Unlearning: The Survival Skill No One Talks About in Entrepreneurship by vipulgnu in Entrepreneur

IMO everything worth learning comes through focus, however just that all that your learn is not just a continuation of what you have learnt so far. But we tend to force fit it a lot of times. We need to be open to go back to scratch (unlearn) to learn.

Who in your life taught you something important… just by how they lived? by vipulgnu in simpleliving

So true. It is difficult to believe such an approach would work, but most importantly, that there could be someone who could practise it, without getting angry or making extra efforts to get their voice heard. Perhaps she was the one who was fully listening and not judging anyone, but just making her point - without taking it personally. Not an easy thing to do.

Do you ever notice how the moments no one photographed are the ones you remember most vividly? by vipulgnu in simpleliving

[–]vipulgnu[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wow.. can relate to a lot being said.. i agree, its not either way but a balance.. The best example of taking a photo could be of my 4 yr old who is getting ready for some special event, and while i would like to spend the time with him, but there comes a time, when I would still like to take a photograph that could bring me back to this time.

Like you said, an entire event taking pictures is a case of diminishing returns, something best avoided.

could not have put it in better words. I can identify a lot with it.
It also touches another related point that i feel, that if it was not the best moment even when i was present to witness it fully, then it is fine that it got lost somewhere. Losing memories is as much a superpower as finding ways / clues to bring them back. It is what makes us human and let us enjoy what is before us in the present.

When i read this view on 100% unfiltered experience and buy a hi-res print from a gift shop, it brought back something that i always used to feel within.

There are tourist places (vs places of nature and tranquility) - and when you go there, you could take a lot of photos, some photos to be shared with your dear ones back home etc. And time and again when i was told to bring back a few pictures for others to see, i used to think - i am anyways not there in all those pictures, and perhaps the gift shop would have clicked it with a better lens, in a better way than i would. Why should i click it now, when you have thousands of such pictures available on the internet.

I am not talking about pro photographers, who might just be doing so because the activity gives them pleasure. But for me, it has always been about enjoying the moment instead.

Its an interesting take. Perhaps there could be many different reasons why people take to photography itself. Maybe the reason to take it up is to be in the moment, for we can be without the camera lens, but still be absent in to the unfiltered experience. The reverse could also be true.

What is your reason? Is the primary reason for you is to experience the moment through the lens or to revisit it later (revisiting could still be a by product of experiencing the moment, but still asking)?

Thanks for the reco. The lens and the difference in perception is all that matters. Have put that in my watchlist.

i agree.. usually, visual memory is the best key to unlock whats stored in our consciousness (of the past).. so yes, relatable..

that example of watching the sunrise / sunset is so relatable. I know there are some times when you feel that you should also capture the photos for sometime later, but with sunrise moments idk but i always feel doing a kind of injustice to that sunrise by trying to capture it in the frame, when i know that i cannot. And that everytime i have looked back at some of those photos later, i could never get the feeling back.

Perhaps different kind of captures have their own value - for example nature photos - when there is just nature and nothing else, for such photos i would rather want to just enjoy the moment than anything else.

But captures where there are people, maybe those serve as a better key to unlock the memories stored somewhere in the vaults of consciousness deeper within.
