  1. I do the majority of my creative work in the morning because… same! Waking up at 5 means I can get 1-2 hours of high quality work done before I head out for my job.
  2. I have a job and a ton of creative work to focus on. At the right time, the next solo retreat will happen. I hope you time is profound
  3. Like what? What specifically? and did you do the action steps in the Life Purpose course?
  4. Any specific domain to ask questions within?
  5. I want to understand. your zone of genius is to ask the right questions?
  6. just a perspective here, question it and me. Talent does exist, but talent is not usually the defining factor in success. Talent is often like starting 100-200 feet ahead, in an ultra marathon (50k or more.) in most cases what matters more is practice, investment into that thing over the course of 5-20 years. In the case of looks, often, even an "ugly guy" can work on his body and build his mind into something extremely attractive. By investing into it over the course of 5-10 years. You need to pop this bubble that things just are the way they are and cant change. Warmly, Paul
  7. Great direction to head! Everyone sucks to some degree when they start. My perspective would be to make crappy videos! why would your first 1-20 be good? Try reading from a script, try it without, try writing cliff notes, post the videos, move on, keep learning. Practically though, if I am reading from a script it usually takes 4-6 recordings before I land on one that is good enough. momentum is gained, the articulation becomes easier, looking at the script less necessary. Have you released any videos yet? All the best! Paul
  8. Thanks for sharing these! I've never had projects to apply these ideas/techniques to till now, its amazing.
  9. Well done by starting and continuing on with YouTube, it is quite a journey!

All the best to you! Warmly, Paul
  10. How do you think you can help the world by playing poker?
  11. Love this move! and Viggo Mortenson! Another great movie with him in it inspired by true events. Amazing to see this characters growth and expansion of concern for others. Funny, heavy and profound at times, and great acting.
  12. https://www.youtube.com/@Batgap Buddha at the Gas Pump, could be interesting! Tagline from the YT Channel "Conversations with Spiritually Awakening People..." Also from the YT channel. "To suggest a guest, refer to our website: https://batgap.com/future-interviews/suggest-guest/. Please do not email your suggestions."
  13. Why not? The biggest thing that comes to mind is the power dynamic. Similar to why its illegal for therapists to have sex with their clients until two years after the termination of the therapeutic relationship.
  14. I love that it is sung live, the guitar playing is consistent and solid, well done, I admire the effort you put into this. for feedback, if I were to work on this song... I would create new lyrics to a similar or slightly different melody for the second and third verse. I would look up some song structures to get an idea of how to make it engaging and non-repetitive. The part "I, always love you, etc.." would be awesome leading into a bridge with different chords. it could be just the word "I" sung longer, more space to let the guitar stand out, if possible, find new strumming/picking styles for the chorus so it stands out more experiment with different levels of energy. the beginning could be strummed chords and slower the first chorus could break into a more upbeat picking pattern and a bit faster continue picking pattern and speed for second chorus etc.. make it dynamic. overall, great job for creating and sharing, I am proud of you! Warmly, Paul
  15. Cripps Pink Apples. though, sadly I cant eat them right now, SIBO/Fodmaps I miss them dearly. hopefully soon I can enjoy the crispy, tart and sweet bites of heaven with some peanut butter <3
  16. I met my current girlfriend while exploring my life purpose. I wasn't looking for it, I had basically decided I was done trying to date, and was just going to focus on my work, and we met, stayed friends long distance for a year, then she came to visit after a year of us deepening our connection, and I asked her to be my girlfriend, that was 1.8 years ago. Its incredible having someone that supports and believe in me. in my vision, in my art, in my life purpose.
  17. You're wrong.. I am actually 6% as productive as I could be
  18. I dont know. If I were to guess?? Trauma is a big component, lack of healthy male role models, and being born into a low stage environment.
  19. Used to do 3d sculping and basic game design as a teen using Blender. This brings back memories! Great job. Keep going!
  20. Hey Y'all, I want to share with you Episode 1 of a Music based self-documentation project I have been working on since the end of April. It follows my journey writing a song from the ground up, the ups and downs of that journey, shot in a cinematic way *as cinematic as my current skill level haha. As I finish this project, I feel a lot of pride in how far I have come, and how much uncertainty I chose to overcome to create this 4 part series. whether a lot of people watch it or just a few, whether people like it or not: I am proud of the effort and learning I did. I also hope that it resonates with at least one person, that they feel inspired to create something authentic in their life. I would love any feedback you have. Things/moments that were boring to you. Thumbnail/title perspective Musical feedback other Thank you! Warmly, Paul
