Aiming for the Moon AND Stars - Early Jan

"So what's next?" The infamous question that gets me giddy inside to tell people about my ambitious plans..... yes ambitious. "Hey, aim for the moon and if you don't get there at least you'll land in the stars." Right?
TONS!!! I mean tons!
It's ironic.. that 2 days before I was laid off I was so driven, inspired and motivated to write and brainstorm ideas and goals I would pursue this year. Overwhelming to most, but adrenaline rush for me, I came up with 2 full page type ups of projects to embark, to launch, to close, or to initiate. I wrote all these ideas assuming I had all the time in the world, assuming I had all the resources to do it.. b/c this is how you SHOULD envision it. All those finer details will fall into place when the time and elements are aligned and are right. So anyway... I had written 2 pages of projects etc.. But to begin with on what's next..
1. I plan to pursue production free lancing. I will offer my skills and service as Director, Producer, Assistant Director, Scrip Supervisor, Art Department, Field Producer and similar leadership positions. I'm currently looking to expand my experience as a leader in production. Since I will now have more time (as opposed to how it used to be only available after 5pm and on the weekends) to pursue productions and leadership is one of my nature qualities I want to put it to great use and participate in the creation of awesome works while working with interesting like minded people. I hope that my work in this may take me to visit other cities and explore more of what I love.
2. I will pursue my own motion picture production business at full throttle speed. I've always complained about not having enough time, enough resources and I now have all the time to seize and grow this business. I have a couple of models in mind, I'm searching to collaborate with the right people to make things happen.
3. I will be opening a dine-in showplex theater in South Texas in the spring of 2010. This is a dream come true. It is an idea I had been cultivating since I was about 15 years old. Nearly ten years later I find myself still coming around to the idea and finally with the right people, the right timing, the right resources ready to evolve and manifest. We began making this a reality in the summer of 2009. We had a preview demo show in December that brought us a full house and great results. At this point we are finalizing marketing, structure, the facility, permits etc. This is something I will be working on remotely from where ever I may find myself living. Please follow the progress on our site www.illusionshowplex.com

4. There's also tons of people I've love to catch up with that we previously had way different schedules and couldn't coincide.
5. In 2010 I also hope to be serving in more leadership roles in the local film community and organizations.
6. On a personal level.. I hope to be able to sustain good health for longer periods of time, and be able to rebuild my immune system. So I will be prioritizing health initiatives.

So those are the key points in a nut shell. Some projects have already begun to unfold. Exciting collaborations coming up!
- peace-
Time is to be my best friend, not my enemy. 2010 is a year for multiple desires and ideas to manifest.
