Realms of Wonder

I wont break it down to the level you are, but I enjoyed it. I liked Bobberty Pattinson in it, him playing multiple "parts" of himself was fun to watch. I thought the VFX and set design was original, at least fun. I agree the concept is pretty original, and I liked it overall. I Agree also that it could have been developed better, that the 'arc' of the movie was pretty boring. I would give it a 7/10

Hey man, it was fun reading this. Taking a long hiatus from the forum, coming back here and there.. A lot of these points are pretty obvious once articulated. But I am curious. Where did the idea to do this come from? Did you notice any conversations that didn't fit within the frame you expected to find?

I have followed your YouTube channel and have for a while. It doesn't seem like you are playing the 'game' of YouTube. You have a huge catalog, and a fanbase, but I feel like there is a lot of lost opportunity because of the Thumbnails, Titles, Structure, and lack of remarkability around your work. It's obvious you care about it. I feel like your desire to go beyond the dated or inaccurate parts of qui gong could become part of your niche. Combining it with other modalities/forms of energy/body work. Even videos on what you DONT agree with within Qui gong could be interesting. Most people, myself included know nothing about it, but I would he interested in hearing what "doesn't work" or is "outdated" or "wrong" If you'd like I can share resources that have helped me on YouTube. It is quite a journey, I still have a long way to go. Big picture it seems obvious that you are on the right track, you care about it, and are on the cusp of innovating in a way that will set you apart. Keep it up!

@Thought Art Hey Man, question for you. If you YouTube channel/funnel was successful enough to pay your bills + more, would you be in this predicament?

Not saying you need to follow this word for word, but I created a process for myself when I do Solo Retreats. (It is a Google doc) Have fun! "How To Take A Solo Retreat"

What do you want out of life?

I don't Know.

You're right, if it were obvious there would be no reason to explain it.

Leo's first playlist had a few bangers. The second one is mid. I love how different music taste can be. Leo fully believes it is the greatest ever, I dont, we are both right.

Thanks for this, I can work on it

I can only speak from my own experience. But my life has been pretty meaningless till I started making changes I cared about. For example, I started eating cleaner to feel my body and live longer. I started creating music because it was a LITTLE bit interesting, I built habits that had heard were good for me till I felt results or not. Now my life is REALLY meaningful, and I created that. I didn't "Find it" anywhere, I built it out of nothing.

how old are you?

Been experiencing this a TON in my creative work. it is expanding to include Music, Computer animation, Script writing and storytelling, editing and much more, its so fun and the insights keep on cumming!

Big picture, what could happen? I have read the synopsis of 2025, but have been focusing more on creative work than understanding politics.

The cannibalizations of their values and vision for money. Thinking different and innovation has turned into locked systems for the lowest common denominator and shiny unimaginative iterations on existing product lines. The Human rights, child labor, etc.. That is big too, but not what I was thinking of when I posted this.

Love the truthfulness in this 'Review.' Having an iPhone myself, it's disgusting what apple is turning into, this will be my last iPhone.

@jacknine119 You're welcome! These are questions I've had to ask myself because even though my work on YouTube is in the 'personal development' space, I dont want to teach.

I don't game much any more, but this struck me as both really creative ad unique!

maybe there are multiple ways to look at it. 1. Gaining more understanding of personal development can increase the quality and power of your personal insights. 2. Be more than just another self help YouTuber telling people how to change their life. 3. Find a way to combine your unique insights with other passions of yours, then SHOW our journey, bringing people into a Self-Actualizing journey. 4. What if you aren't a 'self help' YouTuber, but a wiser then average liver of life? How can you show your journey in an authentic way, infusing it with wisdom? 5. What would happen if you just started, and led the clarity come over the course of your first 100 videos? There are probably many more ways to look at it, but, only you can choose what you want and let the path present itself Warmly, Paul

Yeah, some of his older videos are direct copies, his newer work is more original.

Excitement, action, new clarity, followed by uncertainty, distraction, low energy. THEN… Higher orders of excitement, action, more clarity, following by deeper levels of uncertainty, distraction etc.. The more I create, the more uncertainty I can tolerate. The more I uncertainty I can tolerate, the higher I can create.

As I research visual inspiration for an upcoming project, I stumbled upon Bioluminescence, here are some of the coolest pictures I have found so far.

I don’t think it’s that binary. even if it takes 10k hours to master something, most of our lives are long enough to master more than two things.

Not saying to copy me, here is my balance right now. my priorities are 1. Life purpose 2. Health 3. Relationships Days I work a double Wake up at 4:45, go on a walk while I brush my teeth 15-20 minutes generating ideas for my YT channel 80 minutes music creation breakfast Work from 8:00 AM to 6:30 P.M (meal prepped lunch in between shifts) Eat around 7:00/7:15 read, watch YT, edit a video, be distracted, etc.. bed by 9:15 days I work a short shift Wake up at 4:45, go on a walk while I brush my teeth 15-20 minutes generating ideas for my YT channel 80 minutes music creation Gym from 6:45/7:00-8:15 breakfast then shower work at 9:00-3:00 (meal prepped snacks between giving massages) groceries after work meal prep Edit, read, music, video shoot, watch a movie FaceTime my brother or YT mastermind call with my girlfriend Sleep by 9:15 (usually) days I am off (more relaxed about timing) Wake up at 4:45, go on a walk while I brush my teeth 15-20 minutes generating ideas for my YT channel 80 minutes music creation Gym from 6:45/7:00-8:15 breakfast then shower Clean Edit/video shoot break/walk/watch YT EDIT/music break watch a movie facetime my girlfriend or my other parent sleep by 9:15 (80% of the time) Hope that gives an idea of how days can be invest. warmly, Paul
