A guy is sitting a few tables over from me wearing 1000 jackets. His phone is plugged into an outlet next to his seat. I bet he is a drug dealer. Drug dealers fascinate me. I’d argue they are the best entrepreneurs in the world.
I am in a Starbucks. It’s a coffee place.
I love to be in coffee shops. I like to sit in them and watch people while I write down new ideas. Hell, I just spent an hour trying to figure out how to set goals for this year. I failed. Eh.
This is the coolest coffee shop I have ever been to in my life: Truth Coffee
Now he is sleeping. A hoodie is covering his head and his red sweatpants are sliding off. He doesn’t have a backpack so maybe he’s not a drug dealer. Maybe he is on drugs.
Maybe I should finally open a coffee shop. If I do, it will have soft seating, plants for sale, and bananas. Oh, and books. Too much? Nah. Not a ton of books but books I like and journals. I am a journal FREAK.
Yesterday I sipped an ice coffee in an old faux leather office chair while listening to three people chat about their lives at Black Crow Coffee in St. Petersburg, Florida. It is also one of the best coffee joints I have ever been to. Great vibe.
Or maybe I should just open a plant store. My girlfriend wants to open a plant store that sells Jamaican coffee with a surf vibe. She also wants to become a Reiki Master and teach people how to hug. She also wants me to communicate better. Ah, goals.
The first time I met her she gave me a hug that stopped me in my tracks. I remember thinking, damn, that was a great hug. I am not much of a hugger. You know it takes 21 seconds for oxytocin to be released when hugging someone? That is a long ass hug. Ew.
I ate two pancakes at Cracker Barrel yesterday. I haven’t had pancakes in years. They were amazing. I don’t put syrup on my pancakes, just butter.
What are you going to create this year? Please don’t tell me a coffee shop that sells plants and bananas.
Anyway, be weird this year. Try new things. Drink coffee and eat pancakes. Start a business that makes no sense just to see what happens. Write a book. Join my traveling mastermind. Do a 10-day silent meditation in a cave in northern Thailand. Launch your personal brand and get stickers made immediately. Sell your company and start something new. Try drugs for the first time. Take a hot bath.
My God, I love taking hot baths.
Enjoy your life, folks. Might as well!

Oh, and buy some of my new hot sauce here. If you do, you will get a handwritten note from me with your bottle.
