I just published my first homework for @AliAbdaal's Part Time YouTuber Academy. It's an ad-lib riff on "let the others find you", an important modification of Timothy Leary's "find the others" 19/100 videos (and some behind the scenes below) https://t.co/28ibQ3l8pa

I want to share some process here. I'm currently hugely overloaded by work and other things, but having done Write of Passage and BASB, I know that it's preferable to do SOMETHING rather than let expectations of quality lead to NOTHING. So I wanted to publish something...

The assignment was "my favourite things", so I riffed on an article I had already written and that I already know people like. Repurposing content in different contexts is totally fine, and this talking to camera approach led to some fun new ideas. https://t.co/PjONM5VKva

I wrote an article riffing on Timothy Leary's advice to "find the others". I think we should let the others find us by being vulnerable and by going first. That's how we connect and what "life is made of small moments like this" is about @aboveandbeyond https://t.co/7QxDjiajD0 https://t.co/3yv3pukqnP

And, by the way, being comfortable with being weird is not only a great way to let the others find you, it's also just a really fun way of being. https://t.co/7XmOYsCipX

@m_ashcroft Minor tech feedback: maybe just me but I wanted the volume to be louder.

@RichDecibels Thanks! I will reply on YouTube when I get to replying on YouTube. Duly noted on the volume, it's hard for me to tell.
