I'm Jeff Vincent and I like to do hoodrat things with my friends.

The Scary Basement is my personal spot for the music, art, photography, film, friends, inspirations, business ideas, inventions & innovations that flow through and around my head.

My favorite things in life are laughter, big smiles, learning new things, challenging the norms, salmon pants, doing what makes me happy, new perspectives, lessons for life, skiing, new adventures, and loved ones.
Enjoy.

just read The Cult of Done Manifesto.  It’s awesome, check it out:

The Cult of Done Manifesto

   1. There are three states of being. Not knowing, action and completion.
   2. Accept that everything is a draft. It helps to get it done.
   3. There is no editing stage.
   4. Pretending you know what you’re doing is almost the same as knowing what you are doing, so just accept that you know what you’re doing even if you don’t and do it.
   5. Banish procrastination. If you wait more than a week to get an idea done, abandon it.
   6. The point of being done is not to finish but to get other things done.
   7. Once you’re done you can throw it away.
   8. Laugh at perfection. It’s boring and keeps you from being done.
   9. People without dirty hands are wrong. Doing something makes you right.
  10. Failure counts as done. So do mistakes.
  11. Destruction is a variant of done.
  12. If you have an idea and publish it on the internet, that counts as a ghost of done.
  13. Done is the engine of more.

I really want to get prints of this image, get them for yourself here at imagekind
