“When we can’t create our own light, we become fascinated with other lights.”

not sure why this quote struck me when watching this netflix show on Buddhism

when you create your own light, you’ll be able to admire the beauty within you and others will too

you will naturally attract
between stimulus and response, there is a space

working on mediocre things is a disrespect to life. being risk averse is a disrespect to life. waking up and doing things that are not your life's work is a disrespect to life. not taking a swing at pursuing the biggest opportunity in front of your eyes is a disrespect to life

measure the distance between what you say and what you do. that distance is your entire problem. the closer those two points get to each other, the more powerful you become. when they become the same point, you become unstoppable

reminds me of naval talking about how where you live is also extremely important

probably one of the biggest decisions in life that many choose to default
been picking up video editing recently as a hobby and edited my recent travel videos

after finishing the vlog i realised how important it is to log these memories because you’ll capture even the smallest conversations or laughters which you probably would never have remembered after

it’s down to the mini interactions and laughters that make the memories so fond

it’s a pity i used to be so camera shy and refused photos/videos for over 2 decades, but now ill embrace them as much as i can

capturing moments in time that can never be gotten back

it’s in the editing that makes me look back at footages and go “wow i forgot that happened” while laughing at the silliness of things

also what made me realise the importance of it all as well

i initially procrastinated and left my editing undone for weeks, until i finally decided to push myself to complete them

glad i did

“just want to get it done asap” slowly turned into “i want to do this properly and well”

tiny progressive steps that snowball into greater forces

the things that you can accomplish when you choose to take action
