Man this video is EXTREMELY powerful and is really nicely produced and shot! Its like a mini doc. Really awesome work and thanks for telling your story! May the Lord Bless you and keep you!
Hey I called you up awhile back asking about 11x shirts and printing on them. Glad to see you're posting again. In regards to this video. I feel you man. Those same things go through my mind every day. I grew up in a house where being a male I wasn't allowed to have feelings. So all that bottled up for years. When I went into business myself from working normal jobs it all began to combine into brew of disaster, and I broke. Completely shut down. I worked and put on a face of this happy go lucky dude, but at home I was a shell. Just empty inside, but I had help. People who cared and knew what I was going through after I finally let them know. Thanks for sharing man. Keep going.
Good Stuff Brother I always ....through experience and counseling.... live in the present. I used to dwell on the past and it slowed down my progress in life. When I would think about the future it would stress me out. Now days I only focus on today, I didn't know that the bible says that but it enforces that the trials and tribulations that I have gone through are building me in gods light. I just lost my business to a bad partner and here I am 44 years old starting a new business and what do you know it's in merchandizing and screen printing is one of the things I do. You have been a big influence to me to move forward and hustle hard. Im not afraid of work and to get what I want through long hours and dedication. Head up brother and much love! God bless brother!
I struggle with this too. I used to print shirts in shops too and there were some days it got pretty dark. Hang in there! I love how you use playing cards to remove the ink, it keeps the screens safe and its super cheap! I was wondering about your squeegees? I heard of a tip about putting tape where the wood meets the squeegee and you can keep ink from getting in there. I was also wondering why don't you use gloves man? Plastisol ink is pretty gnarly. Just want to keep you safe man. Peace and Blessings.
Oh man this was me 5 weeks ago, I didn’t know what was happening, I have found out what set it off and am starting to work on it and am feeling better. Thank you for sharing brother.
Hey Brother John! I missed seeing your videos and I am so happy to see you back! I want you to know that I am praying for you, Bro! We need you! It is because of God, you and a few other screen printers that I have my own business. If you turn the word depression around it says “I Pressed On” Press on Bro. You mean the world to us
Being there myself lately, work is not doing great, I work and see no gains, it feels like all I do is I work to pay taxes. But well, it is good from time to time to see something like that, everybody is uploading how super great everything is in their lives, their shops, their families and this fk you up. You start wondering what is wrong with me, why everyone succeed and I struggle that much? What do I do wrong, what do I do different, etc. But in the end, it is ok to have difficulties, it is ok to not feeling super great all the time, it is ok to be sad, it is OK NOT to succeed in what you do and you had to try again. Thanks for this video!
I can agree. I myself have bouts of depression and anxiety. But I have managed to get it in control. What sucks is that I think i may also have situations with Borderline Personality Disorder and its a bitch (excuse my language) to control it. But I am still here, so i guess i am winning
