  • eso today's vlog starts with an absolute failure.

  • You see, one of the reasons that I came out to Chicago for this trip was to work on a massive video project for a company down here.

  • But it didn't pan out because the weather is just so shady and we really needed good weather today.

  • And and the worst part about it is that the weather keeps changing.

  • Like this morning it was super sunny.

  • Then it was pouring rain.

  • Now it's cloudy.

  • But yesterday and tomorrow are both perfect sunny days that we could have used to do this project.

  • It would be pretty easy to say that this is a wasted trip, but at least I get to make this video for you guys.

  • So Yahoo.

  • But you know, every single time that I come out here to Shikoku, it's a little bit different.

  • Different goals and different purposes every single time.

  • All right, Are you ready to get going?

  • Oh my God E.

  • So we're off to a meeting now and relate a little bit?

  • It's a little bit on.

  • I just realized I don't really talk about why I come out to go to this often so this might be a pretty good opportunity to do that.

  • So Sherry and I right now are working on starting something called an N.

  • P.

  • O.

  • A nonprofit organization.

  • But the MPO is gonna be focused mostly on communications and media, but we don't have all the details later yet, so I don't wanna just totally give away the farm.

  • But when I do have an update, I will share it with you know what?

  • I always forget about what?

  • That there's a castle up there.

  • You're too short, too short of a castle where I don't see every single time that I come out to Montana.

  • There's one place that we always stop.

  • Yes, it's not even that I need to buy anything.

  • I just love browsing.

  • E O.

  • You want a $50 violin?

  • How cheap?

  • Bongo drum Any cable you could.

  • A limited edition peak at U N.

  • 64.

  • So tempting or an original inbox.

  • Nintendo 20 bucks.

  • She's saying that she's never seen the original Nintendo.

  • No, I think I have a new blogging camera was wrong.

  • Now I found my new blogging camera.

  • This is so e don't think Nintendo Super Scope.

  • I haven't seen this since I was like, It's really a lot more fun for me than it is for her.

  • So mhm.

  • But you know what?

  • Our project being canceled for today actually gives me a chance to talk to you guys about something I wanted to talk about for a little while.

  • It's the idea of the hard work, the inspiration, the motivation, everything that goes into creating something, whether it be something like a vlog or a business or whatever it is.

  • Let's start with sharing.

  • You see, Sherry is by far one of the hardest working people I have ever met.

  • The girl doesn't stop.

  • In fact, it took me almost a year to convince her to even start taking breaks and shouldn't even watch Netflix into, like eight months ago.

  • And I want to start by asking Sherry a question that I already know the answer to.

  • But it's kind of set up for something I want to talk to you guys about.

  • Do you always have, like, the energy and motivation Thio get up and do all that work every day?

  • Um, honestly, No.

  • Like I'm normal person, you know, So, like sometimes like I just went to sleep entire day or something like that.

  • But life keeps moving, so I kinda have Thio keep moving to thank you, and that slightly touches on the point that I wanna make.

  • But I'm certainly get hungry.

  • You, to Lett's Grab some Food on the Weather, has taken a turn for the worst again restaurant we're going to just down the road, but we don't have an umbrella, so we're gonna drive.

  • Coco's Sherry laughs at me for how much I loved this restaurant.

  • Eso I've got this friend named Frankie.

  • She's an artist, and she turned me on to a quote by another artist, an artist named Chuck.

  • Close on.

  • The quote goes, as such inspiration is for amateurs, the rest of us just show up and get to work.

  • Chuck Close is a painter and a photographer, and what makes him amazing is the fact that not only is he a successful artist, but he does so while paralyzed due to a spinal collapse that he suffered back in the eighties.

  • Eso sherry, what do you think?

  • Is that an accurate quote?

  • Definitely.

  • Food, food, food.

  • This place is all about the insane drink bar good food on so sleepy.

  • Now let's get out of here.

  • E personally rarely find inspiration.

  • In fact, I make a point of trying not to.

  • I find that sometimes it contains the flavor of my work and take away from my originality.

  • Much like Sherry.

  • I just try to keep moving.

  • It's not that I'm always motivated or always have energy.

  • I will admit that it is much easier when you're doing something that you love.

  • But even then, they're gonna be days that you need to push yourself more often than not, just getting started is the hardest part.

  • Like I know this especially with my exercise, which is one of the reasons that I set a schedule like 30 minutes of exercise every morning and every night, no matter what, I'd probably be pretty fat without that schedule.

  • Super quick break to say bye to Sherry.

  • Thank you for having me.

  • Thank you for coming.

  • My pleasure.

  • Sorry our project didn't work out.

  • It's my fault.

  • It's the rain.

  • I always bring the rain going through next time.

  • Next time to see you soon.

  • Right.

  • Alright.

  • Cheers.

  • Tomorrow.

  • Yes.

  • It definitely takes conscious effort to overcome low motivational walls, so don't feel bad.

  • If you're not always motivated or inspired to do something, don't feel bad.

  • If you're having a low energy day, it's not just you, and it doesn't mean that you're a failure.

  • It means that you're a totally normal person who has to push forward like everybody else.

  • Just the way I like it last on the plane first off, but getting back in all this for a second, There is one thing that I wanna say and that's all of this is just my thoughts.

  • I don't know.

  • Maybe you're exactly the same.

  • Or maybe you have a completely different view.

  • Perhaps let me know down below.

  • I'd like to note either way, I really enjoyed spending the day with you guys.

  • Thanks so much for joining on that note.

  • Don't forget to give that, like, button some love.

  • You guys know I wanna hang out with you in the comments today.

  • So I will see you down there.

  • We'll see you guys again.

  • Really soon.

eso today's vlog starts with an absolute failure.
