5-Bullet Friday — A Journaling Prompt I Love, The Nepali Mountain Queen, Life Wisdom from The Wizard of Westwood, and a Concept Art Reveal
|
|||
Hi All! Here is your weekly dose of 5-Bullet Friday, a list of what I’m pondering and exploring. I threw in an extra bullet for fun. Feel free to forward along if the spirit moves you. This edition is brought to you by Momentous, my go-to source for creatine. Be sure to see the offer in the P.S. What I’m listening to“Tito on Timbales” (YouTube, Spotify) by Tito Puente. Tito is a legend. I like to imagine that he freestyled for an hour and selected his favorite six minutes for this track. The man knows how to jam. Let it cleanse your mind of this week’s BS and set the stage for a homebase slide into the weekend. What I’m watchingMountain Queen: The Summits of Lhakpa Sherpa. I watched this beautiful doc after Noah Kagan recommended it and after I saw this article: Netflix just got one of the best documentaries of the year — and it’s 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. The official synopsis gives you a taste: “The first Nepali woman to summit and survive Mount Everest, Lhakpa Sherpa devoted her life to inspiring and empowering girls. Now a single mother working at a Whole Foods in Connecticut, she embarks on a dramatic return to the mountain, determined to redeem her life’s purpose and inspire her own daughters.” What I’m readingComic Book Script Archive. “The Comic Book Script Archive was founded by Tim Simmons because he couldn’t find an online resource for comic book scripts. Eventually, he decided to make one. Comics Experience is pleased to present Tim’s archive as an educational resource for those interested in comic book scripting.” What I’m excited to finally shareConcept Art. In the shadows in my top-secret lair, I’ve been working with some of my favorite artists in the world on the expansion and world-building of The Legend of COCKPUNCH. But… Question I’m asking myself frequently“How do you feel when you wake up and when you get into bed at night, and how easily do you fall asleep?” The time in bed in the morning and at night tells you all you need to know. It’s not purely intellectual reasoning. It’s not a pro-and-con list. It’s not a spreadsheet. It’s not a Venn diagram. How do you feel? Are you even aware of how you’re feeling? How much energy have you spent blocking out certain feelings because you don’t want to feel certain things? Quote I'm pondering“Things turn out best for the people who make the best of the way things turn out.” You can complement this edition of 5-Bullet Friday with my interview with leading meditation teacher Tara Brach; my conversation with legendary drummer for The Police, Stewart Copeland; and the latest supercombo podcast episode, featuring former commander of JSOC General Stanley McChrystal and World Series of Poker champion Liv Boeree.
