Dilemma of going park (high risk high reward) vs home (safe, comfortable option)
-
I go park, Felix ignores me so I decided to become like the people around me. I sleep in the grass and just reflect and try to think like all these other ppl. In the hopes that is be able to discover something that will help me get past the resistance of interviewing people.

After my most social train ride back home, I arrive at my station. In there I see a (presumably Arab man) that had a Nike backpack that said something along the lines of “shoot my air”. I felt like the dude knew what he was trying to achieve with that quote so I wanted to talk to him bout it to bond over it, but I waited for too long and simply put it up to chance (50% chance) that he would walk out the same way as I did but no. I felt HELLA shitty afterwards coz it would’ve been soo cool if I got to bond with him over that.
-
So, because now I felt the negative effects of not doing the thing I felt like doing, my motivation to do the next thing reached it’s peak.
-
The next opportunity came up 5 seconds later where I saw a lady move the tables back into the store coz it’s closing. My default behavior was to obviously lend a hand and carry a table back but as she saw me do that she stopped me and started talking in German.
-
she thought I wanted to eat something from their restaurant but then I explained myself and she smiled and thanked me
thoughts
- though I wasn’t able to help her, that was never the goal. I wanted to form a connection with her and that’s exactly what I did
- I hope that inspires her to do some good in life
