Our Dreamit Application Has Been Submitted

The team and I are continuing to pursue getting into an accelerator. As we all know, how much this could help the development of Passdown. Here in the USA there are accelerators galore. We are super lucky. We will be even luckier if we get into one. Or maybe I should say, humanity will be luckier. As our app is going to help people in a way, they might not notice for sixty years. 


Don't get me wrong, our app will be every bit as wonderful and useful for people to use on a daily basis right now, but in the long term, well, it's sort of going to be a big surprise. Interestingly surprise might not be the word I'm looking for. It's just the word that comes to mind right now. 

What could possible happen in sixty years from now? Something I can see, but most people won't. My team may not even see it. It's only because I have spent a ton of time inside the fantasy of Passdown. It's what entrepreneurs do. Think about the idea and everything good and everything bad about it. All the what if's, and of course all the, but someone else is doing something similar, or the constant questions as to how can you possible do that, being the legal issues are immense! 

That's when the entrepreneurs mind goes to work. Intense thinking about everything possible and not possible. Of course I know, there are a ton of things that my mind has not thought of. That's why I keep it OPEN. 


It's a dreadful waiting period every time your team hits submit. You wait for the day they will tell you, you made it to the next level, or you are out, done, toast, at least for this session. : - /

The worst part for me is the video submission. It's not an easy thing to make a video of yourself speaking and remember all the answers to the questions they ask. You can ramble on, or get stuck and have to make a retake. I've done it. I think I made forty cuts for my part on the Dreamit app. I would watch them and ask myself "What the hell is wrong with my head?" It bobs all over the place, and my eyeballs look like I'm on crack! It super frustrating watching myself on film. Yep, I'm critical, and I wonder, do I really look like this to others in real life? That's probably the reason I have few friends. I'm a freaking freakoid. 

I suppose it all goes to the fact that most of us do not like to hear ourselves on tape speaking, and we also do not like to see ourselves on film for the same reason. It's super odd looking at yourself.
