Part one: Why do I do or want to do what I do?
Hook: “Wisdom is not the product of schooling

Reality is
What You Pay
Attention To

(Part 2) Root: Music is one of my passions I have been playing piano since I was a child and always wanted to gain the skills and knowledge to compose melodies and
understand the complexity of sound.

Practice
Practice!!!

On Sundays I would play piano at my church as well as practice the songs that were on my electronic keyboard.Soon I started to have a better ear for sound. I would
practice for hours because the sounds to me were hypnotizing.

What I feel differs me from other students and graduates is being a hard worker that genuinely wants to understand and develop his craft. An advantage I have is
having the patience to do what is needed even if it doesn’t help at that particular moment.

Look Deep
Within

I have learned that in order to fully understand and to gain insight patience is vital; I feel If I were to be a present hedonistic person all the time I would lose sight
of the culmination of my goals, and in turn lose sight of something that could potentially be greater.

Another subject that I value personally is psychology; the human brain and how music affects are neurology. I feel to actually gain a real concept of whom you
really are; you need to study what you really are. What I have noticed about humans is that most of the time they are ignorant of themselves, relying on Tv to tell
them answers of who and what they are. To truly gain proper insight I feel that one should study the brain,body and evolution it could open the eyes of the
populace and answer so many questions that religion or tv doesn't know.

Learning
Shouldn't
Equal
Debt

One change that I would like to make in this world is to have a program that makes it affordable for people to go to college. I feel that learning is invaluable and college
is a great resource,however its built to put people in debt.Children and adults should have the privilege of going to school for their passions without feeling like its debt
could be a burden in the future;I don't regard this as changing the education system,however through my program school could potentially be easier to finically manage

I Value The
Understanding
Sound

2.0/">cc</a>
One of my goals is to impact people who value music,sound and knowledge like me.I feel that in doing so I will gain more understanding of self, knowledge and be able
to share what I know as well as past pervious limitations that I had.

Motivation
To Be And
Do More

2.0/">cc</a>
The goal of being more then what I was the day before motivates me to continue learning and absorbing the positive and negative. I feel that success is not accepting
that you are the best, its being humble and adapting to a world that changes everyday, and continually get the results you are looking for.

What My
Music Says
About Me

(Part 3)Brand Mantra: To Gain concept of what music means to me and evolve from that.

The Quest
For
Knowledge
<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/32135758@N02/5325454434/">jinterwas</a> via <a href="http://compfight.com">Compfight</a> <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/">cc</a>
(Part 4)Skills:One of the ways that I develop my skills is by immersing myself in books about what I am trying to do as a musician. It has helped me correct mistakes that I
have made as well as think about music concepts differently. Some of the skills I have in music is as follows.

The Steps to
being a better
musician
<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/89242035@N00/4293333117/">ramyo</a> via <a href="http://compfight.com">Compfight</a> <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/2.0/">cc</a>
I am knowledgeable of music theory (including, song structure, arranging, transposing ,knowledge of how to play an instrument (piano, keyboard),knowledge of how
to play in different genres (Blues, classical), knowledge of how to read and write notation,and knowledge of how to work in Pro Tools and Logic Pro x just to name a few.

Self
Growth
<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/52193570@N04/6808349384/">Keoni Cabral</a> via <a href="http://compfight.com">Compfight</a> <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/">cc</a>
A strategy I have for self growth is everyday continue to practice a couple of hours at my craft so it and I can develop. Another strategy that I have for self-growth
is to take extra classes outside of Full Sail to gain more insight in the courses that I am having trouble with. Thinking positively is another strategy I have,
what we say to ourselves matter, being positive helps me endure mistakes and let downs.

What Success
Means to Me
<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/13657368@N00/2035597695/">seeveeaar</a> via <a href="http://compfight.com">Compfight</a> <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/2.0/">cc</

I have learned that you can’t do what’s easy and expect to succeed. I feel that suffering to some extent can bring change in an individual. Having a good work
ethic is something that is developed over time through trial and error. One of the ways my work ethic developed is having everything taken away from me because
of my sloppiness. The ability to continually do what needs to be done without getting any type of reward any time soon to me is developed from a desire. Another
way my work ethic developed is by choosing the jobs that make me happy. If you are unhappy with your job then your work performance could suffer, and you
could begin to get a negative work reputation.

My competitive advantage is that I know how it feels like to feel stuck and not follow what you feel you are intended to do. It makes me value being able to work
on my passions more because I was miserable without it Parting,drinking,making money is nice however its unfulfilling . Another competitive advantage I have is
that I am passionate about learning and discovering new ways to do things that could be better then the original way. I feel to be unique and to be able to embrace
your uniqueness is a competitive advantage that I have developed as well.

My Truth
<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/16230215@N08/4436765340/">h.koppdelaney</a> via <a href="http://compfight.com">Compfight</a> <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/

My mom and sister dying is the biggest scars that I have and is one of the main reasons why I push myself so hard to become the man I know I can be. My mom
died when I was eleven of colon cancer, and my sister died when I was 23 of cystic fibrosis. My sister raised me after my mom passed and she instilled in me
lessons that have helped me overcome many obstacles. One mistake that I have learned from is not to let other people detour you from what you believe to be
right. I have learned that everybody will not respect what I consider to be my truth but that doesn’t make it any less of a truth.

Professional
Life
<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/56666726@N04/5798376635/">Phillip Wong - http://phw.co.nz</a> via <a href="http://compfight.com">Compfight</a> <a href="https://creativecommons.org/

(Part 5)Professional life/Work experience: One example I have of a past position is when I was chosen to manage a department within the store. I was in charge of
ordering and, receiving the inventory, as well as negotiating sales and composing a structure in which to build from. It was the first time I held that kind of a title before
and it made me feel that I had a since of responsibility.

Inner Value
<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/51352360@N00/491448581/">Myxi</a> via <a href="http://compfight.com">Compfight</a> <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/2.0/">cc</a>
Another past position I held was a customer service agent at Hemp Fest. I was in charge of helping the vendors set up, acting as security by checking patient’s 215 Ids,
and giving people information about cannabis and how it effects your brain. That position I didn’t get paid for, however it was still just as important. I felt that I actually
contributed to something that was greater then myself, which has inner value.

a>
My work experience is primarily in different types fast pace retail. It’s the only jobs that I have held since I was sixteen. Performing excellent customer service,
stocking, receiving, checking, managing a department etc has taught me responsibility, which is important in every professional environment. Hard work is
essential to finding out what you can endure. It exposes the real you and allows people to see you focused and determined.

Follow Your
Passions

2.0/">cc</a>
Another valuable lesson working jobs like Noah’s Bagels, Blockbuster etc has taught me is to never work just for the money. Even though money is essential its
wise to work for inner value so you can at least wake up with a smile knowing you are doing your passion. A volunteer experience I have is when I worked in Hemp
Fest. I taught people the value of cannabis and how it affects the brain and body.

Finding My
Own Way
<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/9147703@N03/2330598837/">vgm8383</a> via <a href="http://compfight.com">Compfight</a> <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/2.0/">cc</a>
I feel people should work with me because I am passionate about my music as well as finding my own path and walking it. Even in high school I stood out
not accepting the teaching that was given to me. I stood up to my principle and took control over the classes that I felt was beneficial to me and she
agreed.

Sci-Fi,EDM,
Mixed Music

My ideal work market is dance music and music for movies and video games. I feel that the type of music I make could be a beneficial aspect to Sci-Fi horror visual
projects. The environment I would like to work in is intellectual stimulating one. I want to learn every day from were I am at and the people in it.. I would like to work in a
place that I can be with like-minded individuals to achieve the goal of helping and educating ourselves in sound. I would like to work with people that are better then me
at something so I can put myself to the test and become better at what I can do

Music Makes

The type of work I desire is being a producer who plays his beats all over the world. One goal I have is to be able to have my music be good enough to make
people dance. Another type of work I desire is to be able to compose music for horror movies and video games. I love scary things and I feel that I make music
that can fit that genre well.

the kind of worker I am used to being is an employee,however In the future I can see myself being an entrepreneur. I have alot of Ideas for Music, Medicine,and cooking
that I feel can be something more and help contribute to the formation of my success

(Part seven) what success means to me is the ability to inspire people as well as aspire to be something more then what you are the day before. I feel that
success is a life long process that builds and changes with every failure and triumph; being positive having patience and resolve I know will lead me to success and
beyond. I feel that I will be in a place were I know whats real to me. I feel that that means that I essentially have no limitations,and if I do have limitations I can find a
way to conquer them. I feel that I will also be seen as a professional producer as well as a piano player when I reach success.
