Which Car/Build made you guys find my channel? I’m curious 🤔

At the end of 2024 I decided to start a tradition for myself. Sum up the entire year in one word & expand on it. The word I chose to describe my life in 2024 is “Priorities”.

Going into 2024 I had set goals for myself. Fast forward to the end of 2024, I did not achieve any of them… Over the past couple weeks I have been reflecting on every possible reason I could think of as to why I didn’t achieve them. No matter how I wrote the equation in my head, I always came back with the same answer. Priorities. Although I didn’t achieve the specific goals I set for myself this year, I achieved so many other things that were NOT on the menu to be completed this year 😅. I wanted to hit 10k subscribers on YouTube, buy a new laptop/computer setup for editing, grow my short form content platforms, finish the turbo Honda & film tons of racing videos with it, build an entry level drift car, attempt to learn how to drift & possibly get a duramax. INSTEAD... I built fence on my property, landscaped my yard, built a bar style kitchen in my basement, finished the turbo Honda & broke it (only filmed 1 fun video with it), became a business owner & attended over 5 events selling product & promoting my brand @somethingcool.co throughout the summer, bought/built a ton of new equipment for my garage, started doing tires for people on the side to make some extra money & pay off the projects, played baseball all summer & hockey all winter, spent a lot of time with friends & even made some new ones. That’s all I can think of while writing this post, but I know I did way more than that 😅. The point is that not achieving my goals is nobody’s fault but my own. I chose to take on other projects & not prioritize my original goals. The constant dream of success eats me alive on the inside & I know I won’t stop until I get it. Everybody’s version of success is different, so I need to take a step back in 2025 & realize what it is that I truly enjoy, then prioritize that. “Do what you love & call it work, don’t work to do what you love”. That’s the mindset I’m going into 2025 with. I wish you all happiness & success in the new year ❤️

At the end of 2022 I set 1 goal for myself…hit 5K subscribers on Youtube in 2023. Little did I know I would accomplish so much more than that.

2023 was probably the most successful year of my life & I can honestly say that with a smile on my face. I bought my first house & shop, flew to the other side of the world to tour France & Italy (I can now say I’ve been to the top of the Eiffel Tower), started a website for SomethingCool co, officially registered my business, went to my first ever racing event (and got 1st place), beat the piss out of a 500hp Subaru that somehow has still not blown up (that’s an accomplishment on it’s own), ran back to back 11s passes in the Subaru AGAIN, Got 90% finished building a turbo Honda, finished the beater WRX build & sold it, financed my first car & paid it off in 6 months (then sold it because new cars are boring), bought a truck (for future plans) & bought another winter beater to fix up because apparently I can never have too many projects on the go. After all the stress & tight timelines I put myself under throughout the year, I always take New Years as a time to reflect. Was it worth it? Hell Yeah. Was it easy? Hell no. Does my family enjoy the fact that I run off 3 hours of sleep almost every night trying to pump out videos? Nope, they definitely do not…but I know they will always support me, just like the rest of you guys have this year.

Thank you guys so much for following me along this crazy journey. I have no idea where I’m gonna be a year from now, because a year ago I had no idea I would be here. Let’s just keep enjoying the process. :)

What a trip…… but I’m back boys.

For those of you asking about the turbo civic build, I promise you the videos are coming & that thing WILL RUN this summer.

We also have some special parts to install on the STI! Not sure if I’m going to get the STI knocked out first, or get started on the civic right away but either way I’m just excited to be back 🙃

Even though I’m excited to get back to work on the cars, I wanna take you guys with me on a trip of a lifetime. Here is a couple sneak peek photos :) but there will be a very cool “trip to Europe” video coming soon! (For those of you that care) Otherwise…..be patient, car videos will be back soon👍🏼

If you’re reading this, thanks for sticking around for the past month while I’ve been gone ❤️

Well 2022….You were a wild ride

2022 was my first full year on YouTube & I can honestly say I had a f**kn blast! Even though this channel is seeing very slow & consistent growth, I feel like I learned so much & broke out of so many of my comfort zones this year.

I started my own brand called Something Cool with a promise to myself to do something cool every single day for the rest of my life. In 2023 I fully plan on launching a website so you guys can get your own hoodies & whatever else we decide to make!

In 2022 I feel like I achieved my childhood dream. I got my license as an automotive mechanic, officially built an 11 second 500hp Subaru, started my own brand, hit 1000 subscribers on YouTube, gained over 300k views on my channel & have never had more fun in my life.

I just wanted to thank you guys for all the support you show on this channel. Your comments keep me motivated to pump out as many videos as I can.

I’m not big on New Year’s resolutions, but I am big on setting goals & always trying to better myself over time.

So let’s set a goal to hit 5k subscribers in 2023. I think we can do it boys 🤙🏼

Happy New Year to all of you & I hope you achieve all your goals in 2023 🎉 #MyYearOnYoutube
