  • The 5 (Strange) Stages Of Consulting

    The 5 (Strange) Stages Of Consulting

    Are you a consultant or want to be one? Understanding the strange but enlightening connection between magicians and consultants can prepare you for an intriguing aspect of the consulting world. Drawing from my experience working at a magic shop, I explain how magicians are like consultants.

    Just as a magic shop sells the secret behind a trick, consultants offer their expertise and knowledge to their clients. Both benefit by accepting the truth of how things work, rather than clinging to preconceived notions.

    The consultant’s role is not only to explain the workings of a solution but also to guide clients through the journey of letting go of their own ideas and embracing the most effective strategies. This insight sheds light on why some clients may feel dissatisfied when confronted with the reality of what a consultant advises.

    Embracing this understanding can enhance communication skills, negotiation abilities, and overall consulting effectiveness. To delve deeper into this concept and explore a mind-reading demonstration that helps navigate the process, watch this mind reading how to video:

  • Should You Start An LLC?

    Should You Start An LLC?

    As a business owner, one of the most important decisions you’ll make is choosing the right legal structure for your business. One option is to start a Limited Liability Company or LLC. So, what exactly is an LLC and why should you consider starting one?

    First and foremost, an LLC offers asset protection. When you start a business, you’re essentially putting your personal assets on the line. In the event of a lawsuit, creditors can go after your personal assets such as your home, car, and bank accounts. However, with an LLC, your personal assets are separate from your business assets. This means that if your business is sued, your personal assets are protected. Your liability is limited to the assets owned by the LLC, which can protect you from personal financial ruin.

    Secondly, an LLC limits your liability. In addition to protecting your personal assets, an LLC also limits your personal liability. This means that if your business is sued, you’re only liable for the debts and obligations of the business up to the amount of your investment in the LLC. This is different from a sole proprietorship or partnership, where you’re personally liable for all business debts and obligations.

    Thirdly, an LLC protects your identity. When you start a business, you’re required to register your business with the state. This means that your personal information, such as your name and address, becomes part of the public record. However, with an LLC, you can choose to have a registered agent receive any legal documents on behalf of the LLC, keeping your personal information private. Finally, an LLC can improve your perceived value. When you start a business, you want to appear professional and established.

    Having an LLC after your business name can give potential customers the impression that your business is more legitimate and trustworthy. It can also help you attract more investors and partners who may be hesitant to do business with a sole proprietorship or partnership.

    If you’re starting a business, consider forming an LLC to protect yourself and your assets.

  • Why I Stopped Drinking Alcohol

    Why I Stopped Drinking Alcohol

    As a performer & entertainer it seems like drinking is just part of the job.

    Had a great show? 🍾 Let’s go drink!

    Awful show? 🍻 Let’s go drink!

    Someone enjoyed the show? 🥂 Let me buy you a drink!

    While I was in it, I didn’t think there was a problem.

    Once I had enough distance, I realized just how much I was ruining things.

    In this video I wanted to share my story in case you’re thinking about giving up alcohol, how you might go about & what you can expect to face from friends & family.

    I genuinely want to hear from you about your situation, your challenges, and what might be holding you back.

  • How To Have A Personal Database Across Devices And How To Encrypt It

    How To Have A Personal Database Across Devices And How To Encrypt It

    Obsidian is one of my favorite programs that I use every single day. It helps me keep track of my to-dos, my ideas, things I read, stuff I learn, and everything else goes in my own “digital journal / database.”

    The biggest challenge I had with it?

    All the files live on my computer, which is great until I want to write a note on my other computer.

    We’re so used to using “the cloud” that we assume that it’s ‘just baked in.’ But, when you truly own the data, that’s a problem you get to solve.

    And this is the way I solve it.

    Additionally, I wanted my information to be more secure than just sitting on my harddrive. I have bank accounts, passwords, and all sorts of juicy information in my database. So, how do I keep it safe?

    Encrypt the whole damn thing!

    So, in the video I explain how I:

    1. Made my own personal cloud that I can use on all my devices without using anyone else’s computers.
    2. Encrypt the whole thing so it’s secure regardless of what device I use to see the database.

    The meta-lesson is how to find solutions that work for you even if it takes a little bit of effort.
