When the free wifi on your airplane doesn’t work

I took a bunch of notes the other night about following one’s bliss and moving towards one’s dream. For the life of me, I can’t remember what source(s) the notes are from, but I just re-read them this morning. Amongst them was the directive, “watch video: Everything’s Amazing, Nobody’s Happy.” Turns out it’s a 4-minute clip of comedian Louis C.K. from a Conan O’Brien show that aired on October 1, 2008. NBC has removed the official clip, but you can still find it online.

Louis provides some perspective on how much we take technology for granted these days. And he perhaps offers us the gift of lightening up and being less stressed—something to remember the next time we’re feeling peeved about something we should maybe feel less entitled to and more appreciative of.

Everything’s Amazing. Nobody’s happy (A brief blurb about the segment written by Louis C.K. himself.)
