Discovered a hidden gem today with my wife - a surreal pagoda tucked away in an alley. Climbed worn stairs to an unexpected room filled with countless Buddha statues. A reminder that life's wonders often hide behind everyday struggles. Keep climbing, emerge into magnificence.
It's not easy, but I'm always trying to strive to be better. The hard part is when you don't know the best way to do so. In those times I simply try to focus on the next steps in front of me and let the rest take care of itself.
Age may be inevitable, but the way we embrace it is a personal choice. Let's redefine what it means to grow old - with grace, vibrancy, & an adventurous spirit. Embrace the wisdom, seize new experiences, & let our journey through time be a testament to the beauty of living fully.
Why do I shoot film? I shoot film because it forces me to be better. With just 36 shots, I can truly focus on honing my skills and improving my craft. It compels me to create superior products and eschew mass content, instead encouraging me to prioritize quality over quantity
Believing in something bigger than yourself is an essential part of faith. Though it's hard for me to let go and trust, seeing people standing together in hope and prayer brings light to my life. No matter what you believe, I pray you find hope in it. #Faith#Hope
Who do you see in the mirror? Someone you're proud of or want to change? Resenting won't help. Make changes & move towards your goals. #selfimprovement
Never lose sight of your dreams, no matter where you are in life. It takes action, determination, and a plan to turn them into reality. Let's keep dreaming and creating a beautiful future. #dreams#inspiration#hope
Life is a journey with winding, curved roads that lead to joy, heartbreak, and unknown places. No two paths are the same. Stay present, own your journey, and find beauty in it. Stop comparing yourself to others and make the most of your life. The power is yours.
Find your flow state in life, business, relationships or simply walking down the street. Embrace the power of water, adaptable & persistent, it flows around obstacles and reshapes its surroundings. Even when stuck or frozen, access the power that flows through everything. #taoism
Saw headlights illuminating the darkness last night, reminded of our innate power to overcome fear & find solutions. We can call upon this power just like a light switch. Let's shine some light into the chaos and take control of our lives! #overcomingfear#innerstrength
Most of the time I am behind the camear, but sometimes I jump into the photo, like when Vy had a show and I snapped this shot. Film photography reminds me that life is one shot, take a chance and seize the moment. Don't wait for opportunities, create them by taking action.
Time is precious. Evaluate if something really needs a meeting or can be said in an email. Empower your workers and avoid micromanaging. Remember the 80/20 principle: prioritize important tasks, streamline processes, and focus on your strengths for greater success.
When life gets you down. Here are four ways to help keep you going.
1. Focus on the good in any given situation.
2. Keep Your Chin Up.
3. Reach out for help.
4. Just keep swimming.
Enjoy your day as much as a child enjoys a flower!
Thank you Ailani for continuing to teach me more about life and my place in your world!
Love is always around us and hope can be found on the darkest of days, if we can only seek out the light.
