I tried to be more like this. It's way more expensive yet looks way less expensive and takes a long time to accumulate extra parts and pieces. When I need a shelf I have two options. 1 wait until I have scrap or 2 go buy what I need. I am not going to pay for scrap so my shelves end up looking store-bought or are store-bought. My workshop has a mix of spirited man and amazon man (the ladder being bought online not a manly man from the Amazon). Lastly, I realized that I had to be who I am. Buying everything from the store doesn't work either. Some things need to be custom-built. So, I have a good mix haha.

This gets at the heart of what being a grown ass man is all about. Also, if you are asking yourself "is what I'm doing harming others," it's a pretty good indication that you are an alright guy. That question is equally as important as, "Am I being mislead?" or better yet ,"Is my understanding of the truth flawed?" Because to answer the first question accurately, you must have a firm grasp on what is True.

Ain't nobody got time for regular sticky Post-Its. I wrap them around all my various gear cables for labelling, and stick each to itself, eg... "headlamp charging cable", "GoPro charging cable", etc. The super sticky's will become tattered, crinkled and almost illegible after years of use before they let go, unlike the others which fall off after a couple of days, so I appreciate that level of detail. I'm a detail oriented person too, though it was beginning to affect me personally. That was until I heard a really great quote... "sometimes you just gotta stop polishing the glass, and enjoy the view out the window" :)

Caraga is named after the Kalagan people (Spanish "Caragan"), a Mansakan subgroup (related to Visayans) native to the regions of Davao and parts of Caraga who speak the Kalagan languages. The name itself is from kalagan (literally "[strong] spirited") which means "fierce" or "brave"; from kalag ("spirit" or "soul") in the native animistic anito religions. Hence, the whole Provincia de Caraga of AD 1622 was called region de gente animosa, that is "region of spirited folk".

Upon watching "We Are in a 4th Turning," I thought, the production value and style are awesome. I looked at his name and thought, "Wait a minute. I know this name." It all made sense from there. Three videos in, and I'm hooked. I like the real world sensibility, as opposed to the digital world.

Your stories are really moving in the best and simplest way ever. Not sure how to explain it but they are a highlight everytime.

Read this spirited comment... This is why there are over 200 watches in inventory but only a small fraction are listed on the site. The details of the photoshoots, editing the dust, waiting for the perfect natural lighting. It's why it takes over an hour to meticulously pack an order and drive to hand deliver the package to UPS, USPS or FedEx to ensure it's handed directly to them and scanned in with a drop off receipt. It's why a customer has called this spirited watch store the "Brinks Truck" of watch packaging. It's why there are hundreds of videos of watches and watch movements, hundreds of gigabytes, on several hard drives that don't get edited and uploaded because the details and perfection matter and editing an 8 minute video will consume 8 hours, not counting uploading and deleting 3 times after noticing a color balance shift or something else that no one else will notice. It's why there are dozens of watch reviews written and not published because they "aren't ready" yet. The watch movement database site this spirited watch store owner built has a hundred movements not yet published because this spirited content creator refuses to copy and paste or scrape the web, and must verify each spec. It's why this spirited watch site is perfectly lined up to the pixel, and customized to be different than other websites, but it's slow to have new content. It's why this spirited watch shop and KZfaq channel is loved by its customers and subscribers but its customers and subscribers get tired of asking for more products to buy and videos to watch. It's why this spirited watch KZfaq channel started in 2008 but only has 32k subscribers. Maybe its detail fetish is why this spirited watch store/blog is still here after 13 years, or maybe it's a result of stubbornness or a control freak thing. It's why this spirited watch store has a hard time dealing used watches, because this spirited watch seller wants everything to be perfect but used watches by their nature are not perfect, that's what makes them perfect. This spirited creator is drained from working so hard to make other watch brands look good for a one off sale, which is why this spirited man has been told it's time to put all the spirited man labor into creating a new spirited brand. It's why this spirited comment will be posted with one short phrase then edited to paste the full comment then edited 5 more times after that.

This Spirited Man understands these compulsions and does not think that they are strange at all. One Spirited Man's OCD is another's way to make a place for himself in the vast chaos.

I love how he had just explained how the mind of a designer works. Greatjob describing the details. It was very organized storytelling. Can’t wait for him to endorse products, he describes so so well...or maybe this video is already a paid ad?🙂 if it is, glad for him. So inspiring spirited man.

My grandfather, an accomplished inventor and patent holder, used those pencils. I have two of his on my desk. I think of him when I use them, and also when I'm not using them.

Help! I can’t like this video enough times. I’m very tired (I work nights) so more emotional but the last minute had me going from tears with the picture of his partner and kid to gleeful laughter with the reveal of the TOYOTA badge on the Tacoma. Just pure glee in how good it looks and the expression on Van’s face...Perfect.
