My Weirdness

If you are like me, then perhaps you believe that there is more to life than what there appears to be. Think about it for a while. Have you ever had Deja Vu? Ever saw something move in a place you swear you saw nothing a minute ago? Ever had vivid dreams that just make no sense? One time time I spent the whole night dreaming of streams of binary code. At the time I didn’t even know what binary code was! Have you ever heard someone call your name only to turn around and no one is there? Have you ever walked into a room and something just felt wrong? Call me crazy. Most people who know me think I am. This has been my life since I was five years old.

What is Your Value - by Sean Michael Paquet

What makes you Valuable?   OK, this post will be a little more about the self than it does about business, but the concepts still apply.  What makes you valuable? What do you value about yourself? What do other people that know you appreciate about you? Value. We can go on and on about friendship, love, partnership, and other similar concepts, but at the end of the day, it all boils down to value. What is your value to yourself, to other people, to the community? We all want to feel valuable. We want to know that we matter. Not just to ourselves, but also that our presence is valued. We want to know that somehow we contribute to the communal consciousness. What makes you valuable are your strengths. Those qualities about you that make you stand out from the slowly moving herd of humanity around you. Your strengths are what make you unique. That is your value. Firstly, YOU must see YOU as valuable to YOURSELF. This requires a great deal of self-reflection. You have to take a ha...

Do Your Research

  Hello everyone, So with my second book, The Jarl's Shadow at the publisher, one would think I would take some time to relax. Maybe watch movies, play video games, or even read books by other authors. No. I am already working on my third book in the trilogy, titled "The Hammer of The Bear." What do I mean by "working?" I could start freewriting to get my ideas down and go with what comes to mind, and yes, I will be doing that. However, the first thing I do before starting a new book is research. The Hammer of the Bear is based around the main character, Adnar Raynecksson. From the beginning of the trilogy in A GAME OF GODS, Adnar is the oldest of three siblings, and he is a Blacksmith by trade.  Since Blacksmithing is his chosen profession, I am researching not only how to do Blacksmithing but also what it takes to be a Blacksmith. I also have the privilege of knowing a childhood friend whose father was an actual blacksmith.  So we have Adnar, the m...

The Measurement of Success and Failure - by Sean Michael Paquet

Hello everyone! So today, I felt compelled to write about success and failure. I think these are concepts that everyone can identify with, whether you are a writer or not. What is success? How is it measured? For that matter, what is failure? So let's face it, we live in a very materialistic society. Such is the case no matter where on the planet you dwell. Success is based in terms of value. How much money do you have? How many toys do you've? How many friends? To a point, yes, having lots of money and toys and friends can be viewed as a sign of success. The same can be said for failure, lack of money due to poor business decisions, or the loss of friendship over often trivial matters. Perhaps failure can be viewed as the loss of a job or the loss of a close relationship. Someone who mattered more than anything in the world to you. The loss of a loved one. All of these can be viewed as failures in life. We look at challenges in life that we cannot overcome as failure...
