Pay Attention To What Has Your Attention - 5-min Morning Journal #220331

-

 I see a big green plant that looks like a pod. There is a human inside the pod. It says it is not human. Then it says it may once be a human. This pod has a green stem or tail and it is swimming around in the air. 

"Green Pod with a human inside swimming in the air"
Instead of using AI, I manually drew this using Google Keep.

======== end of dream.


What did you dream of last night? Does it solve a problem?

See above.

The feeling is unsettling.  


What happened yesterday?

  • Wasted 2 hours researching tiktok but couldn't find a trend. 

  • Tested secret YM recording playback again. 

  • Activated new Citibank Credit Card.

  • Replied Jara on IG... hi adrian, how will u rate lensgo with rode in the wireless mic comparison?... https://www.videolane.com/lensgo/

  • Created and posted Lensgo review Shorts... https://youtube.com/shorts/9EwXoaYqw94?feature=share

  • Turned down my favourite annual videography assignment and not feeling guilty.  Time to move on into my 60s. 




What worked? Why?

  • Created a Lensgo review Shorts in less than 2 hours including posting to reels. Script was written. Studio was set.  Skipped lunch.  Just did it. 

What did not work? Why? 

  • Too little done. Feeling demotivated after a late lunch. 


What did you learn?

  • I can make a Shorts in less than 2 hours if I have my gear ready and the script researched. 

🌞What can be done better today?

  • Relax.  Make 2 Shorts. 


What will stop me? How to overcome? 

  • Amin chores.  Dew it.

Ps:

🐞 Is today a WEEKEND (Fri, Sat, Sun)? Don't start anything; clean up what I started. Successful people spend family time, Me-time, clear clutter, and strategize the week.

Macbook Air M1 Case

I bought a transparent case for my MacBook Air M1 . It came with a free screen protector, a keyboard cover, and some rubber plugs to cover the ports. Check it out! https://youtu.be/d-wALSd3nn8 I didn't expect the rubber plugs. It was a nice surprise. The case fits snuggly, with access to all the ports. The keyboard cover is almost invisible to the eye. I have no intention to use the screen protector. Why? I need to see the true color of the display for my YouTube videos. ~ Adrian Lee  @Adrian Video Image  The video was recorded on iPhone 12 Pro Max with Filmic Pro app in 4K 60fps and edited with Capcut.
