Learning Without Effort .:. Walk & Talk Series

The issue with these Walk and Talk videos is that I need some time to edit them, and I always take a "bit" more time to write this description... And usually, instead of writing a short description, I finish with a long, "additional" post-description... In the end, I finished having two posts in one (video + text)... 😃 For doing that, I "blame" the time that I took to write a description... If I did it fast, right away after recording the video, it would be short and simple... When I take more time, I get additional ideas about the video, that I didn't say and I want to "enrich" the post by adding that too! That happened this time... again...

In the video, I was talking about the chat that I had with a friend regarding his idea, and our potential collaboration, which unfortunately didn't happen in the end... But, it doesn't matter, we had a different point of view about the same thing and that's okay... Next time will be better...

I have probably "overthink" (who would say that?! 😱😂) as he had an idea of how to make things "simpler" for others, and I had a different view... Do things always have to be simple? Do we need all those things in our homes "that make our life easier"? Doesn't that create an opposite effect? Make us lazier, not willing to make an effort as someone else, or something else, will do the job for us?

I was watching a YouTube video where the author was presenting a crypto project where you get paid for watching videos and in one moment he said how the project is better than any other move2earn program as people "sit and watch YT videos more than walking"... Unfortunately, that's true... Why would we walk when we can use all those super products that help us to go from point A to point B, cars, motorcycles, electric bikes, scooters...

But, we humans are like that... If we can pick ways to do things, we will ALWAYS pick the easiest way, regardless of the "price" that we have to pay in the end... Walking is for poor people... I have a CAR! That reminded me of my school days when I had an Electronics class and the teacher said Electricity goes where there is no resistance... It is the same with us humans... You can easily spot that in children, but adults aren't much better...

I had another great example yesterday, in my home... The kitchen sink was clogged and the first thing that came to my wife's mind was to buy that liquid for unclogging sinks... That was the easiest way to solve the issue... Someone else has created an "ultra-great liquid" that will solve all your clogging issues... :) I went to the bathroom, found the good old vacuum plunger, and unclogged the sink in 10 seconds... That was an even simpler solution than using the liquid... It was cheaper, and I did it! Not a liquid! 😂 I mean, the example is ridiculous, but when you do even such a simple thing, with your own two hands, you get a self-esteem boost that can help you to overcome some much-complicated issues that can arise...

Thank you for your time,
