I've been a bit busy these past couple of days and didn't allocate my time properly so I missed a few blog days. My bad. I'm still a work in progress. But here's an update on today (which was a really cool day).

I stayed up late Friday night reading the Bible. I know, wild and crazy night right? Lol. So I didn't get to sleep until 4 am, which led to me "sleeping in." I woke up and started to sort through all the sublimation printer information I received from the NBM conference. My goal is to produce all the hoodies and our other products here in the states so we can decrease our lead time, create jobs and get our products to our customers faster.

I'm prepping for my radio interview with Kennie Long from the Texas Youth Football Association. TYFA is the league that is on the show Friday Night Tykes. My nephew, John Harris (the irony, right? lol) who works as my Sales Manager put me in contact with him. We sent emails back and forth and we spoke on the phone Friday about H.E.A.R.T Athletics and the Helmet Hoody. He suggested I come onto the radio show and speak at length about our products, myself and the company. Needless to say, I stoked. The interview will be Monday, March 14th at 8 PM Central time.

I uploaded a video promoting the show time and will continue to do so until it airs. I'm not really a "look at me" guy anymore but I have to be when promoting the business because I want you to look at the business. Damned if you do, damned if you don't...

Other than that, I've just been sitting back and thanking God for bringing me this far. I don't have any issues at all with self-confidence, but starting something from scratch is kind of nerve wracking and at times there is some doubt that creeps in. *Every time I here the word creep I think of TLC. Weird...* Whenever that happens, I have to force myself to think positively because what you plant in your mind, your mind will return. So, just remember to plant only positive thoughts in your mind. And I'll do the same.

So I didn't PT this morning and that SHOULD be the first thing I do, other than brush my teeth, but the teeth got that work. My body did not. Went to a job fair. Trying to get on while here in Texas, but it's a process. So. I just gotta work the process. I applied to several places and I got a call back from once place I interviewed last week. Still holding out though. Not sure if I want to "settle".

I called back the people at FanPrint. They're really cool. I'm still trying to get these hoodies in their store but it's going to take a lot of work to do that. I'm not scared of work though. So they will be hearing from me a lot...Lol.

Did some social media marketing. Thinking about uploading more videos online instead of just Snaps. I can't front though, I love SnapChat. You should follow me by the way. Because I'm really funny. @kinghenryII.

I was excited to know that all of my Helmet Hoody deliveries made it to their destinations on time today. Everyone was stoked with them. So if you're happy, I'm happy. I'm just that simple.

Spoke with my oldest nephew today and he suggested I contact Kennie Long from the show "Friday Night Tykes". So I did. Cool thing was, he hit me up almost instantly. I sent him an email about the company and our products and hopefully we can make a deal. The least I'm working for is to get onto his radio show. So that's another avenue.

Still waiting to hear back from Shark Tank. I know it's coming, I'm just impatient. Sidenote, impatience is one of the WORST attributes to have as a DB. Thank God for "makeup" speed...

Went to Whataburger with my cousin E tonight. That shit is sitting in my stomach like a cinder block.

Anywho, I'm heading over to a garment printing event in Fort Worth tomorrow. Looking to get some insight on the process so I can make all my products inhouse to increase turnover time and reduce overhead. Thanks for listening. Peace.
