Reflect on your natural default setting. What is it? What can you learn from the ideas expressed in the video? Why do you think the speaker values awareness so greatly?
This speech really touched me and gave me goose bumps, this is the one video on YouTube that has made me think differently about life. My natural default setting is exactly what David Foster Wallace is teaching us what not to do. I think a big role is just being impatient. This is very interesting because I am exactly like my dad. And my mom is exactly the way that David is trying to teach us, I feel bad because I get mad at her for it but now thinking about it its a great thing that she is absolutely amazing at.
What I have learned from the ideas expressed from the video is be nice to others, look for the best in everything that is possible. He said, “maybe the fat lady just lost her husband from Lung Cancer. I know this is not probably true but it is NOT IMPOSSIBLE.” That few sentences in the video is the thing that struck me the most. That is the thing that gave me goose bumps. I never have ever thought of life in this perspective, I have never thought of what people may be going through.
I believe the author values awareness so greatly is because this is the one thing that everyone needs to work on. I have thought about this a few times in my life. It seems like we don’t realize it its just the easiest thing to get angry about. It seems like we just let our internal anger out through our thoughts.
