CIRCLING
WELCOME
Seems like I have forever been circling, trying to find where to land. The metaphor is apt for me.
I was trying to find the answer to how my work ... ruminations... that has birthed songs, lyrics, designs, characters, websites and stories would fit together... How my myriad of personas could move forward in a way you would understand - and I would understand?
You see me here in my WAR ROOM. I spent maybe four months in it - or was it more - time long ago lost meaning to me. I papered all the walls and was startaing to paper the ceiling. I was linking areas with coloured string making associations. On my table before me 125 of my songs filed - lawyer fashion by gravity.
It was relaxing to be in the midst of the detail written on the walls. If you zoom in on my right should er you will see a picture of my head - with different personas within. That is a true and accurate reflection of a part of my brain!
It's a story.
So here in the nickyslater.com section i will give myself permission to put my ruminations, foibles - airport circling stories to myself - some may be gated -as the trolls will have a field day with indecision of course.
They may be useful though - as a case study in a serch of renlightenment that may inspire you to know you are not half as screwed up as you think you are - compard to me.. oh yes i am you say. Excllent - you see - value in this. Anyway.. It's good to havbe your company.
MAKING CRAZY WORK
“Some of us more sensitive souls carry a dream deep inside. It never dies, for we do not let it be tested. It’s been condemned. It seems too ridiculous to share. It makes others uncomfortable and everyone knows it will not work. For us, it needs huge courage to take that LID OFF THE BOX of our lives. And that was before online derision and hate. It was also before, in my case, it becomes ‘too late.’ The Ultimate get out clause? But what if it’s not too late? What if now is the time? Here I explore a different, somewhat bonkers, yet powerful fun construct to overcome these obstacles. My goal? To create THE BIG SHOW to entertain you, to stop avoiding and inspire us all to be the amazing folk we feel called to be. I call it MAKING CRAZY WORK.” - THE AUTHOR

WRITING TO MYSELF 2024
STEP
LID OFF THE BOX is so named because it symbolises my battle to take the LID OFF THE BOX of my life; and keep it off. I love to encourage, I am, I’m told very good at it. I’ve done it for individuals and corporates. I love Show Business and I step into re-invention here into music and comedy. I am learning to be artist. It’s not comfortable. This journey colours my work in Breakthrough enablement. I’ve worked on big projects and been famous three times. The last one I will write about here. It was awful! Long story short, I’m hopeful and I’ve had some big battles. It’s time to win back lost years… And I see the possibility for building a TRYB, our TRY B Community, our very special DREAMTRYB here.
GIVE
You can’t give without getting so I am committed to giving: MUSIC, STORIES, BREAKTHROUGH ENABLEMENT and LIVE SHOWS… Through NICKSTIR and his friends you will meet I will STIR your soul. Through the DREAMTRYB story I will have you enthralled and laughing. Through my B A VIP I will see you a lanyard pronouncing you the VIP (Very Important Person) that you are.
I have always had this HUGE vision. It’s often overwhelming and it’s eaten years as I have not had the courage or competence to deliver on it. And I’ve got stuck in the tech. Tech has eaten - I would say - at least fifteen years of my life and a HUGE amount of money and lost opportunity. Yet, it colours my every move now and I’ve learnt some stuff.
So - bottom line it’s about pursuing the antidote to fear, and sharing what I have found in that lifetime of research and battling… And it’s about achieving - what the World - and my sane mind would say is impossible. But THERE’S ALWAYS A WAY.
GET
So my idea is to create DREAMTRYB as a Membership Opportunity. So I can put food on the table and build this venture. That’s the next step here… I’m grappling with the structure. This Quarter I will have it nailed.
