1) When and where was this incredible photo taken?

On a cold February day in 2019. In the garden of a carpet store in Cappadocia, Turkey. 

2) What drew you to this location?

The couple was from China and are super interested in Turkish carpets and I found this place. The backyard of the shop was covered with carpets and rugs, and the image suited the couple’s wishes very well. It just had to be photographed in an extraordinary way.

3) What technical challenges did you have taking this shot? 

Technically it was an easy shoot for me. After shooting with my DSLR camera, I thought it would work to shoot with a drone in this square garden. I rose high enough to shoot the couple and the rugs. Towards the end of the shoot, I got higher and saw the bricks on the roof. I guess, the contrast of the couple with the carpets and brick texture made this photo unique.

It’s about efficiency.

This letter is about productivity more than anything else. People use tools for efficiencies while I use emotions, perspective, and insight. It’s because a lack of fear makes you more productive. You need to have a tremendous relationship with time and understand that in order to make progress you must not fear ideation. Productivity doesn’t have to be Slack or any other app. Some people are like me and I’m not a literal, productive person. I’m a theoretical, emotionally productive person. I’ve never mentioned or admitted that to myself. 

You can do so many things if you are always in “smoke” mode. There’s one idea and then there’s another idea. Don’t be afraid to ideate and create. That’s where I’m going with this theory.

Hey VaynerNation,

 I’m turning forty-five today. With that in mind, I’ve started to really think about the next forty-five years, because ninety feels about right for me to hang up my jersey. For the first time in my brain, I’m picturing life after ninety and I can imagine life would be different afterward.

That being said, I’ll probably work well into my eighties. So what does that mean? If I retire at ninety then forty-five is halftime, right? It’s such an interesting age for me, it feels like I’m walking back into the field after halftime this Saturday. 

And that makes me feel incredible. 

I feel forty-five to fifty is when I’m at my most powerful. If this analogy plays out, the next half-decade may end up being the greatest part of my decade. They’re going to be my half time adjustments. I’ve been feeling it…I feel like I am sensing smoke. I feel like forty-three to forty-five has all been one big game of halftime adjustments. I’ve become more self aware, more aware of my shortcomings, more willing to talk about shit, dirt, and how it all relates to the process.
