Sometimes we think we got it. We have this mastermind idea/plan that will be a hit, but sadly turns into a bust even after making several attempts...
Does this sound familar? It should. As the producer of the Ryusin Show on Youtube, I've hit these kind of dilemmas in my life a lot. I guess we just realize that since we are human... that not every action we execute will go about according to plan... and that we will mistakes. Yet a simple piece of advice could turn ya in the right direction; Don't give up. Just Think Different.
So maybe your last dream didn't become a reality no matter how much you tried. Well, I can say one thing for certain. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Not a very wise idea; so I don't mean to be a life coach here (Even though I sound like one) but if you just awake to the fact that many of our dilemmas in life are universal. To experience the pain of failure is something we've all experienced. To experience the disapointment of not succeeding is a GREAT THING...
When we fail- we learn. When we win- we sometimes get a bit over over our heads and end up failing again. Thus you could say it's kinda a vicious cycle... I suppose you just need to find out -WHAT WORKS-- and what doesn't. That's how all youtube celebs made themselves sensations- they found out what works and their audience will continue demanding more and more...
So, it's really not so much a matter of replicating someone else's success but rather perhaps you can get inspiration from their success and game plan and either try to make it your own or brainstorm an entirely original idea and see how it goes.
Either way, I wish you luck my friend. Remember Bruce Lee's quote....
"BE WATER MY FRIEND"
Look up the entire quote on google. Anyways, when I think of that quote I think of how versatile water is... water can flow, crash, pour, sink, dissolve- much like success itself. If you wanna keep the water flowing then you have to keep feeding your dream. Like a plant, be patient. Success isn't always an overnight thing- but once it blossoms- you can continue to flourish at your gift. Bruce Lee's gift was martial arts- it's time to find out your talent- feed it, nurture it, and when it takes off.... show the world what your made of... Like the almighty Bruce Lee!
Aside from being a great Martial artist, Bruce Lee was also wise in his deliberations. When he fought, he not only fought not only with strenth but his inner wisdom. A wisdom that takes time to grow... but a life time to master...
Now's the time to... Think Different. If your last deliberation didn't work out so much, don't give up- just try harder. Persistance is a virtue my friend....

Your Dreaming NOW
I have not yet seen the movie "Inception" but I've been interested in the topic of dreams and life for quite some time. I'd like to introduce a theory that may or may not already be publicly out there (I bet it is, but I'd like to offer my own thoughts for fun anyway)
My theory is called the "Your Dreaming NOW Theory" Crappy title? Maybe. But I think it's blunt and to the point. I know it sounds crazy... like really- Your dreaming now? I'm dreaming now? Well how is this a dream?!
Well... it's a dream in the sense of how reality and dreams word in the same matter. You are what you think. You live what you think. Your whole life is just one big dream and some of the bad things that do come into your life are more or less likely influenced by negative external influences such as the media-- The news, TV shows, Internet, Friends etc.
I think it's plausable to say that when we witness a horrible or unfornate scenario, even if fictional on Television- this vision get's implanted in our brain... Remember the Simon and Garfunkel song? "... And the visions... that were implanted in our brain... still remain" from their song "Sound of Silence"? I thought that'd be a good little analogy. Anyways- it's really complex to explain but I'm trying to put it into terms that all of can comprehend.
So--> even if my theory were in fact true- Why should you care and does this change your life in any shape or form? Yes and No. It depends how deeply you are willing to accept my theory into your life and if you do choose to do so- what changes will you make?
I have *THOUGHT* that by this time, I would have a much larger following of blogger subscribers then what I do currently (Only a measly 5) but perhaps that's because I didn't believe strongly enough in that vision. Perhaps thinking something alone just isn't enough. You have to envision it happening now - in the moment- in order for it to stand any substantial chance of becoming a reality. I'm not a religious person, but perhaps this power is so real, so extroadinary that you might already be using it in your life and you just don't realize it yet.
You can call this luck or whatever- but I have been in various close encounters with cars when riding my bicycle or walking down the street trying to cross a main road. There's a lot of horrible, careless drivers out there. We all know that- what's even more incredible is the # of times a car has almost hit me on a bike and I seemingly always seem to avoid it.
I remember as a 8 yr old kid riding on the wrong side of the street near my Grandmother's house and dodging a car on my scooter as the last minute. A more recent instance--> I recall a woman who was making a right turn in her huge SUV and litterally came within inches of hitting me until she saw me crossing the road at the last minute. I had a feeling in my mind before crossing the street that this could happen... unconscious and consciously but that my 'invisible Guardian Angel' would protect me and miracolously this has happened time and time again. I'm not saying I'm invinsible but I just find it kinda shocking how I was able to pull off all of this without ever getting a scratch - Perhaps it is just luck.
I don't care if you think it is- I think it's something more than just sheer luck. Maybe the same has happened to you and I think that you just might be practicing the "Your Dreaming NOW theory" without your conscious realization of it.
If my theory is true- I suppose the hardest part is trying to install an entirely new mindset within yourself to eliminate all negative thoughts with good, positive thoughts. It's tough no doubt so maybe the best step is to start small. You can keep your Grand, lofty dreams all you want. They make you happy don't they? They make me happy too.
But how about for once dreaming of something simple to come into your life. Something that you can convince yourself that is very believable and plausable to happen.
Well, more on this another time. I'm getting kind of tired now. It is 2 AM........... Adios folks!

~Ryusin Poetry~
Poetry says' it's best. I don't care what they say- it's better then all the rest. Rhyme a dime, hey; at least I ain't commitin a crime- No, no... Just writing on a moments whim... letting my heart write to it's limitless content... and so there we have it; poetry at it's finest has no script, has no direction- it simply flows on a feelings whim... a whim that just might be a bit of brilliance if ya believe in those hands of yours to type to your hearts content again and again...
~Time Again?~
Time again. Why won't you gimme a break? You keep wrecking my fate. You keep making me late! Why must you move so fast, have last I lost it? I think not! Time, time - your with me again, working against me like some cruel twisted form of fate. I can't rate you or even define you- your just that annoying pest who shames me time and time again.
Time again. Leave me alone. Let me win again. Let me live life like I want - without your constant haunt that I'm late again. Time, time, to let go again. It's tommorow again. Yesterday was the same as the next and the last. Oh forget the past- I'd give a dime to make you go away again... Time... Time... if i could that is....
================

"Everyday is exactly the same"
Remember Yesterday? It felt like today. Remember last week? It felt like today. Remember last month? It felt like today. Everyday is exactly the same. There is no shame, there is no pain, There is no love, there is no way such could be true, but sad to say such is very true indeed.
You can't cry. You can't sigh. You are nothing but the same. To whatever you do now, it's all the same. You dream of fame, you ponder of the thought of another way- but either way- everything is always the same. Why did life take a knife to you in such a way? It is some sick joke?! No, it's actually your own silly play. For you see--> Everyday is what you make of it, for yes, there is a lot of the same- but for every dream- there is a way. a way out of this haunted maze. A way to a path where everyday will no longer be the same... same.... same... ya see, it's like a game.
Your the player. Life is the game. You just can't have it your way. Your loosing now, but don't fret, it might not always be this way. Your okay... believe me... everyday is the same but something will change this twisted way... believe me.... believe me you must, or forever be stuck in the same... same.... same....

"Chewin my gum, thinkin like a thug"
Yeah, that's right. I'm chewin my gum and thinkin like a thug- Tired of being this person you always mug. Your the criminal and I'm the beast. Tonight- I'll make you my feast. I'll take you down in your shame and make you know I am no longer the same. I'm king now- Yeah, that's right. Chewin you down and spittin you like a peice of.... oh what's that?
Don't be like that. I told you I'm a thug... heh, I might even say your a skunk! because, let's be honest now.... it's reverse now... You were once king and now I am loud and proud - No longer can you take me, shape me or mold me into what you desire... and how you have that deep fire to do ever so... no more shall you do so.
I'm a thug... or so I say... but really I'm just admitting that now I'm okay. Because I'm at top again, stronger the before... and you.... well... heh, all I can feel for you is simple pity that you are no longer.... Anymore.
===============
===============
"Please, do so"
If you want to do it. Simple yet scary, yet scary yet ... oh forget it! It's just not as easy as you tell me so! You act like it's so easy... if only you understood my side... but let's be real: We can't hide anymore. You said you wanted help so I said 'what can I do' you told me all you had too and then you paused... Why?!
Why could you do such to me? Trust is surely like a peice of clay... you can see I am solid and strong...a foundation that will last forever lure. However decieving you may see me to be, please understand that whether you like it or not- I'm on my way. I'm on my way to dive into you. Feed you. Live you. but never- will I ever, scold or mold you. Your fine doing things your own way. Please, do so. Do what you wish... but remember I told you my only wish! but it's over now- I'm on my way! I can't stand to stand still forever more!!! I need to know you are doing things your own way... Why? well it all begins with 'Please, do so' because hey, I'm not one to exagerate... Be my guest really... PLEASE, DO SO. Take a risk. Meanwhile, let me insert this floppy disc into my PC..... ANTIQUATED EVER SO! but so are you- Stop relishing on the long lost forever more and move on ever so, toward your own way... your own path...
Please, do so.
Please, do so.

"Memory is like a drum..."
Memory is ever so like a drum. Beating in your head, never seeming to end. Memories of good and memories of bad- which do you remember more? Don't tell me... I can already see just by the way you looked at me. You want it to continue or you want it to end? Make your mind before this becomes a memory of ever so regret....
and... like a drum... like a drum
We keep marching on... In search of new memories, in search of new that we never forsaw. I'm not genie but I can certainly say, that your in for a surprise, unless you stay consumed in this very memory... memory...
and like a drum...
you say, what now? what do you desire? that fire in your eyes is only HALF the story... your mind truly stores it all. It's time you put down the drum and let this moment turn not just a memory... but an experience... oh but I'm no genie so forget what I say at last...
and like a drum.... like a drum....
Keep marching stranger.... march... march.... march to your own beat =)
