Watching this talk, I was overwhelmed by his level of enthusiasm despite the fact that he confessed at the beginning of the show that he does not sleep much. I have a pretty weird body clock so I tend to sleep late and wake up early for classes but throughout the day, I get very cranky.
Hearing him talk on stage is almost like talking to my best friend. He told us so many things I never thought famous people did, such as following people in his neighbourhood because they look interesting. He kept jumping from topic to topic, like how your friend would if they haven't met you in a long time and they had a lot of updates. But then I realized that him being so random meant that his brain was actually jumping from ideas to ideas all the time which made him such a creative person. It was like his brain was moving faster than his mouth could.
However, along the talk, the pattern became pretty obvious... He found something interesting and then he had a reaction(that was funny). I understood that that was the key to a happy and creative life but hearing his numerous examples became a little monotonous after a while. However, there are some agreeable parts, such as "The best ideas come when you are falling asleep." and "You always have to be slightly bored with everything. And if you're not, you have to pretend to be slightly bored with everything."
