It’s about putting in those hours, getting started with those hours, which is how the procrastination becomes a barrier to getting going. And that doesn’t like, well, I can’t get started until I’ve done my 10,000 hours. You need to know what the hell you’re doing. You need motivation, you need some degree of competence or a road to competence. And what you need is you need inspiration. I think the key trap here too, is thinking that what you really need is money, that whatever you need is something you can buy when that is really the deepest policy of all. And you just got to be careful not to fall in the trap. So that’s kind of what this whole essay is about. So it’s more about your eye and lighting and all that other stuff, but still even not about lighting, it’s about your eye. It can make it better, but you can still take a great picture with any camera. It’s not a, I mean, yeah, there is some part about it that’s the camera, but that’s not really, It’s like, no, you can take a great picture with anything. Like, well, I can’t take a good picture unless I have a Leica or whatever. And it becomes an increasing list as you procrastinate further, the list gets bigger and sometimes it’s like with photography’s a good example. I can’t start my thing until I fulfill this arbitrary checklist of shit I need. It’s like common, normal, natural, but it’s a good thing to fight against because it’s not about the gear. Like there’s all these things that like, well, I don’t have, so I can’t. This mic that I have is not quality enough to start my podcast. I don’t have a good enough, my laptop isn’t fast enough. This is typically a story of procrastination and it’s natural and normal, but it’s like, I don’t have enough of X, Y, or Z to do what I need to do.
