Be Proud.

Tonight on Jake's Showcase http://youtube.com/JakesShowcase my video "Jake Johnston - "How Much I Love You"" http://youtu.be/E5SlzuBN9Qg is at 206 Views 15 Likes 1 dislikes. Not great not terrible for two days, the surprise Friday posting of this video gives it an unusual viewing pattern.
I watched the Superbowl today with my father. Sometimes you just need some down time. I came to a realization today, somehow...that you don't have to be the the way you are Jake.
I'm choosing it or I've chosen it anyway and can choose my next path. Truth is my head and heart pounds a million beats per square inch. Like an anchor on the bottom of my heart, just sapping the life out of me driplet at a time. The heart wrench tears me up and had almost  made me insane.
But it doesn't have to be this way man. Really I'm an incredible man. I reflect on this Superbowl on how my life has changed since I've stopped drinking and the success I've had with that. I also reflected on the success of my YouTube channel. Not many people can quit drinking, and not many people can generate over half a million views on YouTube with nothing to work with.
Do you know that I don't even have proper computer or editing equipment? I don't even have the ability to make a thumbnail. My camera stand has been broken for over 2 years. I have nothing, yet look what I've done.
I can look at my scholastic achievements when that was my focus and my record breaking sales numbers when that was my focus. Really I think if and when I hit a million views for the channel overall I will believe I really can do anything. Watch out world, what will I decide to focus on next.....nanotechnology, life sciences, how about financial algorithms....we'll see. Politics has a ring.
I want to go to somewhere where no one has been able to go before.
I make things happen. I am able to go above and beyond. 
So be proud my man, be confident, for there is only a very small handful with your capacity.
God has gifted you, you have to choose in what to do with it.
But for now the hunt for 1 million views continues.
Have a Wonderful Day or Night Fans,
