Something I suffered from in the past was trying to make everything perfect, getting the right tools, new camera, new this and that and the how-to​ tips so that your content can stand out or at least have the opportunity to until I realized​ all those things don't matter and most importantly, they don't align with my goals.

You don't need much to get your posts, your ideas, and thoughts out there.

If you're a professional photography or videographer or aspiring to become one then go for it but if you're just a regular Joe or Jane, keep it simple.

Let me visually take you through my visit to Man Mo Temple.

Man Mo - the two words represent God of Literature and God of War respectively.

In modern times, I learned students would come here to pray for success in their tests, I did not see any myself but that's what I learned.

During the British rule over Hong Kong, the locals would bring their unsolved dispute in the British courts here to do things their way - writing an agreement, sealing the deal with the blood of a ​chicken.

Back to why I wrote this post.

The unedited images in this post were captured using nothing but my phone.

It was a pleasant experience walking around and taking everything in.

I will leave you with these;

  • Use what you have to get started - applies to content creation as well as in life.

  • Don't get seduced into buying this and that gear - everyone is a power seller these days.

  • Less is more, Declutter your life - This is my process right now and I'm still learning.

  • If you intend to stay longer on your visit to Man Mo, make plans. You and the incense will become one :)).
