New Chapter
You may have many questions, but I may not have all the answers. That’s why I haven’t been making any drastic changes. The past month I have been thinking a lot about what I am up to, I noticed I wasn’t as energetic anymore. The poker grind has become draining, I don’t feel the urge to study or play, it is whatever. So it takes a lot to be able to reach a decent level with playing and streaming, so much that afterwards I am just done and don’t feel like doing anything else. That doesn’t seem like a healthy lifestyle or a lot of fun to me, so I felt like I had to make a change.
It’s easy to stay in the same place, it’s hard to take the risk to break out
I am a big believer that anything is possible to a certain extent. Like I am not going to be able to be Usain Bolt or sing like Mariah Carey. But there are a lot of things that you can do and achieve as long as you want it bad enough and are willing to do the work. So if you believe that, why would you settle with something when you feel like there is more potential? Because it’s convenient and easy. I could continue staying where I am, fake the smile and take the paycheck. But I have always said that where I am, is for some their end goal.. but I haven’t started yet. Because I always had ambitions to do more, help more people, work more with like minded and connect those to achieve together greater results than we could individually. With that being said I also started to feel like streaming poker may not be the best path that leads towards those goals. Without the intention of hurting anyone’s feelings, I feel like in general the poker community is selfish. If you read comments as much as I do, look into (the intentions of) people’s actions, look into metrics.. I at least come to that conclusion. I don’t even know if it can be changed, it is somewhat the nature of the game. The change will have to start with ambassadors. Anyway, that’s at least how I perceive things and the things that went into my decision making to diversify and try out new things.
DWJOURNEY will be me documenting
So what does this mean? It means that I will spend more time creating other kinds of content, taking you with me on the journey to achieve my goals. Right now I am planning to acquire more clients for digital marketing. I have already been working with Raise Your Edge for the past months and have been enjoying that! I feel like I have gained some experience, have continued to improve myself and I think to be able to continue to grow I also have to try out different branches. So I will show what goes into my decision making, how I try to reach new clients, how I build my brand, how I make certain things, what I think about things. So it will be way more mainstream, marketing, social media, mindset and business side of things. But as I said at the start of my blog, I don’t know exactly where the DWJOURNEY is heading towards. Goals may change, the things you enjoy may change.. and I don’t shy away from taking the plunge and trying out new things. Love to anyone who supports me on this journey, let’s do this! Respect to everyone who says: sorry Stevie, I just follow you for the poker. It’s okay either way! I have to try out new things for myself, be happy.. and only then I can be of greatest worth for you guys as well.
