I hope you guys are doing amazing wherever you are in the world.
My name is Bhoom Shekha and I welcome you to my channel.
I welcome you to all of my videos and if you guys have been watching them and enjoying them I really really really appreciate that and I hope that you keep on sticking around to watch all the videos that I'm going to be doing in the future.
In this video I wanted to speak to you guys about how it's actually more fun to let things happen as they are and not to think about the future too much because it's actually that's the whole fun part about the journey or about the stuff that we're doing is to not realize what the end point is going to be.
Now Deafunk,
I don't know exactly how to say that but he actually put a comment on my channel and this is what he says.
He said a bunch of other things and then he says,
Plus it also helps me to have a simple idea of where you're going in life.
I'm starting to change my mindset to appreciate the mystery of the artistic journey of whatever I'm doing because what fun is it if you know what's gonna happen.
There's no adventure in that in my mind and I thought that was so beautifully said.
I mean guys the mystery of the artistic journey,
The adventure of the mystery is beautifully put right and I read that and I really really really wanted to share my thoughts and opinions on it because I absolutely agree with Deafunk.
Thank you for that comment and I really really wanted to share my thoughts on it as I said.
I really really thought it was so beautiful.
Really really have to stop saying that.
Anyway the reason is because it's so true.
If we keep on kind of thinking about the future,
If we keep on thinking about where we're going and how it's going to end and what the end result is,
Then what is the fun in actually taking on the journey?
If you are writing a novel and you can predict the future right and you know that the novel is going to be an absolute crappy,
It's gonna be absolute crap,
It's not gonna be a success,
No one's gonna like it.
You're gonna publish it,
You're gonna get a publisher,
You're gonna make a little bit of money from it but no one's gonna really like it and it's not gonna be an outstanding success.
If you already knew that in advance right because you can predict the future or someone else can predict the future for you and they tell you blah blah this is gonna happen right.
Are you actually gonna write the novel now?
Are you actually going to even bother writing the novel?
No you're not.
You know you're not going to because you already know it's going to be a crap,
It's gonna be crappy and you already know that it's not gonna be a success and why would you put all your effort,
All your eggs into this basket when you know it's gonna turn out crappy?
Why?
You wouldn't do that right?
I think that's a reason this world has been created this way you know it's perfectly designed obviously and I think that's the reason the universe designed this world in this way is so that we don't know what the future is like because the universe knows,
God knows whatever word you want to use for him or her.
They know that if human beings knew where the future was going to be,
What the future is going to be,
Where they were going with everything,
They would never attempt anything unless they knew that was gonna be a success and then obviously they would do it.
But what's the fun in that as well?
You know if you if you are writing a novel for example and you know it's gonna be an absolute smashing success and it's gonna be great and everything will be perfect blah blah blah blah blah,
Would you actually take on the challenge of writing the book?
Because you already know what the end result is going to be so how boring is that?
You already know where it's going you're like okay fine it's gonna be a success yay blah blah blah.
Boring right?
Really really boring.
Why would you take that on?
You wouldn't and that's the real essence of being a human being.
We like the mystery of this world.
We really like going on these journeys.
We like,
I like doing all the different things.
I'm doing all the different projects because I have no idea where they're going.
I have no idea where these videos are going that I'm doing.
I have no idea where the podcast I'm doing is going.
I'm having fun while I'm doing it.
A lot of fun while I'm doing it.
Like literally I'm having so much fun that I can't even explain it to you guys right?
Recently I was speaking to a friend of mine and he said exactly the same thing.
He started as on a whim just for fun started doing these time lapses these videos of Toronto Sunrises right?
And he just gets up very early in the morning and he gets up around 4 or 5 and while it's still dark he goes bikes to this place where he can film the sunrise.
And so he's been doing that for a few months now he just does it every day.
He posts it on YouTube and Facebook.
He doesn't really care about where it's going.
He doesn't think about why he's doing it.
He doesn't think about you know how he's gonna monetize it.
Stupid question that everyone asks.
He doesn't think about anything like that and this is what he said to me.
He's like it's fun for now I don't know where it's going but it's fun for now so I'm gonna keep on doing it.
And I thought that was so beautiful you know very simply said and very simple thought really in his heart but I thought it was so nice because he doesn't he's not thinking about where it's going he's not thinking about why am I doing this am I doing it for a purpose is it useful should I do this or I take that he's nothing but anything he's doing it because he's enjoying it he's doing it because he's having fun with it and that's all and I think that if human beings as you know if we could just do this with everything that we do in our lives if we could just do things because they're fun if we could just have this mentality in our head that oh this is really fun I'm gonna keep on doing this and that's the only reason we do things not only would our lives be more fulfilled and fun but also I think we would have less less of that angst in our life less grief less bitterness less doubt less fear less anxiety less all of that because we're just doing things because they're fun we're not thinking about the future because we're not getting anxious we're like oh my god why am I doing this where this going I'm not not getting doubt because we're like oh my god why am I doing this you don't feel doubt because we're just doing it because it's fun all of those emotions all those negative emotions I think would dissipate or would be lessened if we just thought about fun and we just thought about what am I gonna do today what curiosity can I satisfy today what can I do that's going to be just a lot of fun now recently I've started talking to you guys about doing these comedy skits you know I really been thinking about them for a long time and I've been wanting to act in a comedy for a long long time it's one of those desires of mine that I'm gonna try and fulfill before I die and so I was like okay let me do it let me start filming my own I don't need to necessarily go on TV for it I don't need to necessarily go with a really professional camera crew for it let me just kind of use a couple of people and just do it on my own very amateur but let's do it right why does it need to be professional and so I've been talking about with you guys and it's really funny because I'm really having fun with it yeah I'm just writing out the scripts I'm talking to people about it's all just a lot of fun right but as soon as I start thinking about something else like about not the fun aspect of it but I start thinking about where is it going how am I gonna put this out there what if people think I'm an idiot what if I get rejected what if no one laughs as soon as I start thinking about anything else besides the fun part of it that's when the doubt comes in that's when the fear comes in that's when the anxiety comes in that's when I start feeling oh my god I don't what am I doing why am I doing this why I'm putting out there why am I doing that why should I do this what's the point of it and that's when I start feeling all those emotions that's when I start thinking maybe I shouldn't do it right but until I just focus on the fun aspect of it just on the mystery of it on and I don't know where it's going but it's so much fun I don't know where what am I doing I have no idea if I'm gonna be good or not but it's just so much fun as long as I focus on those thoughts as long as I focus on the adventure part of it it's just an adventure it's just an experiment that I'm running it's just a mysterious experiment so mysterious adventure that I'm going on right as long as I focus on that part of it it remains really calm my heart and I feel good about the journey I feel happy I don't feel anxious I don't feel doubtful I don't feel fear right and that's what I wanted to share with you guys I know a lot of you guys feel that fear that anxiety that that that you know the feeling that you're like I don't know what I'm doing and I don't know where this is all going what I want you guys to do is to come back to the moment and to focus on fun in the moment why are you doing it because it's fun why are you taking on this new project because it sounds like it would be fun as soon as it stops being fun perhaps you give it up or perhaps you tweak it but you focus on the fun part of it the mystery part of it the adventure part of it the experimental part of it don't focus on anything else okay I hope this makes sense again I just wanted to share this with you because I thought it was such a beautiful way to put by dear funk and and my friend he did such a great well we had such a great perspective on things and I wanted to share that with you hopefully it helps you as well in your own creative journey in your own artistic journey and your own journey and of life whatever you're doing with yourself because of any questions at all please message me anytime message me in by email by Facebook or whoever whatever really you can find to get a hold of me message me okay and I shall see you guys in the next video bye for now
