New member: street performer, living out of my car

[Yumms]

Hi! Just wanted to introduce myself. 'Yumms' here. Im currently living out of my car, on a tour of the United States, jumping around from place to place- finding areas that are conducive to street performing, following decent weather etc.

This lifestyle is getting really, really tiring. I LOVE performing, but I dont love needing to do it to survive. This trip Im on now, came about partially because its been a dream of mine to do- to see if I could do it, and also, because of some crappy circumstances that sort of pushed me into it. Funny how life works sometimes.

All I know, my body is getting too old to be living like this. Im tired most of the time, and its rough on my mental health. Not to mention some of these places I need to live at to perform- currently in New Orleans- things are getting downright dangerous. Dealing with turf wars, junkies, people trying to rob me etc. I enjoy what Im doing, but Ive just about had enough of the drama.

When I embarked on my trip, I got a few books on tape to put on my ipod- 'Millionaire Fastlane ' was one of them. I tell you, Ive always had issues holding and keeping a regular 9 to 5. Im just not built for that form of slavery. Now that this 'honeypot'- performing- is starting to wear on me. Im feeling a strong call to set down, find some real PURPOSE and to create something for myself. I realize after listening to MF a few times, the fastlane is calling to me. I think Ive always known, even when I was young- that the current slowlane paradigm just isnt right for me. I know this is going to take some serious work, along with some real soul searching and rearrangement of my inner world. I look forward to learning even more here, from you guys!- and gals!...
