Thank You, I Try (Patreon)

Hi everybody,

I have travelled to Riga, Latvia, the city where I was born, to speak at a TEDx conference. When I was invited, I felt out of my depth, but agreed to do it anyway. I've worked hard to put together a strange little talk during the past few weeks and the whole time, I've teetered between having a lot of confidence in it and thinking it's complete trash and I have nothing coherent to say...

Right now, 2 days out from the event and thousands of miles away from any resources to change my talk's visuals, I'm kind of in the latter state of mind. I think there are some major flaws in my presentation and I'm not sure I'll be able to fix them. If I do, there's no time to practice performing the changes. I have no idea how it's gonna go...

But then I think about the fact that I was only invited here in the first place because of what I do. And what I do is only made possible by your generous support. I don't say it enough, but since it's Patreon's "Thank You Patrons" day, let me say thank you so much for hanging around and helping me make videos!

Can't wait to return home and get back to it.
