    I heard a saying that goes like “don’t force yourself to get into something, but find something you’re so obsessed with that you have a hard time putting it down”. Thank you for reminding me man, your videos are very inspiring!

    Only realised recently why I was feeling so bitter and empty, because I wasn’t acting on the curiosity and ideas my brain feeds me. Past 3 years I followed others advice for my career. To do business, to get marketing skills. But I am only becoming more and more angry at the world. I think it’s because I’m not expressing my self through music.

    Being able to enjoy the work that you do is invaluable. At some point, it doesn't even feel like work.
    Today, I began editing videos for the apprenticeship I just started and had a great time. And I'm always eager to go back the next day. When I got home, I sketched out a whole one-page comic that I was really happy with. Previously, it would take me a few days, because I get distracted easily. I'll be finishing that up and inking it later tomorrow.

    • @tozakfilming

      That's awesome. I also started editing videos for businesses recently as I'm starting my videography freelancing. It was a lot of fun and didn't feel like work. I enjoyed it and so it went by quickly. Was a huge gratitude check for me. Best of luck w all the work, enjoy!!

    • @tozakfilming

      yessss I resonate a lot, this too happens to me. What I try to do is journal and write down the things I am feeling in the night so at least I can act on something material in the morning. It will still be a challenge to act w will power but there's no obstacle around that. It just is and we have to confront it, but that only means it is our destiny to finally overcome it

I'm a musician and artist but it's so hard to find ways to romanticize the process of making that work. Also, i think that what you describe here as "magic" is what Julia Cameron was trying to teach me in the artists way but i kept getting hung up on the language she used. But "magic", thats POWERFUL.

    There is something about the process too that some people should also believe, the fact that they have the goal in mind or know what they must do deep down, that is something they should commend themselves for. All the time, I tell myself "no one can unleash your artistic vision and passion like you do, only you." and I think it's something to think about whenever one is losing hope or nervous.

    • @tozakfilming
      @tozakfilming  4 дні тому +1

      Yes very true, no one else will be able to do this for you. You are seeing what you are seeing for a reason. No one else is seeing the exact vision in your mind. It's a calling and until it is answered, something won't feel right in the soul. We need to embrace it and realize that it's our destiny to pursue it. Like you said, only us. I believe God gives us these visions. It's not something to ignore. It will reward us, in a fulfilling way

    great advice. what about forcing yourself to do the things you have to do and don't like but are necessary to evolve in life?

      Make a video on this? Discipline is a form of love and would love to talk about it more. This is very important for artists as our personal growth journey is very hand in hand with our artists journey

    Highly inspirational, especially with what I’m going through creatively now.
    Also 5:24 unfortunately it’s like 90
    degrees with max humidity where I live and I sweat like a pig, but otherwise good advice

      yes I get you totally, I was in Florida the other week visiting family and it was difficult to be outside during the day because of the heat, what I tried to do instead was spend as much time outside during sunrise and sunset as I could, as well as short times throughout the day even in heat. Sunset is so nice outside w the breeze

      @@tozakfilming hmm, I think thats probably a good idea. Usually I rush to work in the morning, but it’s really nice around sunrise. I’ll take some time to wake up earlier.
      It’s usually the most humid then but the temperature is as low as night
