‪There are the people we want ourselves to be, and then there are the people we actually are: sometimes it is easier to be the people we want ourselves to be if we keep at least somethings to ourselves ‬

Alexander McCall Smith

[wordsnquotes]

You cannot convince people to love you. This is an absolute rule. No one will ever give you love because you want him or her to give it. Real love moves freely in both directions. Don’t waste your time on anything else.

Cheryl Strayed, Tiny Beautiful Things (via wordsnquotes)

… we are there with our cameras to record reality. Once we start modifying that which exists, we are robbing photography of its most valuable attribute.

Of course, there will always be those who look only at technique, who ask ‘how’, while others of a more curious nature will ask ‘why’. Personally, I have always preferred inspiration to information.

Man Ray

To photograph is to hold one’s breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It’s at that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy.

Henri Cartier-Bresson

It’s about reacting to what you see, hopefully without preconception. You can find pictures anywhere. It’s simply a matter of noticing things and organising them. You just have to care about what’s around you and have a concern with humanity and the human comedy.

“To me, photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting in an ordinary place… I’ve found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.”

Elliott Erwitt

You become things, you become an atmosphere, and if you become it, which means you incorporate it within you, you can also give it back. You can put this feeling into a picture. A painter can do it. And a musician can do it and I think a photographer can do that too and that I would call the dreaming with open eyes.

what Fiverr represents is essentially a new form of economic growth where connectivity is the form of infrastructure that has replaced roads in some ways in allowing for that growth to actually happen. Where people are no longer tied to geography, in terms of their livelihoods. But for a long time development agencies have actually focused on how do we actually help people in the places that they are. This isn't necessarily true anymore if you are connected and there is a reason that people are getting connected

Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn’t matter to me. Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful, that’s what matters to me.

People work better when they know what the goal is and why. It is important that people look forward to coming to work in the morning and enjoy working.

Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work.

Steve Jobs

You have to know yourself. Seek to discover what you’re inherently created to do. What do you do that makes you lose track of time? What would you spend your time doing even if no one paid you to do it? Look for the crossroads between the skills you enjoy using and the ones people will pay you for. How can you turn those skills into profit or a business? Seek answers, and then settle in. Because the next step is to persevere like crazy.

People want to follow a passionate leader. Someone who cares about not only the cause for which he or she is working, but also the other people who are involved in the effort. Passion for the projects, for the company and for the people involved are key to successful leadership.
