[Homer Pavlos @HomerPavlos]

I can’t find the words to describe how bad this scene is.

In Homer’s Odyssey (Book 12), Circe advised Odysseus that he himself might listen to the Sirens’ song "with delight."

Odysseus told his men to bind him tightly to the mast while plugging their own ears with beeswax.

When the Sirens began to sing with their beautiful voices, Odysseus recounted that his heart "longed to listen," and he signaled to his men with his eyebrows, ordering them to set him free.

Following his earlier instructions, they bound him even more tightly and kept rowing until the song faded.

The Sirens’ song promised knowledge and joy, making the listener "a wiser man" before leading him to death.

Curious and resourceful, Odysseus deliberately chose to experience it, knowing in advance that his desire would overpower his reason. His feelings were thus a mix of delight, longing, and internal struggle (the inability to resist despite his careful preparations).

Modern interpretations sometimes emphasize the pain of unfulfilled desire or psychological torment, although that is not what the Homeric text writes. But here Nolan made something totally embarrassing. I mean, what is this? He literally made a movie with great special effects and music but has nothing to do with the primary source which is Homer's Odyssey. He should have named it "Noladyssey", this is not an Odyssey.

«All the things you wanted to be and then
all the things you wished you never wished for.

It was a delicious itch you want to scratch
but you find it under the skin and can't reach it.
So the delicious itch becomes unbearable.

It told you what you most want is what you
most can't have and that the most you can't
have is what you already had and lost.

It was a song of all the promises I failed to keep.
And it told me I don't really want to go home.»

Strong suggestion:

Do watch Nadal's documentary on Netflix. Suffering is necessary in order to achieve big things in life. Nothing comes easily.

Human brain is wired to seek comfort, but the real development happens in solitude and ability to put in the reps again & again.

Follow the DCP framework to achieve your goals

Discipline
Consistency
Patience

"the success you've been looking for is hidden in the work you've been avoiding". that quote is crazy because it applies to all forms of gains. financial, fitness, relationships. the life you want for yourself is literally waiting on you, you just have to put in the work first.

I’m in love with this sentence:
