Hello everyone!
I’m excited to share the first video in a series entitled ‘The Heart Asks’. This series tells the story of how I came to establish Ellipsis Wellbeing – the venture that is now my life’s work.
This video is a short autobiography that describes my aims for this project and hopefully serves as an introduction for what follows. This short film explores what I learned from my life’s journey, which I feel touches on some significant aspects of modern life.
But the reason we pursue money is to enable us to do what we want. So, in one sense, life requires us to find a balance between earning a living and doing what we love.
I mention this because when I was in my early twenties, despite my immaturity, I had the work-life balance perfect. My job was just a means to an end. Outside of work I devoted all my energy to things which brought me fulfilment – making music and films, as well as enjoying myself having fun with my friends.
But as the years rolled by, I was taken with the (quite reasonable) assumption that more money was going to bring me more fulfilment. And so, I invested more energy into my pursuit of money, at the expense of what mattered to me.
I got it wrong – big time.
This film shows how and hopefully offers some insight into what life is all about. I hope you enjoy it - Thank you!
