What Happens In Vegas Stays In Vegas

Ever heard this saying before?

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas

Well I have and it’s not necessarily true since I got engaged in Las Vegas and now that I’m back in Mexico I remain engaged… wtf!

Apparently that would be a bad thing but on this occasion I think it’s fantastic.

So let’s roll up our sleeves and get to the core of what happened up there (or at least most of it).

Impossible To Tell You All About It

I took a lot of written and mental notes of the things that happened throughout this experience in Las Vegas and after realizing I have around 8 gb of recorded video and about 470+ pictures it’s just impossible for me to tell you all about it.

I thought I could just record a video summarizing the whole thing and I think I spoke about 1/5 of the things I did there and the video resulted in 34 minutes long so nobody is going to watch that either.

As I learnt so many things, have so many ideas, so many videos, the only thing that comes to my mind are these points:

  • I can show you a few pictures about the experience
  • Tell you the three most important things I learned about this
  • Let you know where I’m going to now
  • Upload all the videos I think are cool enough (including the super long one I just recorded)
  • And let you know the power of writing things down

So let’s get it started!  Continue Reading →

Off For A Week!

off for a weekOkay, this is the shortest post you’ll ever see here.

I have about half an hour to go pick up my girlfriend.

Even though we leave at 7:45 pm (it’s currently 4:31 pm) I don’t like to be running around to catch buses or planes when I’m traveling.

So… as I don’t have any time left whatsoever, let’s just jump to video here (it’s very short for obvious reasons too! lol)  Continue Reading →

Las Vegas And What The Heck Have I Been Doing Lately

Going to Aria at Las VegasI’m finally going to Las Vegas!

This is happening on this very same weekend and if you think I have enough time to write this update, you’re definitely wrong.

Time is the last thing I have so I created a video and just spoke away all that I have been doing in the past days.

Obviously is not quite all of it since I have done a lot more things but the ones I mention here are the most important ones.

The Video

Okay here’s the video and for all the blog hoppers and backlink seekers, it’s very long but fear not, I have also wrote a few things I discussed on video so you can still write something relevant to the post by skimming through the written content (see? I’m two steps ahead of you! lol)  Continue Reading →

Don’t Wait. Time Will Never Be Just Right.

time will never be just rightWoot, I’m (finally) back!

I don’t know how you guys and gals have been doing lately but I hope you’ve been doing great.

The reason I’m not aware of that is because I disappeared a little bit from your blogs, twitter, facebook, my own blog and the whole Internet…

Heck, I dissappeared from everywhere since I had the “pleasure” to be put in jail last weekend!

I was released the same day but honestly I was so frustrated with that situation that I wanted my feelings to calm down before actually letting you know about it.

I’ll be brief since I don’t want to get pissed from this again.

The Birthday Celebration

It was a Saturday night just like any other weekend, I went out to pick my girlfriend then we went to a friend’s house. We had a couple of beers there to catch up since a couple of friends had just arrived from the USA and then we went on our way to a Country Club where one of my girlfriend’s best friends was having a small birthday celebration on.

So far, so good.

We had a few rounds of beer, we also had sushi for dinner and some appetizers and then we called it a day at about 2:00 am.  Continue Reading →

Who The Heck Is Sergio Felix?

Sergio FelixOkay folks… it’s time to get personal.

I recently joined a marketing challenge created by Dean Holland.

It has been based around “challenges”.

So everyone is being ultra responsive about completing these challenges since we started the training (hint!).

The Video Challenge

The latest challenge was to create a video about the training.

No strict rules, just say you’re enrolled in the training, what do you expect to learn from it, stuff like that.

So far, I have seen VERY creative videos and other videos that maybe aren’t that good but nevertheless, people are taking MASSIVE action.

Me… I’m not very good at following step by step things.

I tend to check out what the goal is and then I do it MY WAY.

So I created my video.

Even though I DO mention Dean Holland’s Challenge, the video can be watched by anyone who wants to see what my current situation is.

Warning: There is absolutely ZERO sugar coating on this video.

The first step in making things right is accepting there’s a flaw so I’m GAME for this.

The video is unedited, the only thing I did to it was to take the original audio out and synchronize an audio file recorded with a lapel mic and an audio portable device.  Continue Reading →

Dad Has Cancer

Cancer LiveStrongAll righty guys, cancer finally made it to my family.

I have plenty of my own websites to take care of and even keep providing service to a few offline clients and you know what? I can’t focus.

My dad has just been told he has cancer.

The real bad one and spread all over his spine already.

I can’t stop thinking what is going to happen next to be honest.

Mexican Families

Mexican families are tight.

Like ridiculous tight, we don’t have that “you’re 18 now, you’re supposed to be out of the nest now, go on, fly!“.

I have friends that are 40+ years old and they still live at their parent’s house.

Obviously this is not the vast majority but it happens and it’s not something uncommon in Mexico.

So to make a long story short, dad is also diabetic (can’t have any sugars).

Sergio Felix Sr. & Sergio Felix Jr.

Has always kept a very strict diet, made exercise daily and today it appears to have prostate cancer and according to some study, it has spread already to his spine.  Continue Reading →

Thank God It’s Monday

Yay for Mondays!

I have Dan Miller’s book “No More Dreaded Mondays” but I haven’t read it yet…

Do you want to know why?

Work.

Not Knowing When To Stop Working

I think I have been working way too much lately.

Won’t get into much details but the consequences of this are that I gained a lot of weight, I suddenly can’t sleep, I can’t seem to get anything done, I feel tired all the time and sometimes I even feel I can’t breathe.

It has become that bad (and embarrassing too).

The worst of all, is that even though I think I’m “working a lot” it is not showing off on the front-end of anything I’m doing.

So I took a quick time out to look at myself from a different perspective and I think I may have found the problem (or the solution more likely).  Continue Reading →

Fail Rollercoaster

sergio felix rollercoasterWoot!

Yesterday was a fail rollercoaster left and right and boy was that an interesting day.

It all started pretty good, I had plans to de-clutter my workplace, my external hard drives and leave everything set and ready for the big day.

The Upgrade

Turns out I bought some computer hardware from Amazon like two weeks ago for the new computer rig I have been working on.

computer almost ready

New Computer Almost Ready To Go

My main computer died on me not too long ago so I needed something else to work with and decided to build a new computer from scratch.

Right now I have a crappy desktop computer and an old Macbook.

I really can’t use these computers for anything that requires some decent processing power.

And by ‘anything’ I mean basic stuff like video recording, video editing and all those tasks that are required in order for you to create a quality product to sell.  Continue Reading →

Merry Christmas

Christmas GiftsHo, Ho, Ho, Merry Christmas everyone!

On this post there’s not much to say or do, it is more about sharing and wishing you all the best on this Christmas Eve and that you’re in company of your loved ones.

As for me, we’re having some delicious dinner plates tonight, plenty of gifts to open and I feel so blessed to have all my family together!

Mom has been cooking all day long and getting everything ready so I’m guessing she’s not feeling as excited as we are lol but she’s happy alright.

So, I don’t want to take much of your time today, I’ll just leave you with this video I just made for you.

Hope you guys enjoy it and be on the lookout for some Christmas presents!

Merry Christmas Video

Thank you for all your support, speak soon guys! ;-)
