For example if I think about haptic industries and all of the straps and products we made, It was almost always based on a true need that I myself ERIC KIM desired as a photographer and street photographer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I think also in life, looks like a lot of people want real solutions to real problems like my friend Melly&#8211;&gt; she told me the other day that her dream was fire, financial independence retire early.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, when I was in a pickle when Covid hit, one of the things that I was in need of was economic empowerment, bitcoin and later MSTR was the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So I try to think about this critically because time is the most scarce asset we have on the planet. Doesn\u2019t matter if you have like $100 trillion but you\u2019re gonna die in like a month, it would be better to be like a young scrappy inspired 21 year-old who is poor and hungry, with like 100 years ahead of you, rather than the hundred year-old trillionaire who cannot even walk on his own anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a consequence I think we must become more critical of time, energy physiological energy etc. Also another big thing I\u2019ve realized is breath power, I love to talk but the more I talk the more I lose my breath. And I lose my voice. As a consequence, each and every single word we utter should be considered.\ufffc\ufffc<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I think maybe the issue in today\u2019s world is that we\u2019re trying to propose solutions to problems that don\u2019t really exist and or, we are innovating for innovation sake?
