First of all I don’t believe in “white” people. This makes no sense. I’m actually more pale and more “white” in skin tone than many Caucasian people (the more accurate term for a “white” person) as a Korean. So when I talk about “white washing”, what do I mean? I mean it is like applying bleach to anything which is saucy, interesting, enjoysome and “racy” and “inappropriate” in life to make it acceptable and “wholesome” to essentially placate over-protective parents, paternalistic members of the

Change.

ERIC KIM ·

2020/09/15

Why is change so scary and difficult? Why are we so reticent to change? My thoughts: https://erickimphotography.com/blog/2020/09/15/change-2/ To change things or to change ourselves means: I must take some sort of real life risk and have some sort of ‘skin in the game’ in regards to my personal actions in embodied reality. It is safer to complain. Talk is cheap. Action is expensive. Expensive meaning: If you fuck up in real life, there are real consequences. However when you just complain, there is

ERIC KIM ·

2020/09/09

Would you mix a $10,000 bottle of wine with water? Of course not. So why water down your thoughts, your being and your own soul? THE COURAGE TO DECIDE.

DECIDE.

ERIC KIM ·

2020/09/08

CREATE BEYOND YOURSELF

ERIC KIM ·

On Leaving a Legacy

ERIC KIM ·

2020/09/06

WHY JOBS?

ERIC KIM ·

2020/09/06

Of course we need jobs to pay rent, feed ourselves, etc .. but with today's brave new COVID world, what is really the purpose of a job? For example for a lot of people, a job is their external identity and sense of self. For others it is a monetary thing; they have too much debt (debt is the devil) and cannot afford *NOT* to work (they are dependent on their job to pay off their bills, credit card debt, mortgage, additions to their house, car payments, etc).

BUILD YOUR OWN EMPIRE OF YOURSELF.

ERIC KIM ·

2020/09/05

You are the platform. You are the end goal. The goal ain’t to build some external empire in quick sand. No. The end goal is for you to build your own personal self to the max. More: https://erickimphotography.com/blog/2020/09/05/build-your-own-empire-of-yourself/

Energy Vampires

ERIC KIM ·

2020/09/02

READ > ENERGY VAMPIRES: people who TAKE and sap away more energy than they give you. Let us not be fooled: our energy (and life) is limited. Therefore be very very very very very choosy on who you decide to give your energy to (or not):

Individual Economics

ERIC KIM ·

2020/08/31

An individualistic economics perspective: Don’t worry about world global and macro economics. Focus on your individual economics. Let us remember the first notion of “economics” is actually regarding home economics (Aristotle on Home Economics [Greek is Οἰκονομικά and Latin is Oeconomica]). “Oikos” as referring to “home”. Also Hesiod on home economics (Works and Days, and his theories on household management— like starting your own farm, getting a woman maid, getting an ox, etc). How to manage
