If your prime objective is performance, then aesthetics don’t matter.

What’s the most hardcore and intense without you can do in only 10 minutes, warmup included?

I want to shoot a billion photos before I die. Let this be my prime directive.

When you’re the best, use that position of power to fearlessly and recklessly innovate.

Why I love lifting weights: I love the pump!

Instead of desiring for things to be otherwise.

Use money to buy meat — the best bang for the buck or use of money.

Why is it that liberals are not allowed to have “American pride“?

What we seek is not power, but overpower.

My passion for things, and materials which are insanely durable.

The more beef we consume, the stronger and more powerful we become?

Optimize things in life that allows for your maximal movement.

Where white Apple devices are beautiful and pure in design.

This is what defines ”photographic style”.

Style: what you find interesting (or not).

I’m complete. Now what?

When everyone is going a certain way, go opposite.

“Irrational” decisions are the best decisions.

With planning, schedules and the future, always plan for the tail events (contingencies) and always add extreme buffer in terms of time, money, plan/schedule etc.

My life is perfect. Now what?

My new favorite focal length.

In praise of vibram five finger shoes.

It is the thing that no matter what, I always desire to do.

Just picked up this fun LEGO Chess Set — and building the sides (ornamentation) — massive waste of time. I just want to quickly build the thing to start playing chess immediately!

Better to be perpetually in motion.

Tesla as the most interesting car, Bitcoin as the most interesting crypto, and for you to win, YOU must become the most interesting person in your own category.

‘Mobility and ease’ (Rodchenko). Also note how timing, anticipation and ‘the decisive moment‘ is equivalent in both sports photography and street photography.
