My take on the Jesse Reno Talk


I spent a goodly afternoon the other day, listening to podcasts and stuff.  One thing I found inspiring was discovering Derek Sivers.  He has this thing where he reads a book and underlines things that stand out as meaningful as he goes, then goes back and types up those notes, and keeps these as a record of what he learned from each book.  I like that. I read a lot of books and often write notes, but they are all dispersed and unfindable again.  I am not sure I will type them up in text files a la Sivers.  but maybe I could do it here.

So the next inspiring thing I cam across was a talk by Jesse Reno.  I haven't quite got to the end of it and I don't have time just now.  But I did write some notes.  I don't' think I can embed the video but here is the link.  I love his energy so MUCH! 

Here are my notes.  am making no apologies for there jus tbein random words and phrases.

devotions
tapping into your deeply rooted humanity
something to share
lessons about building a life
trust yourself
get back to your roots
get excited
have multiple points of reference

find what you like in your poress, make things personal.  choose things that are fun
I dont know.  I never know.  Its ok not to know

do FUN THINGS

paint with your hands, you'll expect nothing of yourself and everything will turn out much better than you thought.
I expect to make a mistake
paint over everything you don't like
I have a crazy experience
I just found it super theraputic
circles blobs whatever
I want that ENGAGEMENT
100 paintings
you gotta take the opportunities
I FELT it.  Engage with the emotional context.  Make people feel.  Art makes people feel. Feel it. 

I let the negative motivate me, I let the positive motivate me

take notes as I paint.  I am so lot, I don't know.  Its ego free, super ego free,

Do something unbelieveable, something unimaginable and people pay attention,

go beyond imagination. I could tell you were serious.  Believe BEYOND RIGHT NOW.

You don't know what's going on.
