Lain kali buat macam Joshua Oppenheimer. Dia shoot filem dokumentari kat Indonesia senyap senyap saja, takder publisiti apapun. Bila balik negara asal baru edit + release filem. Macam macam award dia dapat.
Filem The Act of Killing tu siap dapat nomination Academy Awards lagi

I wrote a little about the importance of preparing yourself for any opportunity. Don't let the train pass right in front of your eyes. https://t.co/M8obdCYtcT
She articulated this so wel in such a simple way that shows she completely understands what she’s saying.
Everyone tries to shit on materialism without acknowledging how people treat you when they don’t see any status indicators and don’t know you.
It’s common in poor countries
The best career advice for young people is to just focus relentlessly on 3 things as early as possible:
1. Get skilled. Technical skills, writing skills, people-orchestration skills, everything.
2. Get involved contributing to a mission you're aligned with. It doesn't have to be pure bliss and your contribution doesn't have to match your top strengths exactly. But at the end of the day you have to feel some pride in what you did or what you learned. If you can find something like that while becoming skilled in a number of different ways then you'll find ways to increasingly wrap your skill profile around it (and you'll find/develop strengths in your skill profile that you never expected).
3. Pick up momentum. If you do (1) and (2) right then you've got direction and potential and all that's left is to sprint forwards and achieve it. The more momentum you pick up, the better you get, the more real value you produce, the more opportunities you create, the more you get noticed, the more value you capture into your own life, the more effort you want to put in... you create a virtuous cycle with so much momentum behind it that it becomes an unstoppable virtuous cyclone.
This is true. Find someone who sees the true & real you, the potential in you, who sees your efforts. Someone who sees past your mistakes & flaws, and chooses the good in you - no matter how little or small it may be - over the bad. I've seen this in my mum, my SIL and my BIL.
He’s very much underrated. People barely talk about him. Dude lost his dad Steve Jobs to cancer when he was 20 and ended up building a $1B+ fund focused on fighting cancer, backing biotech, AI drug discovery and cancer research.
Barely does interviews, stays out of the spotlight. Could’ve spent his life doing literally anything with that last name but chose this instead. Pretty fucking cool tbh.
The #1 killer of dreams is not lack of potential, but rather lack of urgency. A natural edge you do not cash in eventually expires. Stop trying to look like someone with potential and start training like someone who intends to cash it in.
