Morning Thoughts Series - Inspiration found on Instagram

 

The other day I was going through my newsfeed and came across a video by 'itsdanielmac' on Instagram. If you don't know who Daniel is, he is an American content creator who asks people driving luxury cars what do they do for a living. His posts are followed by many as they give an insight into what career choices have earned them such luxurious cars. The brief interactions almost always give the career choices those luxury car owners have made and sometimes the viewers and Daniel end up getting one-liner masterclasses. 

In one such instance Daniel approached a luxury car owner who was wearing a mask, upon being asked the question what does he do for a living, the man pulled down his mask revealing his face and answered: "I am Jason Derulo.. for a living". Jason Derulo is an American songwriter and singer, who then recognised Daniel and told him that he likes Daniel's videos. The interaction might have been a surprise for Daniel, however, Jason's response left me contemplating on different planes. 

How passionate and committed one should be towards one's calling to reach a point in life where one's name is enough introduction. Jason has certainly inspired me to be what I am and stay true to myself with his response; with a heartfelt thanks to both Daniel and Jason, I began my day more resolute than ever.
