Let the world happen to you
Let it shape you. Let the curveballs evolve you. Not break you
While watching a surprisingly inspiring small YouTube video about film, I came across this familiar idea. Ultimate freedom is not when we are at our best; whether that is creatively or otherwise.
Really, a necessary condition for us to evolve is for us to adapt: which requires a challenge.
Don't wish for freedom from everything so you can do anything, start with solving what’s right in front of you. Let your problems guide you somewhere you may not expect. Let us not avoid our problems, let us use them.
Thought I'd share the video for future reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDERbNHfLaE
