In today’s world, a big key to success is standing out. How does one do this?
The first thought is adopt a color scheme, or a color, palette, which is unusual, and sticks out. For example, the vibrant blood Crimson red I adopt on this blog.
Another idea is go off script. Do things differently than the way others do it.
Third, act unexpectedly. Don’t follow formalities. In some ways, to act more “Asperger’s†is good.
I love traditional Japanese wabi-sabi design, hate their modern design.
For example, I have never seen or witnessed a Japanese car, that ages well. Also, when it comes to their technology, like their phones, and other devices, they age poorly.

FUTURE WORKFLOWS
It seems that the current creative workflow is too basic; too much focus on curating a single image, and uploading it to social media for likes, and the promise of new followers. What we must do instead is strive to innovate a new workflow; more self hosted, open source, focus on PDFs and files, and shareable links.
More things self hosted on your own server. Self hosted email newsletter services (sendy.co), self hosted websites and blogs, wordpress.org, and file sharing services.
Being here in Phnom Penh, the greatest adoption of technology is mobile phones. Even the poor can afford a smartphone, and 4G internet.
I love insanely fast! Importing photos on iPad Pro M1 with USB-C SD CARD READER — my extreme joy how insanely fast the importing process is!
The secret to extracting the most out of life:
Read more: TIME LEVERAGE.
The strong admire, aspire towards, or do something about it.
For example, everyone is always complaining about how China is stealing everything. Yet, they don’t understand that what the Chinese lack is ingenuity. And also, America and the west is too caught up over copyright; copyright is an unnatural thing. Consider how in the animal kingdom, all animals who seek ascendancy will copy, cheat, lie, and steal and rob from one another.
Therefore, instead of criticizing, critiquing, or complaining about things or others, best to simply change the variables.
To do things quickly as a superior mode of doing things, than striving for perfection“ quality. Speed is better time leverage.
Or like Mark Zuckerberg used to say with Facebook, “Move quickly and break stuff!â€
In photography, it is all good. No need to exclude certain types of subject matter or places.
I do not believe life’s goal is happiness. Why not? Then what is the difference between us great human beings, and happy cows?
Perhaps, we should choose productivity over happiness?
Another reason why trap bar deadlifts makes much more sense; you are in the epicenter of the weight, with a maximum amount of leverage and force.
Also, why it is often useful to live in the capital city of a country. Like why I love Phnom Penh— living in a hotel in the extreme downtown, with the most vibrancy, excitement, and street life!
LEVERAGE YOUR TIME — this is key.
Your time in life is limited. Therefore, it seems in order to get the maximum out of existence, the goal is to best leverage your time, as wisely as possible.
For example, as much as I love going to the gym, it still seems the wisest mode of action it’s only go once a week, and just attempt my maximum lift, once a week. Then, all the other spare time I can have is to leverage my more unique abilities — the time to go through my photos, the opportunity to write, publish, share, vlog, etc.
Therefore, I don’t think we should be thinking about “being time efficient“, or even being “effective“. Time leverage is a more useful concept.
Even having technology with faster processors, which allows us to do more and less time. This is simply time leverage. Or being able to Uber everywhere instead of having to drive yourself, find parking, waste time, etc.
Therefore, it seems that the wisest and the best entrepreneur is he who is best able to leverage his or her time, the most intelligently.
(more…)I only desire to be hyped up all day!
The gym as my own personal zen temple:
Also like an adult playground.
The gym as perhaps one of the most virtuous places to go:
I recommend just using a GoPro (ultra wide mode), 24fps– 720p is sufficient!
Also another pro tip:
Take your vlog videos, and screenshot them!
Double-dipping creativity:
Cambodia pretty much accepts US dollars everywhere. All of their products, services, food, and stuff is written in both in their local currency, and in US dollars.
Also, Cambodia is pretty much bilingual in English. Everyone here speaks some degree of English. They also love YouTube, Facebook messenger.
I also see a lot of Ford trucks here, a lot of F150 raptor’s.
