What you know about a self employed maniac..? What would you like to know about him?

Reading my blog from the start is a great way to get a handle on what I am, where I've come from and how far I've left to complete my quest for world domination.. erm, Disregard that last part. Adopting a new wake up routine which includes checking my emails, the market, my STEEM.GLOBAL wallet and a few other things.. of which includes a healthy dose of caffeine and some toast! Really digging the "salsa corned beef" buns I recently concocted too:

Might not look like much, but it's a hell of an improvement from ~8 months ago when I used to have to worry about being able to buy groceries, pay my rent and live comfortably. Ultimately the plan is to get my projects completed, running and profitable so I can move onwards to make time to code more sweet applications for STEEM.

These early wake up days with little to no distractions really help for sure.

Just checked STEEM.GLOBAL.. It appears the wallet managed to be stable and worked throughout the night which is a great change from it's crashy bits that were going on previously this week. Todays focus is getting @tippy working better.

What is the purpose of working hard? Some would say fufillment of potential.. But for me it's all about living better than I have been in the past.. Which feels damn good! Especially when you get new shoes! Been well over a year since I replaced my shoes. Have these now:

For those of you that have never worn Converse hi-tops you are missing out.. While sorely lacking arch support these shoes are damn comfy flat footed kick around sneakers.

Alright, finished my sandwich and caffeinated morning ritual. Time to get to work.

Nice Post

Have a nice day

Mornin' !

Thanks man. Starting with good energy to carry it on throughout the day.

Good morning, Kyle. I have followed you recently and have been enjoying your blog. Congrats on the improvements in your life. I miss my Converse hi-tops. They were comfy. I wore the hell out of them. I voted for you recently for Witness as well. Keep up the great work!

Thanks for the meaningful reply and share of your own hi-top wearing. :)

Appreciate the witness vote. My goal is rank #1 which I will eventually get.

Have a good day & night jdawg!

With your great attitude and dedication, I have no doubt you will get to #1. You have a great day too! I am really looking forward to the much needed 3- day holiday weekend.

Dude I love it! Dig the shirt too. I actually make video games...or try to anyway.
Here's the best part about being self employed... Working 100hrs to not work 40
Steem on brother!

I saw the shirt and impulse bought it.. At $9.99 CAD I couldn't say no. Picked up a few other gaming related shirts too as they were the same price and video games are one of my favourite leisure activities.

I saw you dabbled with the game building when I checked out your blog yesterday. Right on man. World needs more engineer type dreamers capable of making entertainment and service for others. :)

I got into game development because of my teenage son.
He's a genius programmer.. Started teaching himself when he was 9, now at 15 he programs in around 17 languages.
Everything I know about making games, he taught me.
I've since fallen in love with making games as well as working with my son. In two years we've already put up two games on Steam.

THAT is impressive.

When I was a younger lad I had dreams of game design and development but got sidetracked by girls and pot... Never ended up completing a game sadly. Would be an interesting hobby to take up when I get the time. It's incredible some of the stuff being made these days.

I never gave up girls and pot.
You wanna make awesome games you need to live an awesome life

Good Friday Morning @klye

Keep STEEM N ON brother!
Frank

Ooh it is friday I guess eh?

Well then.. Stay tuned for the 5 o'clock gin and juice post in that case!

Take er easy Frank!

Lol, yeah I normally pay attention to the calendars, habit of mine...

But I like your style "Stay tuned for the 5 o'clock gin and juice post in that case!".

Can take the boy out of the hood but not the hood out of the boy. :P

Sooooooooooooooo TRUE!

I knew you would like DAT! :p

Own the exact pair of shoes myself, can't live without 'em. Love your simplistic approach to life.

At one point I had a blue pair and also a brown plaid pair that were just a bit ridiculous.

Simply a classic look in my opinion. You are a man of great taste. :D

OMG! I've the blue pair as well. We've the same taste I think, lol. I've voted for you to be witness by the way.

"you are a man of great taste"

Clearly cut from the same loaf we are. Thanks man. :)

Cheers buddy! Following you so as to not miss any of your posts. Take care.

Now he drives a sports moose.

Hey man I'm glad to hear everything is going better for you.

Sadly I couldn't afford the turbo charged version with the overhead syrup injectors. D:

good morning to you too!

Starts to get erect at the thought of you working on TIPPY! :P

I'm rooting for your works. Have a pleasant day ahead, friend. Nice shoes too :) I used to wear those awhile back but proceeding situations forced me to choose a bouncy pair such as rubber shoes.

The converse hi-tops are certainly lacking in the ankle and arch support some people need to be able to walk comfortably for sure. Eventually will get myself some proper running shoes but will hold off for now.

Glad to see you have priorities straight ! Keep up the great work my fellow Canadian ! 👍👍👍

It was time... lol

Man, I wish I could land a gig like that (or ANY!)....til' then it's just Rock On / STEEM On !! Thanks for the cool tale of your success!

Make your own gig man! That is the essence of the self employed freelancer mercenary types.

Everyone is good at something, just gotta figure out what you love while making a living doing it. :)


Amen! Thank you brother @klye - Pee.S. A few years ago I went on Converse.com and had a custom pair of those high tops made. Did you know they do that? I will have to follow up with a photo for you - they are red / black / grey Batman symbol w/Harley Quinn on the side (this was before the character achieved any widespread following). It was pretty reasonable too, I think 60 bones or so. Just an aside, but thank you for taking the time to post brother! Rock On / STEEM On!

A wild Klye appears!

Not sure if tail or massive wang. 0_0

He is flexing. Might be massive wang. lol

Cool man!!

Whats up?

I love it that steem helps simple, modest people to live better. Makes me see some hope for the future of society.

Such a nice post! Thank you for sharing @klye!
