Boredom is our Superpower
It's hard to admit. A quick raise of hands, who ever spends time flipping through the home screen on your phone like something new will show up (*raises hand in shame*). Why? I've spent 5 hours and 11 minutes on my phone today. It's a mix of YouTube, Messages, Safari, Amazon, and Instagram. How much of that time added value to my life? If I were to take a hard guess, it would be near an hour to an hour and a half. Remember, this is just my phone. I'm a filmmaker and spend countless hours editing, writing, and just doing work in front of a screen. But this article isn't about screen time. No sir. This is about a modern day deficiency: Boredom.

Mistakes Pursuing my Passion
Success is a funny thing, and at some point in our lives, it seems we're all striving for it. I'm a filmmaker. I've been one since I was a kid, making Lego animations in my basement with my friends. At that point in my life I didn't think I'd be a filmmaker, it was only a hope.
