Infinite possibilities.

The presentation at BU was very interesting. It was all about social media in our digital age. That is what I want to do later in life.

Social media is ever changing. There is so much that is evolving. In the very early days, when I wasn’t even alive, we didn’t even have Facebook. and now there is so much we can use it for. 

There is even more technology that I didn’t know about till today. I mean it’s amazing how far we’ve come

Creativity pushes the boundaries of technology. Without technology, there is no creativity. That’s why technology is at a vital point in our digital world. It’s how we communicate, work, play and learn.

Technology is ever changing in our society. There is so many ways we can use it. With the integration of science and math, it pushes the boundaries of what you can create. That opens up our imagination as what we can make. Infinite possibilities.

The power of culture.

Vibrant cites. Creative minds. A world of new opportunities for children to explore. This is the power of culture. 

The power of culture. Well, what is culture? Culture is the world we live in.

Take a look outside. The people walking up an down the street. The people stopping to ask questions. The Thinkers. The Creators. The Problem Solvers

Our city is rich with culture. All around us. Culture is.

Culture is unique.

Culture sparks our creativity

Culture is diverse.

Culture is inclusive.

Culture is important.

It helps up to live a better day. It helps us to raise questions about who we really are.

Inspiring a new generation to make our world even better.

Culture is how we communicate.

Culture helps foster creativity.

It helps us come up with new ideas.

New opportunities arise every day.

It is to explore the light of discovery 

We are innovators, coming up with 

New ideas. New possibilities.

New ideas for the future.

It is the chance to explore your imagination.

Play with these ideas where you are are still young. 

Let your mind wander beyond your wildest dreams.

Because once you get older, you wander no more.

Civilly

We must always practice civility. Civility is always the right thing to do. But we must ask ourselves: What is civility?

Civility is the act of being kind and being a good citizen. To be civil is to help someone in need. In light of recent events, that is more important than ever.

Civilly means to be kind. To show respect to one another. This is NOT to show hatred! Celebrate our diversity and respect that everyone is unique. 

Now where do we start being civil? If you read my Facebook post the other night, you know that I’m all about service. Service is good because it helps build up a sense of community and it helps our neighbors in need.

Resistance.

We need to let go of resistance. There is a difference between amateur and pro. We need to turn pro.

How do we turn from amateur to pro? The ammeter can't think of any ideas. His idea are not good enough. The pro on the other hand works for hours till he gets something done, and that sits back, feeling accomplished.

As Steven Pressfield said, "The difference between an amateur and a professional is in their habits. An amateur has amateur habits. A professional has professional habits. We can never free ourselves from habit. But we can replace bad habits with good ones"

The habit we need to break is resistance. What keep us from doing good work? Nothing. What prevents us from doing good work is ourselves. 

Try something new.

Photography. You might get bored of it after a while. And not to say that I don't get bored of it. I do. But you can make the most interesting photograph out of whatever you have, even around your house.

Try different angles. Try to compose your shots differently all the time.

Now, this is not a blog post to say to quit whatever you do to start photography. But I know I'm very passionate about it, and as with everything you do, try to make it interesting.

Say that you've just bought a new car. It's brand spanking new, and you take it out for a test drive for the first time. You love your new car for the first two months. But then you say, eh, I could care less.

If you really love something. Say a sport or something, and you find that you're consistently bored with it, try to spruce it up a little bit. Or try something new.

Creative block

I have a hard time sometimes coming up with ideas. Creating is not easy. Waking up every day and coming up with new ideas.

I try to look for inspiration on different websites, but for graphic design, it's hard to replicate those if you have no idea how they do it.

I'm starting a Graphics course, so that will defiantly help, but I still need help on what to create.

Only so much time

There's a simple way to say this. There's not enough hours in the day to do all of the stuff we want to do. Even for me, and I'm still in school. I suppose as I get older and I am out of school, it will get easier to manage my time.

Now, this wasn't a problem just for today. Every day. It feels like there's so much we want to accomplish, but not enough time to do it all.

Planning helps, sure. But it doesn't really. Even when you plan, things can get off track sometimes and you can't focus at the task at hand. And sometimes, you sit down to accomplish something, but it doesn't go the way you want it to.

And that's where learning comes in. But the thing is, you only have so much time in the day to lear.
