Your choices are important

Recently I watched a tedtalk about choice we have in the occidental society. I remember the guy tried to explain the problem with our society is we get too many choices to do every day and it results in a paralysis of people. So his solution to a better society seem to reduce the opportunity we have. After I watch it, I was not sure I understood what he really tried to explain, but what is really important is it makes me think at the choices we have every day.

I thought about it for a while and I came with a personal answer. I believe the problem is not in the amount of choices we face, it’s in the choices we make. I think we all need to learn to make better choice that will influence our life for the best. We need to reflect on what we really need from life and walk this way.

I believe it’s a better solution because reducing the opportunity we have in life sound to me a regression in time. We live in a time where there is so much great opportunity to make as a living and everyone gets the power to create a life worth living if they make the choices that can bring them there.

So today I want you to think about the choices you make because if you understand the power of every little choice, you will understand how every decision you take influence your life tomorrow.

Have a nice day,Jean-Philippe Belley

Do something meaningful !!!

For a long time, I wondered what the difference between people who succeed in life and those who don’t ?

After studying the question the best I can and reading about it often, I came with an answer :

People who succeed do something to make things happen.

I know a lot of people who have nice idea or dream that could improve their life so much, who spend their time complaining about their job, watching TV or just partying to forget the reality (I did the same for a long time too). There is nothing bad watching TV or partying, but if you have time for this you need to realise that you have time to learn what you love to do in life.

I know that it’s hard to change our habits that’s why you should start today trying to change only one thing, but one thing that can bring you closer to your dream.

So today, I invite you to read a book, watch a tutorial or whatever you can about what you love to do in life.

Enjoy your day

Add art to your life !

In the last years, I discovered that living itself is art.

At the same time, I decide to put more work in the art I like to do and become better at it. Then, I realize the more I learn about my art, the more I learn about living a good life. I think the reason that my arts affect my life is everything you learn can be applied in another field. For example, in the last year I learned a lot about mixing music. The more you will know about mixing music, the more you will understand that there no right way to do it instead of practicing and making choice that sound good to you. You need to learn to trust yourself to get a better mix. It’s crazy when you apply this philosophy in your life, how you gain self-confidence and you learn to trust your choice in life even other don’t believe in these choices. So, I really encourage you to work harder in what you love to do and you will see that you learn twice as when you are at school.

To learn more about this philosophy of art and life, I suggest you that you read about Seth Godin. The way he sees life, work and life is really close to mine and usually he put words on thing I was thinking a long time ago.
