I enter this new chapter of my life, I'm filled with hope and optimism. I believe in the power of stories to bring people together, to transcend differences, and to inspire positive change. Together, we can accomplish anything! It's 2023, there should be flying cars, space travel and machines that deconstruct matter and remap it to create anything. A rock into a Cheeseburger? Yes please.

Thank you for your support, your friendship, and your belief in second chances. The best is yet to come, and I can't wait to share it with all of you. Here's to new beginnings and the enduring power of unity.

With warmth and optimism,

​Joe

TEN CRYPTOCURRENCY COMMANDMENTS

4/24/2021

0 Comments

 
1:  Do Your Own Research (#DYOR)

Scenario: Bob see's people saying BUY BUY BUY! on Token-X -the price is climbing- Bob doesn't know what Token-X is, but he whips out his money bags and spends all of his money getting as much as he can. 24 hours later, Token-X crashes and Bob is left with 1/100th of his  investment.  He decides to sell and take the loss.

Where did Bob go wrong? 

A: Bob didn't immediately visit the Token-X website, read the whitepapers, or explore its roadmap. This was a critical error as it left him uninformed about what Token-X is, what it does, and its potential for the future. Doing thorough research about a cryptocurrency project is essential before investing.

B: Bob invested money he couldn't afford to lose. It's crucial to invest only what you can afford to lose in the volatile world of cryptocurrencies. Using money meant for essential expenses like rent or food is risky and can lead to financial distress.

C: Bob sold his investment when he should have held it. Emotional decisions, like panic-selling during a market downturn, can result in significant losses. Bob's decision to sell without a proper understanding of Token-X's fundamentals and potential for recovery was a mistake.

Always remember the importance of conducting thorough research, not only on a specific cryptocurrency but also on the broader cryptocurrency ecosystem and its fundamentals, such as decentralized finance (DeFi).

2: Never invest what you can't afford to lose.

It's crucial to emphasize that cryptocurrency investments carry risks, and the market can be highly volatile. Investing money you need for essential expenses like rent or food is not a sound practice. Financial decisions should always prioritize your basic needs and financial stability over speculative investments.

3: Keep emotion out of your trading.

Investors should avoid becoming emotionally attached to a particular cryptocurrency. The market is continually evolving, and new technologies and projects emerge regularly. While some cryptocurrencies gain popularity, it's essential to base investment decisions on a rational assessment of a project's fundamentals, technology, and potential rather than emotional attachment.

4: Understand Market Cap.

Market Capitalization (Market Cap) is a critical metric for evaluating cryptocurrencies. It is calculated as the value of the coin multiplied by its circulating supply. Understanding market cap helps investors assess the relative size and potential of a cryptocurrency within the market. Coins with limited supply and strong use cases often have a higher market cap, reflecting their value and scarcity.

5: Fear Of Missing Out (#FOMO)

Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) can lead to impulsive investment decisions without proper research. To avoid FOMO, it's essential to prioritize research, understand the fundamentals of a cryptocurrency, and make informed decisions based on knowledge rather than hype.

6: Don't trade chaotically.

Having a clear trading strategy and plan is crucial for success in the cryptocurrency market. Investors should conduct thorough research, understand the technology behind the coins they invest in, and have a strategy in place. Reckless trading can lead to losses and missed opportunities.

7: You can avoid losses by not selling during the dips.

Selling during market downturns can lead to losses, especially when trading fees are involved. Investors should consider their long-term goals, research the fundamentals of their investments, and make informed decisions rather than reacting impulsively to market fluctuations.

8: Keep your Seed Phrases well protected.

Protecting your cryptocurrency assets is essential. Storing seed phrases securely is crucial to maintaining control of your investments. Consider using hardware wallets and secure storage methods to safeguard your assets and ensure your loved ones have access in case of unforeseen circumstances.

9: Volatility will occur.

Cryptocurrency markets are known for their volatility, with prices experiencing significant fluctuations. It's essential to stay informed, remain patient during market swings, and base investment decisions on long-term trends and fundamentals rather than short-term price movements.

10: Have Fun.

Cryptocurrency is a transformative and exciting financial technology. While it offers opportunities for investment and financial growth, it's crucial to approach it with a sense of curiosity and enthusiasm. Enjoy the journey, continue learning, and make well-informed decisions in this evolving ecosystem.

TORUM: A Social Media Site for Cryptocurrency Enthusiasts.

12/5/2020

If you're into cryptocurrency or are looking for ways to learn about it then I have the site for you. It's called Torum, and it's kind of like Twitter, only cooler because everyone on there is talking about the currency of the future. For anyone who doesn't know what cryptocurrency is, or maybe doesn't fully understand it, Torum is the place to be.  You create an account and then you can ask any question you want and people will answer you. Pretty amazing. 
​
The site was created by some pretty badass dudes in Malaysia who believe that people should have a space to discuss cryptocurrency, kind of like a digital Wall Street, but one that never sleeps. The people on Torum are exceptionally cool and really nice. If you're looking for engagement, you'll have no troubles on Torum.

Here's the best part though... Torum has it's own cryptocurrency, called XTM, and it's worth real money, in the real world, (yes really) and the best part is, you can earn it simply by being on Torum and talking to people. I kid you not. Torum also has daily and weekly missions you can do and if you do them enough, you'll see your XTM build pretty quickly. 

As a new Torum member myself, I've earned over 120 XTM in just a hours of being there and as Torum gets more popular, XTM gets more valuable. Think about it. Before anyone knew about Bitcoin it was only a few dollars, but look now and you'll see that only one is worth $19,000, and yes, that's real money.

If you'd like to join Torum use my link below and you'll get a free 75 XTM. Come find me @JoeTremblay and I'll follow you back.

How to Improve Your Life in 8 Steps

10/18/2020

The game of life is as great as you make it. Everything that happens to you or does not happen for you is completely in your own control. You can live a life being the effect of other people’s creations or you can be the creator that others become interested in. The reason movie stars, and movie producers are paid so much money is because they created something, and we paid our money and time for their creation. Be the creator. One of the best ways to do that is to communicate and there are varying degrees of effectiveness to communicating outlined below.

The power and effectiveness of the various methods of contact:
  • Most Effective: Physical Face to Face
  • Highly Effective: Video Call
  • Effective: Phone Call
  • Moderately Effective: Text
  • Semi-Effective: Personal E-mail

How you choose to communicate is up to you, but once you start, you are on your way to an amazing number of changes that you will not even believe.

There are 8 vital steps to start making magic happen listed below. Follow them to a T and do not waiver once you start. Not all your communications will be received, acknowledged or returned, but don’t let that slow you down.

1: Create goals.

This seems too simple, but it is the most important step to follow. A life without purpose is not a life at all. There must be something you are aiming for in life. Something big, way up there in the future. Some people will say their number one goal is to be rich. That is a fine goal. Though, one cannot simply wish to be rich without at least a dozen other goals to precede it. One needs to create a path of goals that lead to being rich in order for it to be so. Then, when that goal is met, new goals must be created, or unhappiness shall surely follow. So, make a few ultimate goals and then create all the goals that lead to the ultimate goals. Use the remaining steps below to help you get there.

2: Contact everyone you know at least once per month.

See what people are up to. How are they? What’s new in their life? Do not look to Facebook for this information, but instead, go to their house, call them, or send them a text or email. (See communication effectiveness chart above). If people present you with a problem that they are facing then say the following, “How can I help?” and then proceed accordingly.

3: Create at least one post each day on all your social media platforms.

When you do not post on social media, people forget about you. It is the nature of the world we live in. Want proof? Turn off your birthday notifications and see how many friends wish you a Happy Birthday… you will not find many that do. You must communicate that you are alive. When you make a post, it can be about anything, it does not matter. Make sure you acknowledge and reply to all comments. If someone is negative or trolling, go ahead block them because you do not need them in your life.

4: Do one good deed per day.

Find someone to help and help them. It could be a homeless person who needs a few bucks. It could be picking up trash on your street or feeding a stray cat. Don’t ask for anything in return and don’t tell anyone that you’ve done it. Keep it to yourself, this is very important. Commit to just ONE good deed per day and don’t go to sleep until it’s done.

5: Create something and share it.

This could be anything from a drawing, a painting, a song, a coffee table or a short story. The sky is the limit. Just create something and share that you created it. If you really like what you did, keep doing it! If you do not have an artistic bone in your body (highly unlikely) then do your best anyway. Creating is living and it will keep your soul happy.

6: Accept and participate in every communication and invitation.

Whether it’s a telemarketing call or a friend asking you to go bowling. Do it. Stay away from illegal activities or Nigerian Scammers but make everything else a go. If you get a call from a telemarketer who wants to sell you a vacation package, hear them out! You never know, it might be a great deal and you’ll have made their day better no matter the outcome. The key to this step is to be interested. Just be interested.

7: Eat and Sleep better.

Are you eating tons of junk food or fast food? Stop. Are you staying up too late and getting up early? Stop. Eat healthy and get the number of hours of sleep that your body requires each night. The body is a machine and it needs to be taken care of. The healthier your body is, the healthier your mind is, and a healthy mind can communicate and create a very bright future indeed.

8: Exercise.

You lose what you do not use. Sitting all day is worse than smoking. Every cell in your body has a unique job and what they hate most is being unemployed. Out of work cells get angry and things start breaking down. If you want your body to be happy and your mind to be sharp, exercise daily and make sure that every part of your body gets to participate. Walking is great but jogging or running is better. Not only could you possibly lose weight, but you will also strengthen your vascular system and heart. The key to longevity is using energy. Energy begets energy.

​The great secret to happiness is to be a part of life. You have to live, to live. If you start communicating and getting involved with people, you’ll start to open up new communication lines and areas of activity that were hitherto unknown. Follow all the above 8 steps and your life will change for the better before you know it.

My Life in the Year Ending 2017

12/9/2017

0 Comments

 
It's been a long and tough year.
Here's what happened:
  • I was blessed to find out I have another daughter and it's beyond frustrating that I'll probably never be able to see her. Priya, if you're reading this, it's not your fault. I am your father and I love you and I hope one day we can have a relationship.
  • I've had 4 jobs this year, but have finally settled on ITD Solutions, a sort of self-employed line of work in the Telecommunications field. 
  • I've written all but 100 words in all of my novels because of the struggles of getting by. Although, I'll tell you this, when life bombards you with difficulty, the right thing to do is to PRODUCE and COMMUNICATE.
  • I've completed 3 new songs with my band-mate Charlie, but we haven't released them yet. Coming soon. Check the   Music Tab for updates.
  • I've reworked and ironed out my script for my short film called, One More Day: A Suicide Prevention Film. You can find out about it in the Short Film Tab.
  • My wife and daughter have been well, but  are weary from the roller-coaster existence created by our problems.
  • Christmas is coming!

That's really the basic outline for the year, but you get it. 2018 will hopefully be a much better year.

All I Do is Film and Write

Greetings folks,

I want to update you on what's been going on in my life since the last time I've written.

1:  I'm fully embarked on  the creation of a short film which is very dear to me. It's called 'One More Day' A Suicide Prevention film. It's roughly 45 minutes long and centers around a character named Will who is on the verge of suicide right up until a flashing commercial for the suicide hotline tempts him to call and reach our for help. It's an amazing story of overpowering depression via action and faith and the ending will blow you away.

If you'd like to contribute to the making of this film please click the below link.
One More Day: A Suicide Prevention Film

2: My music project, Triggerfist is about to come out with 3 new songs. Right now we're in the process of mixing them down and story-boarding the videos.  

3: I'm in the video production business, in case you haven't heard and I like to make really unique videos for  personal use and business use.  My most  recent video was for Chris Philbrook and his new Patreon page.  If you'd like to check it out, go over to his page on Patreon at the following link:  Chris Philbrook Patreon Page

4: Subject 15: Newest chapter is about to pop out. Get ready.  Subject 15
