“At 15 I set my heart on learning…”
Something to remember as you reach each new stage in your life.
At 15 I set my heart on learning, at 30 I knew where I stood, at 40 I had no more doubts, at 50 I knew the will of Heaven, at 60 my ears were attuned, and at 70 I followed my heart’s desire without crossing the line.
Confucius
“Try not to become a person of success, but rather try to become a person of value.”
I can’t resist a good Einstein quote. The quintessential scientist knew that it takes a lot more than numbers to solve big, break-through problems.
He also had a knack for communicating powerful human ideas simply.
Try not to become a person of success, but rather try to become a person of value.
Albert Einstein
If you want to be like Einstein, don’t chase success. Just stay curious and bring value.
“A universal visual language”
Right in the middle of this episode of The Daily podcast, there’s a little plug for the New York Times’ photographers, noting that they travel to dangerous places and learns skills like scuba diving just to get the right shot for the story.
I love that they describe photography as “a universal visual language”. I mean, it’s true! You can show a photograph to literally anyone in any part of the world, and they would surely get its meaning.
A photograph can do a lot of different things. It can connect us. It can bring us to places we’ve never been before. It can capture a story in a universal visual language.
👉 In my dream life, I’d be a part-time Times photographer, but for now I do my best around Austin. 😆
“A healthy society should not have just one voice”
Dr. Li Wenliang said this when he was trying to spread word of the new coronavirus in China in 2019 and being shut down by the government.
A healthy society should not have just one voice.
Dr. Li Wenliang
Here’s the story. The New York Times spent a year investigating his death and the effort to silence him. It’s a fascinating 15-minute video.
