The value of man

• The value of man

What is your value? Where do you stand with those around you. Most importantly, where do you stand with yourself? Your personal value will help grow value with others. In life you must embrace your personal value. Other people may or may not think highly of you, but they don't get that beautiful opportunity to walk a mile in the shoes of your soul. They only get to spectate, and thus speculate who/what you are to this world. They could never truly understand you unless they were you. You will be the only one guaranteed on your death bed. Everyone else might be, but who knows. Live your life.

You want things in life? Go after it. You deserve it. When I hear people talk themselves out of obtaining their desires it saddens me. Obviously go after your desires in a fashion which keeps others out of harms way. Positivity leads to positive outcomes. Also the action of doing helps a lot too. Knowing your value creates motivation, and destination, toward your personal goals. Unhappy at your job? Great, go get the one job you want. It will take hard work and effort, but you deserve to live a life within your own parameters. When people say you can't, then what does that tell you about their value?

I know my value. It keeps me centered. If people disapprove of my actions I ignore their concerns, unless I am physically hurting them, or being outright mean to them personally. What I am expressing is that I live my life. If people tell me I shouldn't be doing comedy because it isn't a normal job, I ignore them. I won't poke them in their eyes, though they surely deserve it! There are many things that bother me about people and their actions, yet I know their value as people. I continue on my day and ignore the things that bother me, as they have the right to be true to themselves also! Value You!

Every life is one in kind

(A sixth entry from the mind of Lord Telmorn Altayon. Follow his fears, his strengths... ~Thomas J. Bellezza)

• Every life is one in kind

Hatred is a colored ray of tasteless emotion. Peeking down our throats waiting to destroy our daily intake of hope. Cramped in sensual rot iced over in human remains. While red splashes of painful memories elevate lost thoughts praying to break free of loneliness, fear and shame. Look around, sneak a peek of others standing near you. We bleed, we breathe, we cry, we feel, we die all the same. Tall or short, black or white, the world is limited by our wicked resentment taught to us by mindless zombies educating a lack of reason to each generation. Even sadder are those who stay hidden in cutout mockeries set to fuel stereotypes designed to blind even the smallest of truths. Judge, point, hiss and miss the point of how beautiful the world could be with each soul walking side by side, hand in hand, to a melody beating through every heart, every life, as each of us were one in kind.

Experiment

• Experiment

Making the world go round one day at a time. When I was 17 I dropped out of high school leaving for the world of music. I believed I would one day become successful solely on the fact that I was “awesome”, “amazing”, and “unique”. At such a young age how was I suppose to know everyone is unique, some truly amazing, and anyone who is creating expression through any art form is awesome! Needless to say, I had a band “TENEbRAE” and with my newly found friend playing drums and me on guitar. I had the world in front of me.

Truth be told, I was no where near being successful based on how Uniquely awesome my amazing talents were. Because they weren't. I was on par with everyone else who worked hard for their craft. So what changed? 7 years into playing with this band I began studying success. I learned the value of running it like a business. Once this happened, I began playing festivals, touring, got to play Canada, and even sat down to workout a record deal. All in 3 years worth of effort as a business.

10 years in music and I was done. I just didn't have the drive for it anymore. Short story; I walked away from it all. I continued to run BBR Productions Inc. so I may work on projects I enjoyed: Organizing shows to raise money for Cancer, and MS. While also working with other entertainers to help them make things happen based on my personal experience. I turned BBR Productions Inc. into a strong Consulting, Marketing and Development company. After 15 years of running my business I opened up a theater, for a total of 17 years thus far. I am Still working hard, and enjoying my freedom.

Yes, I closed down my theater, but I am still running BBR Productions Inc. and jumping back into the world of entertainment as an entertainer myself. I have been out of the spotlight for far to long. I love making people react to an emotion; be it music, comedy, acting, writing, or the beauty of art. This is where I belong. But Experiment? What is that about? Since 2007 I have enjoyed a life of casually being involved with projects but never took it seriously. A few of my clients, and some potential clients ask me, from time to time, “If you know how to do it why are you not doing it?”

Well... I told them it was easy, so it is only right that I prove that my methods, teachings, philosophies, and the power of living your life like a business truly works. Proof is in the pudding? 6 months ago I made a decisions to be more than just a person who helps individuals, or business, achieve their goals. Between TV Scripts, Reality shows, a comedy tour, my new band, finishing a book, acting, joining the actor's union, maintaining a growing company, building my brand value on line, and truly loving the fun of it in less than 6 months... I would say my theory that it takes 365 days is on par.

Bring reality to your dreams before you become stuck in the nightmare of a life you never wanted!

So, my experiment is working. Watch what I am doing, learn from it, make it happen for yourself. Instead of judging, or making fun of it, ask questions. Think about what is being completed. Remember, we learn from listening not ignoring. I want people to succeed. I am not here to fight with anyone. And if you ever need help, I am a phone call, email, or building location away!

Death Race

• Death Race

Death Race, now that is the way you start off something grim. Today I am going to explain the beauty of Death, and our race to get there. There is a beauty in death because it tells us the end is near. There is a beauty in death because we never know when she'll be here. There is a beauty in death that makes us some times shiver, and some times never ever at all. There is a beauty in death that tells us to truly care about who we are, what we do, and who we love with in this life.

Fear of death seems so wasted. Why think of death when you can think of life. The stresses that come with everything all day, everyday. I once watched a video that helped place some perspective into my own life. If the video was real or not, it was the nail in the coffin to wake me up more than I have already become. I consider myself on the route to enlightenment since the day a doctor told me I was going to die of a brain tumor. (lucky for me, it turned out to be something else).

The video is of about 3 or 4 cars sitting at a red light. The light turns green, people honk their horns and everyone rushes forward the moment the light turns to go. Moments later a huge Trailer Truck smashed through every car in the lane through the red light and bam... they were gone. If only they looked both ways, took a moment more at the light. What changed me was the thought of this--

What were they thinking before the end? Were they worrying about their life? Where they were, or how well they were doing? Where their kids unaware of all the beauty they had lived and yet maybe the parents were worried about all the things they had not lived through themselves up till this age? What would I have been thinking right before I never was again? What would you have been thinking at that light right before you died and never saw it coming?

I thought, live. What's the worst the world can do to me? I've been poor, I've had money, I knew what hate and love was. I knew what it was to be stressed all the time, and worrying about things that in that flash of a moment no longer mattered. I am aware of the Death Race, but I am unaware of how many laps I get. Enjoy the ride while living your purpose. Say yes to possibility, say yes to your Life Race.

Day 190 of 365

• Day 190 of 365

When does it end? Never! The fight to bring reality to a dream is all about hard work all day... okay, maybe 8 hours a day. Four hours if you want to take it slow. Desire, on occasion, may outweigh the action to do. What Top of the Bottom Pile has accomplished in 190 days is no short of hard work. We have agreed that at this point the group is really at 2, maybe 3 months, in of the 365 days of working hard. Though our 6 month mark has come and gone.

Being ahead of the game with that kind of ratio is great news. As I work hard to make things happen on the back end with deals, and tours. The team mentality is working together for a common goal. Each of us is handling a specific social media site. Then we continue to build our own brand value. All in all, three heads are better than one. When it comes down to it, if one of us ever lacked for a week or so, the other two people make up for it.

It is hard to do what we are accomplishing since you need freedom. I, Thomas J. Bellezza, live a free life compared to Kenny Murdock, and Roger Skai. School, jobs, etc, they limit, YET, we are making sacrifices to see it through. I asked them for a full “actual” 365 days of time to see my technique work, already things are happening that some would consider premature. Hard work, dedication, SMART Goals, and a budget of time/money continues to prevail.

I am proud to be the best of the worst on the Top of the Bottom Pile with my brethren of comedy!

New York City

• New York City

I love the windy city, wait, wrong template intro. Ah, the big orange? Pear? Apple! The big Apple during the winter months is the equivalent to standing in a meat locker during Rocky's training session. Beat the meat, beat it good and hard. But always wrap your hands so you don't hurt yourself. There is one thing I can say about New York City: It is alive. I've been all over the world... Okay, more like North America, and New York City has shown me more in less space. I hate the city, I love the experience! I hate it because I am a country boy, give me miles between neighbors, YAY. What I love about the city is what you learn during your time there. Who people are and what amazing history each step has beneath your feet.

People have said to me “Thomas, move to LA... Move here, move there, move everywhere.” I can't because I don't want to. I love New York in general. Upstate, downstate, Long Island, the city and yes, even Staten Island... kind of. Living in Florida, or traveling around America with my metal band, I learned one thing: More happens in New York than anywhere I have ever been. Now, there might be events happening in other places, and I can't give an opinion on, say, Europe (Since I have never been there), but what New York gives you is opportunity. The history of life flows through these streams of life. Dreams that came from other countries poured through the streets hoping to make something happen.

Between comedy, music, acting and writing I feel the best when I am expressing myself through success. Each step I take is calculated. It helps not having a day job, as I am my own boss in life. It also helps that I have a very specific plan. One of which I have taught to other people for over 17 years. This is my life because I took the actions to make it my life. When people say they can't bring their dreams to reality I give them a confused look. Because they can, they have the power, just lack the will and the plan. I reached out and was advised, I reached out and studied success, I reached out and found possibility by creating opportunity! The act of doing is the hardest part until you are rolling down the hill of SUCCESS!!!

Day 150 of 365

• Day 150 of 365

When the day comes where you feel results through action are going smoothly, you must stop and reevaluate your accomplishments. The first 365 days should not be easy. Smooth makes people whom are starting out, slow down. This why there should always be a person leading the charge. A leader does not own the team, or the effort. Their job is to maintain action, and motivate results. One other job a leader must have to ensure a strong team effort: The power to teach. When that is taken away there is little left that can be completed.

Each member has a special purpose in Top of the Bottom Pile. Each of those talents help mobilize a greater cause. As a unit we will see greater things happen. A goal; be stronger than the smooth easy path, stronger than the calm. A good kick in the butt once in a while is needed! Who doesn't enjoy being kicked in the ass. Again, easy is not what makes success happen. Work hard at what you want, but have a plan! We have a plan, we have a marketing company, and a consultant helping us bring things to life. Life to that plan.

There is a mantra heard over and over: Network, Market, and Practice. It is known by heart now as it continues to heard each week at our meetings. Things we are also remember; Shows are not our first priority. So what then? Where are we leading? What is going to happen when we hit our 180 days of 365? A month away will have us half way through a year. Good or bad? It might not be too bad we became smooth operators! Keep digging into this world of action. There are amazing S.M.A.R.T. Goals before us! One after the other, one step will become many steps forward!

For the hardest thing to do... is to DO!
