Pimping the Attention Economy: Reclaiming Our Time, Rebuilding Our Power

Pimping the Attention Economy: Reclaiming Our Time, Rebuilding Our Power Check one, check two... You hear me now? I mean read me now? Good. Let's get into it. There’s a new economy out here—and it’s not built on dollars, gold, or crypto. It’s built on attention . And if you’re not paying attention to what you’re paying attention to, you’re getting pimped . I’m calling this one: Pimping the Attention Economy . But don’t get it twisted—this ain’t about exploitation. It’s about elevation. It’s about learning how to leverage the most valuable currency we’ve got in this digital age: our time and our focus. The Realest Currency is Time Let’s keep it 100—money comes and goes. But time? Time don’t play. Once you spend it, it's gone. So here’s the challenge: How are you spending your attention each day? What are you investing in—mentally, spiritually, culturally? The attention economy is built on you . On your clicks. Your views. Your scrolls. Your shares. And while the system is built...

MP3 beef I Have (how artist may be losing money)

My hero and future star
With my new phone I have finally figured out how to listen to my MP3 player. I have began using Amazon Cloud Player to purchase tunes that I really like.
First I am noticing the beauty and power of MP3 as a financial tool for artist and a matter of convience for the listener. Now I am free to buy music that I like and don't have to worry about storing the music. Coming from the old school either I had to have space to keep my records or cds which could turn into a burden especially when you move like I do. Now I can just push a button on my computer while listening to pandora and purchase some music, and even better I can pick through an album and get the music I like rather than buying a whole album.
Hence the reason for the article. I have noticed that some artist maybe losing some money by not allowing the fan to purchase individual cuts. Some records make it so you have to buy the whole album, and for me I will walk away. I could not help but to wonder how many other people do the same. So I feel it is good for artist to make it availible to purchase tracks as well as the album.
99 cents beats no cents I feel.
Thanks for reading my rant

How to pour Libations

Image
We pour libations/ to connect with all that is/ and to cleanse our hearts/ I need to start this article by stating this information is based on my personal experience. I have been pouring libations for at least 20 years all over the country and personally. Libations for me is a process of remembering, and connecting or re-connecting to not only the Spirit but everything around us . When we pour libations we are opening ourselves as well as the group to the axe ' of the entire Universe . I first must admit that I do not belong to a group, sect or religious order. I am a lay man who have made a personal connection with the world, and the spirit. By pouring Libations we strengthen these relationship. So let me define a few things first so that we can be on the same page. Libations - the process of pouring or giving a sacrifice to form a connection with this world and the spiritual realm. Spirituality - the state of establishing and maintaining relationships Axe...
