The Rocco Effect - Idea Muscle

Everywhere you go, everything you see, every problem you confront, you will instantly be able to react to every situation that stands in your path.  You will be like Spiderman with his spider sense that instantly reacts and knows what to do even before the problem surfaces. ― James Altucher 


The Rocco Effect - Idea Muscle

We all face obstacles, daily.  These obstacles can lead to fear, anger and depression if we see no way through them. But how would we feel if we could see, multiple ways through them?  A lot better, right?  Just like a swimmer isn't afraid of water, a You can train to not be afraid of obstacles   So, how do we train?

By writing out 10 ideas (solutions to problems), each day.  For example - How can I improve this room?  How can i make someone smile today? What designs could I sell?  By pushing yourself to think of 10 you train yourself to look for solutions that aren't obvious.  Which prepares you to find better solutions when you are faced with real problems.  Being prepared keeps us calm, happy and courageous. 


Task

Each day write an ideas list for one of these questions

1. What could I stop doing in order to improve my life?
2. How can I avoid becoming homeless?
3. How could I make $10 today?
4. How can i improve 1 room in my house?
5. How can I get/improve my love life?


This lesson comes from James Altuchers book - Choose Yourself.

Bonus - Everything is on loan

Everything is on loan.   Our possessions, our friends, family, even our own lives.  If we're lucky the loan is repaid after we die, but we've all had loans retuned before we where ready or worse, before we were aware it was a loan. Whenever you are in a state of truly loving life remind yourself 'This is all on loan.'  Be grateful and take in all you can, cause one day, memories is all you'll have left.

My Animation Process (Honours - Game Scene)

I just want to show you how much effort i actually put into an animation. And who knows maybe you just might learn something from it all. 1st of the line test.  This helps me picture whats going to happen and lets me test out wether the animations work or not.  Also alot easier to make changes at this stage as its so basic. I then move on to a fleshed out version.  Basically the final version without the details.  This allows me to see how the final version will look and allows me to make any changes before the final version, were it will be much harder to change as there is a-lot more detail in it. I then add some basic colours to show me how it looks coloured.  This allows me to see what changes need to be made to the outlines. And finally the final version.  Cleaned up lines and the final colours.  I wish i had more time to spend on the lines and th...
