My Intention
by Ari Koinuma on Sep.22, 2008, under Announcements, Entrepreneurship
So, here I am. My name is Ari Koinuma. Welcome to my world.
This is what I am here to do:
- To realize my potential.
- To help others do the same.
To accomplish #1, I had to discover who I am. And from who I am, I had to design a vision that encompassed and incorporated as much of what I am as possible.
And I have formed that vision. Here it is:
—
I am building an interdisciplinary content-production and mentoring enterprise.
I have two types of content to offer: music and writing.
For the first three years of my operation, I will write, record and release 40 songs a year.
The songs will range from metal and progressive rock to gentle acoustic folk to children’s music. The consistency, originality, diversity, and prolific pacing of my music-making is what makes me noteworthy and valuable as a musician.
Similarly, I will write 200 posts per year on a range of subjects spanning from songwriting to promotion to entrepreneurship to self improvement. By covering this range of subjects, I can assist readers at all stages of development: personal->artistic->entrepreneurial.
I will also offer mentoring or create user-self-mentoring communities on a similar range of subjects as my blogs.
As the business grows, I will build a team of content creators and mentors, so I can focus on creating the content only I can produce, and expand our operations into live concerts and mentoring programs.

How and when am I going to start this venture?
I don’t know, but soon.
The only remaining key to the puzzle is how to create a situation where I can devote my full effort into this without jeopardizing my responsibility to provide for my family. The full-time commitment is essential, as the prolific pace of production is a key ingredient in my positioning. If I released one 12-song album a year and wrote 50 blog posts, I cannot stand out.
Even though I don’t know how I will start doing this, I do remain optimistic, as I can think of several scenarios of how to make this happen.
So — enablers, positive thinkers, encouragers, shower me with your affirmations. I’m going to need a lot of help in pursuing these big dreams. Naysayers, well-intentioned realists, and devil’s advocates, stay out of my way. Whatever lessons I need to learn, I will learn on my own, without your assistance.
