Summary
In life, we struggle to find meaning and purpose as it feels like we are going nowhere and chasing a shiny object after another. This is why we created the "Pursuing Our Own Paths" Podcast to document our journey as two individuals who decided to go away from the conventional path. James being an ex-high paying engineer at a well-known US firm to becoming an esports personality and entrepreneur. Ervin going from a normal student to failing two businesses and finally succeeding in his third business - freelance copywriting. Today's episode is a wild card where we talk about something that you probably might have watched before but never thought it could teach you life lessons. Listen on to find out what we mean! Fun points we talked about in this episode: 1) What are we going to talk about today. This is something that has taken the world by storm and even Americans are getting in on this. (Hint: It's kinda like the Netflix of Japan) 2) What is the difference between cartoons and this kind of show that is like the "Netflix of Japan." (Ervin was so crazy over this at 14 years old that he would drag his whole family into the shop to practice Japanese with the shop owner) 3) In the Avengers Movie: Infinity War, everybody knew how close Iron Man and Peter Parker was because he looked up to Iron Man as a role model. Check out this show where the protagonist shares the same relationship with the "Superman" of this show as it teaches you how to overcome all obstacles to get what you want in life. 4) If you think the Avengers: Infinity War fight scenes were pretty crazy, you should check out this fight scene. (06:00) 5) One of the most famous movies directed by Michael Bay is none other than Transformers. However, wait till you watch the Japanese version of Transformers instead. (Hint: The story starts off with two orphans climbing to become the kings of the country. How cool is that?) 6) If you thought that your Netflix show or sitcom was long, wait till you watch this show. Ervin watched over a thousand episodes and he's still raving about this show till today. There's a good chance you heard or even watched this show yourself! (Hint: It has something to do with ninjas) Listen to the rest of the episode to find out the other shows, Iet's not spoil this any further :) Connect with Ervin here: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kaizencopywriting/ Subscribe to the Freelance Copywriter Lifestyle Newsletter: https://kaizencopywriter.com/ Connect with James here: Twitter: https://twitter.com/ELolwr?s=08 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jlgsoon
