			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey friends &#8211; a new blog is in the works. I&#8217;m going to focus on a broader scope of topics. If you know me well, you probably know how many things I work on.  </p>
<p>I am feverishly writing my third album and thanks to life, I have a lot to write about. </p>
<p>I&#8217;m also working hard on the digital marketing front.  There are lots of innovations happening and I want to talk a little more about that stuff in detail. </p>
<p>more to come. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Despite my better judgment, I&#8217;m doing a very introspective post.  It could be because I&#8217;m up late thinking about work.  It&#8217;s more likely that something is bugging me.  &#8216;This will surely be one of those posts I contemplate deleting after it&#8217;s published but you have to tell the truth to get the truth so here it goes.</p>
<p><span style="color: #000080;"><span style="color: #000000;">I am a</span><strong> marketer</strong></span>, and a pretty serious one.  <span style="color: #800000;"><span style="color: #000000;">I am a </span><strong>writer</strong></span>.  I emphasize getting a point across &#8211; one on one or in a group.  <span style="color: #800080;"><span style="color: #000000;">I am a</span></span><strong><span style="color: #800080;"> speaker</span></strong>.  Clearly I like to talk people and I&#8217;m pretty good at it.</p>
<p>I am a <span style="color: #003300;"><strong>singer </strong></span>and a <strong><span style="color: #003300;">songwriter</span></strong>.  I&#8217;ve released two albums and am finally back in the studio working on the third.  My albums have digital distribution and can be found online at iTunes, Napster, Amazon, and other marketplaces.  Yeah Madia does music and Madia [a.k.a. logan] does marketing.</p>
<p>I always thought people should pick something, and get good at it.  It wasn&#8217;t because I didn&#8217;t think people could be good at multiple things.  I did and I do!  I think that when we summarize people in our head, we can only fit one thing.  As people we define other people in a very small box.  I think most mental summaries are a word or two.   Mother.  Musician.  Marketer.  Writer.</p>
<p>We define people by the role we know them to play or the role that is most prominent &#8211; and because of that, I conformed to the idea that I have to be one thing now that I&#8217;m a grown up and can no longer pass for a college student.  (maybe a grad student&#8230;)  People told me I had to pick something.</p>
<p>So I&#8217;m coming out to multiple groups that I have worked very hard to keep separate.  Why?</p>
<ul>
<li>It&#8217;s bound to happen.</li>
<li>I might as well control the message. (inner marketer)</li>
<li>If we&#8217;re friends you&#8217;ll hopefully make my box a lil bigger.</li>
<li>If we&#8217;re not friends, maybe you&#8217;ll resist putting others in a box.</li>
</ul>
<p>If you&#8217;re a person of multiple talents, I think letting the walls down is good.  It shows you have multiple strengths and sometimes unique insights as a result of your multiple perspectives.  They told me to pick something&#8230; but I&#8217;m ignoring that advice.</p>
