    With the goal section in 2:25, I disagree with what Steven Fry says. I feel that goals are important and encourages us to work harder to reach accomplishment of the soul. But, it is refreshing to listen to someone speak about how goals are probably not the best way to live by, even when they accomplished quite a bit. Perhaps without goals, the self imposing pressure is let go. With goals, some people tend to try so hard to accomplish it, that they become unhappy with their achievement since they expect more. If goals did not exist and we become carefree, would we accomplish more though? Maybe without the stress of being "perfect", we would reach success...
    Also, the section on talking about oneself seems interesting. It is intriguing to notice that when someone brings something new to the plate in a conversation or in fact when the conversation actually advantages to us, how interested we become in it.
    I agree that unsuccessful people have bigger egos than successful people. With succsessful people, they feel that they do not need to brag in order to be noticed, since they ARE successful.

To create this animation, I might use a white board, use Photoshop and/ or do something with art materials. I also was able to brainstorm a list of " I believe" beliefs
