Hi, I'm Bill Snodgrass, and in this SNAPlife episode we're gonna talk about the
difference between having things and how you use the things that you have. There's
a big difference and that's what we're talking about in this in this episode
I'm going to look at this concept in three areas three areas where what you
have and how you use it make a huge huge difference so the first one is there he
is is tools and resources and gizmos
gadgets software having tools having gadgets and all of that sort of stuff
we're talking about how that compares to how you use it
a lot of people act like having things makes them somehow better to perform
having the right you know obvious the example would be camera gear and
microphones and equipment and lenses but just because you have good equipment
doesn't mean you're good at using it having the best microphone in the world
doesn't make your audio quality good if you don't know where to put that
microphone I have a set of really nice craftsman wrenches that does not make me
a good mechanic having tools and software and not knowing how to use it
just means you have good tools and software it doesn't mean that you get
the job done any better so the temptation is to assume that if you have
talent the outcome is automatically going to be good that's not always true
because there are a lot of people with talent who won't use their talent rather
than using their talent to accomplish something they they just don't they do
something else they're not comfortable speaking to groups even though they're
good at it they're not using the talent that they have to do the best they can
because they're for some reason to have decided to hide that talent away the
last thing I want to talk about in return regards of what you have and how
you use it now this might be the one that's most significant I want to talk
about your resources and my resources I'm going to
talking about your financial resources and your relationship resources now you
can use what you have to make things better for the people around you to see
that better things are done or you can keep it all for yourself now this might
be one of those places where it's the biggest difference between what you have
and what you do with it you can look it at people who have celebrity status who
spend a million dollars on an aquarium while there's there's people in their
old neighborhood who are going hungry
it's not what you have it's how you use it it's not your tools it's not your
talents it's not your resources that makes the difference the thing that's
going to make the world different is how you use what you have I'm Bill Cyrus

greatest support system you know people are stair doing you know you have
friends you have family that wants to see you progressed and wants to see you
push forward but you also have friends that don't want to see you succeed and
you have family probably think the same way other hand it's okay it's okay you

Have a zip of cappucino my friends, brothers and lovely sisters :)
Homemade - I made this baby myself
Tada ~~~. Let's cerebrate it with my one and only
Godiva chocolate cheesecake with rich and creamy whipping cream yummmm
Have you tried it before ? I got it from the famous cheese cake factory :)
So so so so good , I can gladly say that this is my fav cheesecake EVER
Let's dig in for that soft sound eating , eh ?
ar ,... Did you hear it ? :) It got me - relaxing , oddly
And adding a bit of whipping cream wouldn't hurt , right ? .... haha
nom nom nom nom
Desserts really make me happy. Though, I know it's not the healthiest thing
to put in our mouth or my body :) but - good for my mental health , hahah
... so let's get into the topic - today yes ?
Shookbang Drama .....
...... ........ ....... Jeffree , ... Did I gt you excited ? , LOL .. just kidding ~
Not that topic, .... it's my 100th subscribers -- whooo hooooo
I'm a bit a little over that now - -- say what ?? ----
I need to scream real quick ..
--- aggggghhhhhhhhh ...... whoooooooo hoooooooooooooooooooo
I'm so happy guys - I want all of you to write down / comment below
ALL OF YOU ... I'm calling all in - to let me know when did you join in ?
I promise - one day when I have enough money I will ......
I "WILL" give each and everyone of you a gift , that's a contract !
because you're my first born 150th I LOVE YOU to the Mars and BACK
yup , the Mars / not the Moon, baby. Because...... It's 2019 NOW ~
And, the moon is in '60s ERA
If Neil Armstrong still alive , he'd be almost 100 years old. Wow
.... Gosh .. we're not making any progress, are we ?
I'm hoping we can reach the Mars in 10 years - that would be so amazingggg
back to the topic .... lol......
I would be so happy to just have enough people to get this youtube channel going,
just enough - I don't really care for being known or famous - really
On the flip side, I rather be invisible and keep making amazing sounds
creating amazing motion pictures and maybe hopefully
be able to delivery some meaningful message through these text / captions
If anybody ever read it, ..... by the way , any one read this ? ... LOL ...
I just having fun typing this while thinking I'm talking directly to you
It's ok if you're not, as long as it doesn't annoy you, if it does - lmk, k ? :)
I'll stop making it. -- IDK --- as much as I have fun doing this ,
I also want u to enjoy it too, u know :) I do care
Oh, today I think I really have a cool message to share - actually
would you like to know " How to eat everything and not get fat ? "
First of all, I have to tell you that everybody is different , what works for me
Might not work for you. and I'm not a Dr. so healthy or not - you decide
Ready ? ..... My method ..... is you can eat everything - dessert / ice cream / steak
what ever you like , EVERYTHING ... in a normal portion ... not too crazy
For once a day or you can call it intermitten diet - It works
at least for me, and I didn't even know it was a kind of diet - I first , did it 3 years ago
3 years ago, .......... when it's not that popular -
I'll tell you how It's So EASY - SO EASY - if I can do it you can too :)
to me it's not even an extreme or call a diet at all.
I just literrally started off with " I only eat when I'm hungry "
and I gradually ( without knowing ) trained my body to hungry once a day
.... and here's how I did it ....
ready ? I usually don't care for breakfast ... that quite easy right ?
Most of us, .. we skip breakfast , so that's easy
Come lunch time , I eat a lot , like a man - I sure can eat if you know me.
I eat dessert , whatever I want - pizza , burger , pork belly , anything I want
and I don't usually snack because I am usually full after that much food
then comes dinner ... I first started off with being "SUPER LAZY"
LOL , you know ? ......... it's a lot of work - to cook
or even to get a takeout , I still have to drive or bike to pick it up
Delivery ? I'm too cheap for that - I feel bad if I don't tip. So, .....I would tip them 25% , it is. pretty pricy - really
then all of that I still have to clean the dishes ...
eating out ? that 's still have to get dress and go somewhere , right ?
so..... what I do ?
I just say " screw everythign else - I rather go to bed " .... LOL
and I honestly did that for about 3 weeks until my body get used to
My body just tell me when to eat, and at night ?
I 'm not hungry - period..
so many benefits to this too
1. I maintain my weight without even have to try
2. I have more time to do any other things .....think about it .....
how many hours do I gain if I don't spend my time eating breakfast/dinner ?
that means I got more hours of sleep .... ohhh yeahhhh
3. I save $$$ , right ? and I can get so much better food with the same budget
Three blah blah blah meals become one really good meal , ha ha ha !! see ?
4. I've heard it's healthy for you - that's I've learned recently - but what I know is that
Buddist Monks have been doing this for thoudsand of years
and they are healthy , pretty healthy alright ?
.... so ...........
that's my trick, you just have to be lazy at night
, you'll be able to do this :). #OMYLazyDiet
let me know if you decide to do it , I can help you out
OMG ... If you ever do it, do let me know tag me , I will be there for you
and it's also healthy to allow yourself to be lazy .... right ?
During the day life is already hectic as it is , come night time --
Why not just be lazy and go to bed. ... SIMPLE !!!
I challenge you, give yourself only 3 weeks 21 days - that's all you need
No surgery needed... all you have to do is disclipline
Have you heard.. Self-disclipline is self-love
love yourself , tell yourself you are enough
tell yourself you are exactly where you are in life
Your body is stronger and more capable than you think
..and at the end of they day ... it's your body .....
that's you , your asset , not money , nothing materialistic
right ? .....
wow,,,, OMY is going deep today .... LOL
My point is if I could encourage at least one person
then my life mission of the day is accomplish ! yay
to take care of themself , take care of their body
to me... watching others eating is helping ...
It's almost I feel like I eat same food as they're eating
But I don't have to do all the work , right ?
Genius ...sssssss haha. :)
OOPs, I am almost almost done
Stay tuned , subscribe , share , click that bell
Better videos are on the way ..
Stay Cool, Stay clam, Stay positive ---- NAMASTE -----

That Sounds Great - A Really Short English Lesson with Subtitles - Duration: 0:49.
So in English there's a number of ways to tell someone that you like their idea.
One of those ways is to say, "That sounds great!"
So you might have a friend who says to you, "Let's go out and see a movie tonight."
And if you want to go see a movie with them you could respond by saying, "That sounds
great!"
I have an idea for you guys to help you learn your English and that's this: You should watch
this video two times today and then you should watch it one more time tomorrow.
When you watch something more than once it really helps to reinforce what you have learned.
So you could respond to that idea by saying, "That sounds great!"

Tattoo Do's and Don'ts - Duration: 12:16.
Welcome back to the Gentleman's Gazette!
Today's video is all about tattoos; we discuss ten dos and don'ts, whether it's worth to
get one, the history about tattoos, new ink technology that makes it easier to remove
tattoos and anything else you want to know so you end up with something that you don't
regret down the line.
It's always good to make some considerations before you get inked yourself.
Depending on your location and culture, tattoos can be perceived as anything from a mark of
high status all the way to a symbol of a criminal.
Because of that, it makes sense to consider a few things before getting inked yourself.
Also, if you have tattoos or you're considering getting one and you've talked about with friends,
you've probably gotten a lot of advice, often unsolicited no matter if you asked for it
or not.
At the end of the day, the big question is, should you get a tattoo or not?
And while we can't answer that question for you, we can definitely provide you with some
insights that help you reach a conclusion that makes sense for you.
So first, let's briefly look into the historical aspects of tattoos.
Archaeological evidence suggests that tattoos have pretty much been around since the dawn
of mankind.
As such, it's one of the oldest forms of personal style that exists and a lot older than clothes,
for example.
Historically, tattoos had three principal meanings.
One was a simple decoration.
Two was an indication of social status and three as kind of a talisman because tattoos
were supposed to have healing properties and were good for the body and soul.
The culture that is probably most widely associated with tattoos is the Maori of Polynesia.
In fact, the word tattoo originates from a Maori word "tatau" which means as much as
to strike.
Maori culture incorporates several rituals and rites of passage, especially for young
men, that all evolved around tattoos.
The Maori also practice a related art form which is called Ta Moko which includes carving
of the skin which leaves a slight texture once it's healed.
You've probably heard of tattoos being very popular among sailors and was in fact, a Maori
influence that led to that popularity among them.
Now for sailors, tattoos have very specific meanings.
A turtle was a sign of having crossed the equator whereas an anchor would mean that
you crossed the Atlantic and so forth.
Historically, sailors often had a reputation for being rough around the edges and sometimes
even violent.
The popularity of tattoos with seafarers secured a societal stigma around tattoos being only
for people at the fringes of society.
In fact it remained outlawed until the mid 20th century.
Of course, it was directly connected to the popularity of tattoos with Yakuza which was
Japan's organized crime syndicate.
While tattooing has surged in popularity in Europe and in the US, particularly with Millennials,
there others oftentimes older people in society who still associate a certain taboo with tattoos
and associate it with prison life or gang culture.
That being said, with more and more people having at least one tattoo, that stigma is
slowly but surely fading.
In fact, 40% of Millennials in the US today have at least one tattoo.
So what are the things to keep in mind before you get a tattoo?
Ultimately, no matter if you like it or not or how well it's done, people will always
see it and judge you for it.
As I said many times before, in an ideal world, people shouldn't judge you by your outward
appearance but they subconsciously do, there's nothing you can do about that.
On a more practical note, consider exactly where you want to place your tattoo because
chances are that there might come a time, even if you think to the contrary right now,
where you want to hide your tattoo.
Just think about meeting the conservative parents of your significant other for the
first time or maybe at a job interview at a white-collar law firm.
We believe that as a gentleman of classic style, you should probably stay clear of tattoos
on your hands, your neck area, or your face because it's easily visible most of the time.
No matter how much you like the tattoo design right now, there's always a potential for
regret and to learn more about that firsthand please check out these videos here from Aaron
Marino over at alpha M. He had tattoos that he regretted and he had them removed.
Overall, if you decide to get a tattoo, I think it's really great if there's a story
behind it and some meaning.
So rather than picking something out from a menu, come up with something that really
means something to you whether it's your children or deceased sibling and create a tattoo that
speaks to you in a way that you can look at it for years to come without changing your
mind.
Of course, if the desired tattoo bears a resemblance or it signifies a belonging to a certain group
such as a military unit, you definitely talk to your peers first whether it's okay to do
so because you never want to give off the impression as being part of something that
you're actually not.
Now once you've decided on the design, it's best to keep the design with you for six months
to a year and if after that time period you still like it and you still want it, it's
probably time to get a tattoo and you won't change your mind about it anytime soon.
In other words, if you're in a hurry to get a tattoo, you're likely not in the right mindset
to get it at this point in time.
That being said, there have been advancements in the ink technology in recent years.
Some New York University students came up with ink that actually can fade automatically
after I think three months, six months, and a year.
Alternatively, the tattoo can also be removed with a special solution by your local tattoo
artist and no lasering is necessary.
On that note, lasering away a tattoo doesn't always work 100% so it pays to really
think about it and not just rely on being able to get rid of it after the fact.
Alright now that you decided on the design, what should you expect?
First of all, there should be a good vibe between the tattoo artist and you so everything
is clear and there's a good level of communication.
First, the artist will apply a stencil to make sure you have the size as well as the
angle exactly right.
The first needle work will be the outline which is done with a loaded tattoo gun and
a liner needle.
Because this liner needle covers the smallest surface amount, you will likely have the most
pain at this stage of your tattoo process.
After the artist is done with the liner needle, he'll probably rinse your tattoo area and
will then use broader needles to add shades to your tattoo.
Once the tattoo is completely inked, it will be soaked and washed and you'll get a sterile
bandage on top of it.
Definitely expect some slight bleeding during and after the process.
Before settling on a tattoo studio, I suggest to read some reviews, maybe talk to friends
with a good experience, and also read up on the latest technology of inks and the tattooing
process because there are these modern inks and you can learn more about that in our full
fledge guide on a website here.
Alright, now it's time for the tattoos dos and don'ts.
One, study up on your design and really think about what you want, get inspired by different
tattoos so you end up with something you truly love.
Two, do go to a clean reputable tattoo parlor, otherwise, you may end up with something that
looks really really terrible.
It goes without saying that it should have several sanitary measures to guarantee safe
procedures.
For example, that means the artist should wear gloves
and the needles should be sanitary and taken out of the package in front of the customer.
Furthermore, different artists have different areas of tattoo expertise and you should try
to find a perfect match for your design.
Three, do drink plenty of water the night before you get a tattoo because you don't
want your skin to reject the ink because you're dehydrated.
Four, do try to remain as still as possible in the chair, otherwise, the artist might
get frustrated and it will hurt you more.
Do expect your tattoo to cost anywhere from five hundred to a thousand dollars for a small
one and of course, a lot more for bigger all body tattoos.
Remember, you're essentially hiring an artist to create a piece of art and you shouldn't
try to lowball him and instead give him a good tip.
A common phrase in the industry states " Good tattoos aren't cheap and cheap tattoos
aren't good".
Because your body's immune system naturally attacks the tattoo, it will fade over time
and so you may have to go in for touch-ups and because of that, it pays to have that
good long-term relationship which is helped by tips.
Six, do follow the aftercare instructions to the tee, otherwise, you may end up with
a disfigured tattoo or even worse, an infection.
The exact healing time can vary from person to person but in general, it takes about 2
weeks.
You should definitely wait that long before you expose a tattoo to sun, salt water, or
other abrasive elements.
What about the tattoo don'ts?
Well, first of all, don't put a tattoo on your neck, your hands, or your face.
That way, it'll always be easy for you to look professional, you can have business wear
and you can go about your own business without people bugging you about your tattoo.
Secondly, don't tattoo potentially sensitive areas, you know what I mean!
Don't tattoo your foot soles!
Three, don't get a tattoo under the influence of alcohol other drugs or peer pressure.
It's simply not worth it.
Also, think about it this way, just like nobody should be able to talk you out of getting
a tattoo, nobody should be able to talk you into it.
It's your decision and your decision alone.
Four, don't get a tattoo to impress people to get a certain standing or to be perceived
as a badass or maybe even to commemorate a relationship.
Why?
According to a 2017 study from Poland, tattoos don't make you any more or less attractive
to women in general.
While some women do consider men with tattoos to be healthier and more masculine, that same
group of women also thinks that those people are not as nurturing in a relationship or
partnership.
Getting a tattoo for your romantic partner may be tricky because the relationship may
end but a tattoo will remain.
Of course, if you want to tattoo with your children's names, that's different because
they will always remain your children.
So in conclusion, tattoos are one of the oldest art forms of personal self-expression in terms
of style and you should choose them wisely so they reflect your personal style, don't
let others or substances pressure you into it or out of it and it's important for you
to do your homework so you end up with something that you're proud of.

In today's video I'm wearing a rather casual combination of a dress shirt which covers
off my big ass tattoo on my back just kidding I don't have any tattoos at this point I am
wearing a pair of dark blue denim jeans that are just slightly tapered because I wear them
with boots and I find that too much of a taper just doesn't look good if I wear boots my
socks are shadow striped in navy and yellow so they pick up the color of the jeans but
they contrast the brown jodhpur boots and to learn more about jodhpurs head over here.
