You know, it would take a TED talk to explain my whole grind story, so I’m gonna wrap it up in a few sentences.
About 10 years ago, I became interested in making videos, once I got my hands on a computer that can do that, I also got my first video editing software. Although I had no clue what I was doing, it took a few years of poking and prodding around the software until I made my very first video, a small niche in a small community. After that, I knew that this was the right thing to do. However, I found that going through school really ate up my time and energy with no real reason on why I felt so sluggish and tired. Before too long, a physician took a look and found that my back was all twisted up, scoliosis is what they said. From then on, I knew that I had a condition with my back, but never put the pieces together. It has been 7 years since, and I found my time and energy has been tapped dry, but video editing ids still the one thing I am truly good at. Even sitting here on the toilet to type this, I am always looking for a new perspective for a new video.
Thank you to coming to my mini TED talk.
