Why I do what I do.

Hey,
So I know a lot of you know me but some of you are new to the Rex Felixx experience.

Here are a few things about me.

1.I have two eyes,

2.Anose

3. Love to sing, dance , and play guitar….

Ok for real though.

4. I do love eating spaghettios and edamame.

OK seriously, though….

I grew up in Buffalo, NY and have always been a goofy oddball person who loved to make people laugh. I come from a long history of artists who inspired me daily, to use that imagination.
Now, all grown up (37) and having too many gray hairs to count, I decided to continue this journey of assisting the world in understanding they can use imagination every single day and not be a potato too mature for play.
We don’t have to work a job we hate and never think about anything else. Can you imagine if you were 25 years of age, and found the (perfect) job and never thought about anything else except that?

Sad. ( Like ice cream melted in the sun before eating it sad.)

Rex Felixx has always been apart of me, and I am apart of it. The whole purpose of it is to show the world through my writings, drawings, and personality, that we can be true to our own self. Who cares what other people may chatter when we are doing something we love. King Happy (Rex Felixx) is all about inspiring people who feel down on their luck, who are stuck, or just bored with life. Everyday I wake up hoping to bring a smile to someone’s day, or a creative spark in a poem I write.

One little spark…

to get that imagination growing again!

You want to bake? Cool go bake it.
You love to sing? Great go and do open mic
You like doing marathons? Amazing go and run (I’m tired thinking about 26 miles)

Please if you can’t remember anything I write in this post, remember this

YOU ARE AWESOME!!!
STOP BEING SHY ABOUT HOW AWESOME YOU ARE!!

Get out there and start living, stop ignoring that little voice inside your heart telling you to dream.

Cheers,

Rex Felixx

P.S. I want spaghettios

Dreaming

When did we become so old that we forgot how to dream?

When did we become so cynical that we are so mean?

I’m not that old (36, don’t let the grays fool you) But I notice that every year we get older it seems that we become mad at the life we created. A lot of us stop focusing on the positives in life and continuing to pursue our dreams. We then decide its feels great to become cynical and dull. If anyone tries to achieve a dream , we look at them and say…“Meh.” It’s a cancer that is ruining our lives. It is so easy to mock and laugh at people grinding for their dream. It is also much easier to look at others than to look in the mirror and say “Wow, I want to become something better. I want to be trying to live my life to the fullest.”

We can all achieve an awesome life.

We can all try to be a better person.

We can all decide today that we want to pursue an outlandish idea!

Don’t restrict yourself to never trying!

Go out and be awesome!!!!!!!

Peace out,

Rex Felixx

Waking up

There are some days where I don’t feel like getting out of bed.
I am like sloth all rolled up like a California sushi roll.
There some days where I jump out of bed and want to hit the grounding running. I want to accomplish everything all in one day. I’m not sure why some days feel so different but I want to have that positive feeling of waking up and completing my goals all the time.

I think planning is important. You get to decide what you want to accomplish.
It’s so much easier laying out gym clothes and planning my workout than rushing in the morning trying to find my sneakers.

Waking up is key to having a great day. I encourage everyone to plan tomorrow, today.
before going to bed think of a few goals that you want to accomplish.
Try it out. I can’t be the only person who enjoys waking up with that feeling of excitement. That feeling of accomplishment.
What do you have to lose? Another day of slothfulness and resentment?

Cheers,

Rex Felixx

End of a Season

Another Summer season gone, and another Fall season begins. I don’t know about you but this year has flown by so quickly. I remember June starting and I’m thinking to myself, “ Man I can’t wait to do all the cool Summer stuff.” It was a very eventful season but I still wanted to do more. There was so much to do yet I ran out of time. The more I look back on the past few months, the more I realize I waste a lot of time thinking of what to do, instead of just doing it. “It be fun to do whitewater rafting, or a trip to Vermont would be cool.”

The years seem to move very quickly and soon enough I’ll be looking in the mirror being more gray than I am now. (if that is even possible.) Instead of wondering what to do, I am going to start pursuing it and not waiting to do it. One season is over but we still have 2 more left this year to enjoy, and fulfill those goals.

I’ll leave you with a quote from one of my favorite films “ Do you want to become an old man, filled with regret, waiting to die alone?” - Inception

Go out and enjoy all that you can while we still can.


Cheers,
Rex Felixx

Lightbulbs...

Man with the ideas

do something today

don’t delay

or stray away

from doing something with it

Ideas come and go so quickly for people. In an instant you can have a million dollar idea pop in your head and then five minutes later… poof… gone. Ideas and dreams are great to have, but if they only stay as dreams or ideas, it is a waste of time. I bet if you asked your closest friends, every one of them will tell you 20 different ideas that are cool and that would be awesome to do. “ I have this idea to write a book.”

“ I have this idea to open up a bar..”

They are always awesome great dreams. The only problem is that we come up with these ideas and never pursue them.

Next time you have a cool idea write it down and then decide if it’s something worth pursing. If it is, then do it. Stop overthinking or analyzing and wondering about it. A year from now you will be so excited and happy you pursued it.

Keep dreaming

Keep pursuing your dreams

Never give up.

Cheers,

Rex Felixx

eh... I'll do it tomorrow.

I want to live today.

I want to enjoy today.

I want to go after my dreams

and not wait until “someday”.

I can be the worst at procrastinating at a lot of things. Over this past year,I discovered that going after your dream is the most important thing you can ever do. I have always put off doing my dream for years, saying eventually I will get around to it. I’ll write that book someday. I will make a t-shirt someday. Over the past year I have made leaps and bounds in striving to live a fulfilled life and it has been wonderful. Instead of dreading every day, and just going through the motions; I get to be excited to do what I love all the time. My brain is in nonstop creative state allowing me to create content that I love. Don’t hesitate in pursuing your dream. We only have a certain amount of time left on this giant orb called Earth. Why not do something you enjoy, and then do it again and repeat until your dream comes true. No more lackluster living , get out and be AMAZING!!!

““I hope we never lose sight of one thing—that it was all started by a mouse.”- Walt Disney

Don’t feel silly for wanting to live the best life ever. Others may not understand what you are going after or be confused as to why you are going after it. That is okay. This is your dream not theirs.

Keep being awesome everybody.

Cheers,

Rex Felixx
