It is interesting to see how things often come full circle when least expected. During many of the hypes of the Summer of 2021 for the Crypto markets, NFTs were lifting off across the board as Blockchain and Metaverse started to become a common word among futurists and investors. I started to unite my worlds in both professional and entrepreneurial as I continued to watch for opportunities. As part of my diligence, many influencers started coming into the scene which have started to crossover as well.

One of them was Gary Vee which has always look towards the future to catch trends and forge a path for its growth. His impact in social media has been incredible to experience. One of the few authors that I have always followed has been Gary as his books are uniquely written and easy to read. As an introvert, I feel that he has an opposing but adjustable way to attract discussion with his words. Since I had been following him for some time, I randomly joined a quick stream one night while I was getting ready to sleep. Ironically, his passion and talk surrounding NFT kept me up as it has been an area where I had not immersed myself except for my time in Splinterlands which is also more unique than the general NFT space. He launched preorders of his book that night and offered a special item for buying 12 or more. While he did not specify, I felt it would be a potential way to tiptoe into the NFT space. I immediately preordered 12 as I thought it would be a good investments no matter what. The holidays were approaching so thought it would be cool to read and enjoy while also spreading the passion of Gary to friends and family. Despite some delays, I was not disappointed from the book as it was a quick and impactful read during the Holidays. It has truly inspired me to continue the path of combining my two worlds in the short term as I find my place in this new world.
