Hmm. Well, it's changed over the years because my why initially when I started DJing,
ultimately was to be famous that was the original why full transparency as i've continued to grow as a man and in my career my goal with djing has been to educate people to inspire other djs to do more than just music and to get out there and you know like you said be a trailblazer start a business provide impact over over over notoriety really i mean the notoriety is the bonus i think after you provide the impact

But I think a lot of people get into DJing as well as a lot of other things because they're trying to get the notoriety before they make the impact. So I think that initially when I, so it's a great question. When I was 12 years old, I made my goals list. And those goals list to me at 12 years old was, you know, unimaginable.

So the goals that I set when I was 12, I had accomplished those goals by before I was 20. And things like going on tour, things like performing at a festival, things like meeting some of the famous people that I wanted to meet at that time, hosting certain events with live entertainment and artists, you know, being on the radio.

All these goals that I set for myself, I had pretty much achieved those before I was 20. And because when you're still a young man or a young person growing up in this world, you're not very familiar with how your life is going to kind of transition and go in different areas and which way you're going to kind of go.

After I graduated from college from music business, I ended up finding myself working in business and corporate. And then I found myself working as an educator at Scratch DJ Academy, teaching other DJs how to DJ for Scratch 101. Then I found myself working back at ground level again as a PA for a film director. And then I ended up becoming a music director.

So, you know, life is interesting in that way. But to make a long story short, I redid my goals. I would say in my late 20s, probably around 27, 28 ish. I redid my goals and I realized that the goals that I set for myself when I was 12 years old didn't match the goals that I wanted to see for myself long term.

So one thing I will say to anyone that's watching this podcast is sometimes we have to take inventory. and see if our goals that we set for ourselves still align with where we're trying for our next version of who we want to be.
