2017 was the year I grabbed my comfort zone, shoved it towards a corner and beat the heck out of it.
I got married in late 2016, moved to a new city, and at work we started heavily expanding our engineering team and taking on much more ambitious projects…
Just few more hours, and we will land in 2018. This year has been a dream run for me. I want to store my learning and the things I’ve achieved forever and medium suits to be a perfect place.

A great year is coming to a close, and it’s time to look in the rear view mirror with the Annual Review Glasses on. 2017 has been a very good year for me, featuring big life decisions, interesting travel, loads of learning, starting this…
In the accelerating swirl of the world right now we can increasingly overlook the importance of meaning. That was the…

The year of 2018 is about focusing on a feeling, learning who you are, and stepping into the freedom and flexibility to figure it out without fear of failure.
I don’t remember much of 2017. I don’t remember much of anything. It bothers me sometimes but I forget that quickly too.
Looking back, 2017 has been an interesting year. I’m a completely different person today than I was a year ago.

A variável mais importante para uma boa retrospectiva são as pessoas que estão ao meu redor hoje. Minha atenção anda acentuada a cada detalhe que passa por mim, embora tenha que esquecer seletivamente lembranças, afinal, deixo espaço para o novo e por vezes apago ou guardo em uma caixa o que…

I’m not greedy. At least, not completely. If money were no object I would just as happily use it to take my family and friends on a getaway vacation as I would go on a decadent wine and cheese shopping spree.
Happy New Year!
I love New Year’s resolutions. The new year is a great time to reflect on what your life is…
Lmfao! A superbly twisted story, cheers for sharing. Happy new year to you 🌻
