Based Istanbul TV: I’M (NOT) FOR EVERYONE AND THAT’S GREAT w/ Nilperi Şahinkaya

There’s a belief that dreams foretell the future. Dreams guide us by presenting the fulfilled versions of our desires. However, the dreamer can get lost in this illusion that they perceive as real. To dream is an act of the spirit. The defining characteristic of victory is that it hides among the person’s desires. 

There is no such thing as a mistake, 

No such thing as losing,

To go on is to win.

The goal of happiness that is imposed on us by the feeling of pleasure is not an achievable goal. We can’t give up on our efforts to achieve this goal, one way or another. If you want victory, you need to be ready for war. No fear. No escape. This is the rule of staying in the game: Not giving up.
