DIFFICULT IS NOT AN EXCUSE! Even though I’ve squeezed that excuse to death at this point, I’m still holding on to it as if it’s still alive and serving its purpose for me.

The Prequel
The Prequel by: Bad Boy Mike Prequel to what you ask? That’s a great question. I’m already rethinking the title of this. Maybe “The Excuse” would be a bit more of a realistic title, but—there’s that famous word that prepositions itself right before the delivery of any excuse, but—writing this prequel serves a purpose. It’s […]
Bad Place, Good Decision
Bad Place, Good Decision by: Bad Boy Mike When it comes to decisions, I have a smorgasbord of them in my past. All different kinds, styles, and flavors. Literally, it’s a pick & choose type of buffet. Some have been good, others great. Some look, smell, and taste absolutely atrocious, others are simply horrible; no […]

Internal Battles
INTERNAL BATTLES I’ve had a hard time writing anything this past month because my mind has been kicking my ass. I spent three months typing up the 7-challenge self-rehabilitation project I created for prisoners. The project’s main purpose is for prisoners to eliminate excuses and take control of their future.

I’M BACK HELLO, HELLoo, HELlooo, HEllo, Helloo, hellooo… That’s my representation of an echo. I’ve been gone since May 10th, and it feels like I’ve been lost in the Grand Canyon. I’m sure if I yelled out “hello” there, that’s what I imagine it would sound like. Anyway, I’m glad to be back. I have […]
