enjoying life

Sometimes, the juggling act of of career development, productivity, creative fulfillment, and/or family feels like it needs a reframing.

This slow motion video of juggling from above shows just how little motion is in the person.

Juggling, from the usual angle, looks like a very hectic endeavor — balls and clubs and hands flying everywhere. But if you get an overhead view, as in this video from Taylor Glenn, you can see that often there’s very little movement in two of the three dimensions. The mastery of these small movements combined with the sweeping up-and-down motions creates a compelling illusion for ground-based viewers. The power of a different perspective.
