Nateo Baggins of Seattle on Life, Lessons & Legacy

Nateo Baggins shared their story and experiences with us recently and you can find our conversation below.

Nateo, it’s always a pleasure to learn from you and your journey. Let’s start with a bit of a warmup: When was the last time you felt true joy?
I feel joy every day when I wake up, when I take a hot bath, when I cook up my chef’s special chicken broccoli Alfredo pasta, when I’m going to the movies as an AMC A-Lister, when I’m perusing the used selection at the record store, when I’m outside soaking up the sun, when I’m drinking water, when I’m drinking beer, when I’m drinking whiskey.

There are opportunities to experience true joy in every action you take. It’s a matter of opening your eyes, ears, mouth, and nose, allowing life to inject itself into your veins.

Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
My name is Nateo Baggins, and my brand is myself. I exude myself in every waking moment available to me, which is 24 hours a day. Even in dreams, I’m doing wonderful, unspeakable things that only my mind and imagination can produce. There is not a single minute that passes me by that I waste, life is precious and without it you and I would have nothing at all

Great, so let’s dive into your journey a bit more. What did you believe about yourself as a child that you no longer believe?
Nothing. I have never held a disbelief that I allowed to retroactively bend to existence’s will. People may try to tell you how to think, believe, and live your own life. This is a fallacy, a temptation offered by demons. You must not believe them.

Do not drink the radioactive water handed to you. Brew your own wine of life from your own grapes. It tastes much better that way.

When you were sad or scared as a child, what helped?
The dark. There is nothing more to fear than the cold unknown

I think our readers would appreciate hearing more about your values and what you think matters in life and career, etc. So our next question is along those lines. Is the public version of you the real you?
Yes, to be true to yourself is to be true to the world. Do not suffocate yourself for the pleasure of others.

Okay, so let’s keep going with one more question that means a lot to us: If you laid down your name, role, and possessions—what would remain?
If Nateo Baggins has a million fans, then you are one of them.
If Nateo Baggins has ten fans, then you are one of them.
If Nateo Baggins has only one fan, then that one is you.
If Nateo Baggins has no fans, then life on Earth has ceased to exist and evil has won.
If the world is against Nateo Baggins, then life itself has imploded in on itself.
