PHILOSOPHY:
- “It is better to beg for forgiveness than ask for permission.”
- “80% good enough and hit publish.”
- “Keep moving, and you won’t stagnate. Never stop innovating, never stop making new stuff…”
- “Stand out from the herd and do epic shit! Assert your individuality and follow your own inner voice and gut.”
- “Fuck the fear of failure. If you attempt something and fail, you’re still better than 99.99% of people who never try.”
- “You don’t need permission from anyone else – only your own approval!”
PHOTOGRAPHY:
- “Above all, street photography should be fun. If you’re not having fun when you’re shooting, you’re doing something wrong.”
- “Street photography is a zen-meditation practice.”
- “The secret to shooting good street photography is to empty your mind… let the photos shoot themselves.”
- “I shoot street photography to meet strangers, interact with them, and find more beauty in everyday life.”
- “Street photographers are compassionate, loving, empathetic human beings.”
- “Don’t worry what you photograph – define street photography for yourself.”
- “It’s not about having the ‘best’ camera; it’s about having the camera you use the most.”
BLOGGING:
- “Write a blog post 80% good enough and hit publish.”
- “Photography blogging should be fun – don’t take it too seriously.”
- “Remove ‘perfect’ from your vocabulary. Focus on production.”
- “Publish more. Whenever you publish, you gain more self-confidence and knowledge.”
- “Don’t let perfectionism hold you back – hit publish when your work is 80% there.”
ART (CREATIVITY):
- “We create art with our soul without any self-censorship… We create art because it is fun.”
- “Embrace a child’s mind as a beginner – approach art without fear or theory.”
- “Don’t shoot for an audience; shoot for yourself.”
- “You are not your photos. Separate your identity from your work.”
- “Avoid boredom – only create when you feel excited and having fun, or your work will have no soul.”
INNOVATION:
- “When you have no options, that is when you innovate.”
- “Take more shots, take more risks. Like a boxer, throw more punches until you land your knockout.”
- “Subtract options to add creativity. Restrict yourself to force resourcefulness.”
- “Keep moving; don’t stop. The rolling stone gathers no moss.”
- “Climb the mountain step by step. When you’re out of breath, keep going.”
- “Success is your only option – fuck failure, fuck fear.”
BITCOIN:
- “Bitcoin is like Apple, having the newest iPhone… Bitcoin is money perfected, with an elegance and simplicity that makes it lasting.”
- “Trust math, not institutions or humans.”
- “Never sell your Bitcoin.”
- “Count your wealth in Bitcoin, not USD.”
- “When in doubt, buy more Bitcoin!”
