“ I have less time, less tolerance for bullshit, more interest in good taste, more confidence in my own judgement. The culture with which I surround myself is a reflection of my personality and the circumstances of my life, which is in part how it should be.

Successful people wake up early…right? *Yerba maté, you’re the best. And just like that little miss “I hate morning people” became one.
How’s this for thought provoking:
I felt like this sign full on jumped off the screen and slapped me right in the face the first time I saw it. My jaw dropped and all I could think was: Fahhhhkkkkkk…Not enough. Not even close to enough. And it bothered me.
** If you did not feel the same when you saw this and started listing off meaningful game changing accomplishments in your mind, congratulations… Feels unbelievable I bet. ** Here’s me working on it, I cannot wait to get there.
As for Friday, Saturday & Sunday: Was a nice, quiet weekend spent mostly in the jamas. Did a lot of; reading, wireframing, idea writing…. & wine drinking for one. Keeping tabs & catching up.
Lesson learned.
Seems like i’ve been hitting one epiphany after the other these days & karma is seriously kicking my ass in the relationship world (well deserved). Time to be transparent.
I saw this sign on Friday:
Not only does this apply to things you make, this also applies to who you are as a person. You can’t be everything to everyone, you just can’t. Tell the truth, own your mistakes & be yourself.
I’ve noticed that the key to me staying happy is intentionally limiting my options.
Just started reading The Paradox of Choice: Why More Is Less (by Barry Schwartz) and it all makes so much sense to me. I was always about more, more, more and well… when you want something meaningful, it doesn’t really work.
I’m starting to apply this to my everyday life, especially to the information I read online. There’s so much S flying around that I wish I could ‘un-see’.. especially some ppl’s facebook/twitter status updates…never mind the photos.
And as for you, if you’re still reading this… you’ve just gone & read my very first post. I think you’re pretty neat for getting this far and over time, you might just think the same about me.
