ELEGANCE, BEAUTY, AWESOMENESS, AND YOURS;

if there is any single thesis to my work and life, i hope it is to help my peers live more engaged and great: to better understand themselves and what they really want, to remind them of the vastness of experience and opportunity available to us; and to find the strength within them to pursue it ruthlessly and in good company. (we'll see how much that changes in the years to come)

behind closed doors, most of us fundamentally suffer from the same few issues regarding confidence, purpose, self-awareness, self-image, belonging, and identity. in extreme cases, you can notice the simple doubts. i fundamentally don't think that is acceptable. we're not here for long enough to keep fighting and losing battles to ourselvess.

i've long looked up to countless artists, business leaders, engineers, and great people that i hope to join the list of (is innumerous and continues to push me through today).

at the end of the day, we all want a good story, we all want to be accepted and comforted, and following that, we all want to rise to a challenger. anxiety, aimlessness, loneliness, and stress. as far as i understand, that is built by better support, doper friendships and bonds, and the best path to re-ignite that spark

there is no distinction between the "arts and the sciences", the conscious and the intuitive, the work and the life - it's all one experience. keep it

common as they are, they're not necessarily any more straightforward to resolve - it is a continued effort and structure with the people around you. the remedy is not to just write about them or tell them at speeches, or teach about it in lectures. ; countless philosophers, professors, and (prose) more brilliant than me have covered this ground millions of times before, i'm sure, but it was the performers (and their poetry) whose intensity you could feel , whose messages were not constrained by the bounds of objectivity and structure; i.e., it was fun.

still, it's one thing to have good ideas, another to execute it well; i'm excited to see what happens these next couple years. do i really got it like i think i can?

B^U - it's simpler than it looks
