I've learned a ton of great strategies and approaches to really taking my Acting and Filmmaking Career to the next level, and I look forward to applying everything that I've learned and taking action on them by spending 30 minutes per day on activities that will move me in the direction of the accomplishment of my dreams and goals.
Gary Goldstein has taught me how to be a better human being, a better person, and a better friend. He is someone who I aspire to be more like in my daily interaction and communication with others as we all journey on the path together. He has reminded me of the true reason I want to accomplish my goals, and live the life of my dreams.
I look forward to taking action on a consistent and daily basis and recording my activities and the results that I am getting. It will be amazing to see how much I've accomplished in 30 days, 60 days, 90 days and 180 days.

I also managed to find myself a small investor who has given me the money I need to finish editing and hopefully scoring the 1st Webisode of BECOMING MAGNUM. I have about 6 hours of footage to go through and cut down to fit into a 22 - 25 minute window.
I'm doing a Pre-Edit for my editor Diane Fraser, and reviewing all of the footage, and then I'm using iMovie on my Mac Book to trim away the excess fat, and footage that we can't use, for whatever reason, in order to save both time and money.
I have to wait until tomorrow when I can pick up 2 External Hard Drives. They are currently at a friends whose couch I was surfing on last week. I had to move to my friend Sammy's place as Glen's landlord said I could no longer stay there.
Having Sammy in the room while I'm watching and thinking about what I'm going to edit has been tremendously educational. He is a member of the audience that I'm going to be showing BECOMING MAGNUM to when it is finished.
I'm conscious of what I don't want to show him, and why I don't want to show that (though I'm going to have to show a test audience some of the footage that makes me uncomfortable to see how they react to it vs. a version without that footage - and get their feedback on.)
It's also forcing me to be conscious of other reality based TV Shows are out there. Eg. Ultimate Fighter, Hell's Kitchen, Kitchen Nightmares, etc.
My Goal is to get the 1st Webisode cut together by Friday April 30th along with the Score, in addition to the 30 Min./day of applying Gary Goldstein SGWH Strategies.
My 2nd Goal is to be in LA May 11th with a copy of the DVD in hand and to have meetings with Agents, Managers, Producers, Directors, Casting Directors, Writers, etc. and really make this career move forward.
To our futures,
Mike.
