As a new content creator I can empathize with the editing time and the overwhelming amount of music on epidemic sounds. I appreciate the quality of your videos and enjoy the content.

Thank you! I realize I’m actually very bad at time management, which means despite having all the free time I can ask for, I’m not using it effectively to achieve my goals (posting one video per week), so just trying to learn as I go. Hopefully something in this video could help others too!

definitely…it all take a lot of “figuring it out” no matter what path we are on, and I find it so comforting that so many of us share this experience even though what we do might seem completely different on the surface. I’m very grateful for this shared experience of being human and going through life❤️

Dear Evelyn, I only recently discovered your channel and it has been so refreshing to see someone documenting their life in the way that they want to. You give me motivation to not be too scared for the things that may seem scary. I hope you can continue to pursue the paths you're currently taking and grow even more along the way. 🦋

@tapiocapress 9 ай бұрын

thank you so much🫶…I still feel scared at times (especially when it comes to admins - taxes, retirement, visas etc.), but I’ve learned to appreciate that every seemingly insurmountable task is just a challenge, and it’s so rewarding once it’s solved…all the best pursuing your paths too❤️

the pressure of work is immense! i feel the same way, but i take solace in the fact that working on something you really enjoy/love (even if that is enriching others' lives) is really _the_ point of it all. the intersection of passion and talent is a great place to be so enjoy it if you enjoy it, regardless of how many hours it consumes!

@tapiocapress 9 ай бұрын

That’s very true! Finding something we enjoy/love is already a very fortunate place to be. I’m very grateful to be able to spend as much time as I want doing what I love. At the same time I want to be intentional about spending time with people I love and nourishing the relationships in my life❤️

Just found you yesterday and yay, already a new video!! Kudos to you for taking photos on the streets of Guangzhou! I always feel shy and self-concious taking photos outside (even when I travel!!), which I shouldn't!! This is definitely something I should work on haha--plus, no one remembers after a few seconds, they move on with their lives! Also salivating at the cake and Thai (?) food you had, can't wait to explore more cafes/restaurants when I head back to Guangzhou for a short trip next month! :D When it comes to productivity, for me, it comes and goes hahahaha when I'm not lazy, I can be really productive and it goes on until the next time I slow down---when I slow down I become lazy again! Fingers crossed that the productivity tips you're implementing works out for you!! Looking forward to the next video
