Guillermo del Toro wins Golden Lion for The Shape of Water at the 74th Venice Film Festival

Just an annual reminder that you shouldn’t be relying on the first of January to reflect upon whether or not the circumstances you consent to are in your best interest. This is little more than a knee-jerk reaction to the cultural pressure to convey self-improvement; a vast majority of people posturing for social approval, rather than having their goals stemming from a sincere initiative to make change. So may this “New Year’s Resolution” be your last, as you acknowledge your ability to overcome procrastination, stagnancy, and monotony, as you desire, when you desire.

There is no such thing as originality. Our thoughts are influenced by other thoughts, our ideas are the sum of different pieces of other ideas.

Originality is just a puzzle arranged in an apparently different way.

“Daydreaming does not enjoy tremendous prestige in our culture, which tends to regard it as unproductive thought. Writers perhaps appreciate its importance better than most, since a fair amount of what they call work consists of little more than daydreaming edited. Yet anyone who reads for pleasure should prize it too, for what is reading a good book but a daydream at second hand? Unlike any other form of thought, daydreaming is its own reward. For regardless of the result (if any), the very process of daydreaming is pleasurable. And, I would guess, is probably a psychological necessity. For isn’t it in our daydreams that we acquire some sense of what we are about? Where we try on futures and practice our voices before committing ourselves to words or deeds? Daydreaming is where we go to cultivate the self, or, more likely, selves, out of the view and earshot of other people.” –Michael Pollan “A Place of My Own”

Even billionaires understand the struggle

“We have a dance in the brothels of Buenos Aires. It tells the story of the prostitute and a man who falls in love with her. First, there is desire. Then, passion. Then, suspicion. Jealousy. Anger. Betrayal. When love is for the highest bidder, there can be no trust. Without trust, there can be no love. Jealousy, yes, jealousy will drive you mad.”

When he asks me to explain him what is a start-up

It's not that difficult to understand!

imagine if the oceans were replaced by forests and if you went into the forest the trees would get taller the deeper you went and there’d be thousands of undiscovered species and you could effectively walk across the ocean but the deeper you went, the darker it would be and the animals would get progressively scarier and more dangerous and instead of whales there’d be giant deer and just wow
