My name is Mike Brady and this is my story.  I'm a dad, husband, and 3 time failed entrepreneur.    

I'm also a lifelong musician, entertainer, and storyteller.  In the last 2 years I've learned to lean into my passions to find fulfillment and uncover what I believe God is calling me to do with my life. 

 I hope by sharing my stories and struggles, you can be inspired, entertained, or maybe event educated by me!   

 Today I am talking through my songwriting and content strategy after completing my first week of the self created- 90 Day "Focused Creator" Challenge- what I've learned, what's working, and what's not working that I need to adjust.

 Here's the breakdown of my "FOCUSED CREATOR" 90 Day Challenge 

Daily 1 hour writing  1 gallon water 1 hour exercise 4 reels 4 TikTok’s  4 YouTube Shorts 3 Stories  

Weekly 1 YouTube video 1 live (on YT or IG) 1 complete song demo 1 podcast episode 3 hikes 

Monthly 1 mastered track  

Diet Protein shake daily  Greens daily Magnesium daily Whole fruits/ veggies Meats,  (Protein, fats, carbs)  

Restrictions  -no alcohol -no sugar -no refined carbs -no deep fried foods -no processed food  

I'm using the app "Done" app https://thedoneapp.com/ to track the challenge.  It allowed me to custom build the tasks in the challenge and specify whether they are daily, weekly, or monthly tasks.  It's perfect so far! The app also is part of a bigger bundle that is a complete self care toolkit.  I'm really happy with its user friendliness and interface.    

My songwriting is the first hour of my day when I wake up.  I am using the iPhone "Notes" app in a subfolder I created called "Lyrics"- easy to track and use from both my laptop, and phone.  I'm also using my iPhone 13 Pro Max to take 4K 60fps video (that I can also use for social) to record the song ideas, in addition to using the voice memos app.
