N E T F L I X

yep. an unusual title for a post ... but it is knitting related.

i haven't had cable tv (never have had satellite) in maybe 11 years? there are things i'd like to watch on cable tv, but it's too expensive, and i've found i can live without it. i like lots of different channels, and i don't think they're sold "a la carte". regardless, it's a time suck, and i'm pretty awesome at finding multiple ways to practice avoidance behavior.

i do have Netflix, and it's worth every penny! i love to binge watch tv shows. that sounds unhealthy, right?

right now, i'm watching ALIAS. i never watched it when it was broadcast on regular television. i'd heard of it, but was probably busy doing other things.

the first year i went to SAFF (2007), there was a yarn dyer that sold "tv yarns".

day 1 of SAFF

HEY STUART !!!

see the crazy hot pink & black/gray yarn? ... i knew nothing of the tv show, but liked the colors. it sat in stash forever .....

flash forward, 2013 ... i finally wound a hank into a ball!

and i laughed at myself for loving this yarn for so long, bought with the tv show name alias, and finally, finally, decided to watch this on netflix.

Look at the way my pal Wesley Virgin's story begins in this SHOCKING AND CONTROVERSIAL VIDEO.

As a matter of fact, Wesley was in the army-and shortly after leaving-he unveiled hidden, "mind control" secrets that the government and others used to get whatever they want.

THESE are the EXACT same tactics tons of celebrities (especially those who "became famous out of nothing") and the greatest business people used to become rich and famous.

You probably know that you use less than 10% of your brain.

Mostly, that's because most of your brainpower is UNCONSCIOUS.

Maybe this thought has even taken place INSIDE OF YOUR own head... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's head about seven years back, while riding an unregistered, trash bucket of a car with a suspended driver's license and with $3 on his banking card.

"I'm absolutely fed up with going through life check to check! When will I finally succeed?"

You took part in those types of conversations, am I right?

Your success story is waiting to be written. You need to start believing in YOURSELF.
