The Late 1900s

What’s the oldest things you’re wearing today?

So, this sweatshirt here is vintage turn-of-the-century. Very comfortable. Very durable. You see these fibres? They were built to last. Have a look. Feel that? This sweatshirt has been washed a gajillion times and it’s still fantastic quality. Amazing, right?

Yeah, they don’t make them like this anymore.

slow down

What’s one small improvement you can make in your life?

Breathe.
That email can wait. Yes, it can.
Take real breaks.

Put your phone away at least one hour before you go to bed.

Slow down.
Enjoy the little things.
Make good moments.

Time is the one thing you will not get back again.

watch & learn

Share a story about someone who had a positive impact on your life.

Sometimes, a positive comes from observing a negative.

A warning ignored, a talent wasted.
A life lived in quiet desperation due to choices made rather than inclination.
And then of course: pattern recognition.

That moment of understanding: Not That. Definitely Not That.
Little lessons learned on the way.

haha no

What is your career plan?

Nope. Not falling for that one.

A career is work is labour.
And who exactly are you labouring for?

Exactly.
Go and enjoy your weekend.
