What does your morning routine look like? Mine used to be waking up at 7AM, sleep…
There’s more to a first date than just chemistry, assuming you’re looking for more than just Mr. or Ms. Right Now. Here’s what I believe are the most important questions to ask yourself. Note: Do not write this down and bring it with you on the…
Inspired by an article I read on Brain Pickings today, here are some thoughts on momentum; in life and as a designer.
Nous avons tous entendu dans notre entourage des histoires de personnes quittant leur CDI pour se lancer dans l’aventure du design en tant que freelance. En général, ce type d’aventure m’évoque un designer plein d’ambition…
Headaches are a nightmare, anyone who suffers them regularly can tell you that. During my first year at university I used to have around 1 per week. The pain would often put me to bed for hours. I would miss lectures…
I work as a freelancer at home so I don’t usually have to wake up early in the morning.
These days I don’t even have any project to work on! But every time I get up after 11 Am I feel like shit.
Die Weihnachtszeit habe ich alleine verbracht. Einfach zur Ruhe kommen und sich auf das Wesentliche besinnen. Ich habe viel gelesen, mir Gedanken zum vergangenen Jahr gemacht und mir überlegt, was ich im neuen Jahr angehen möchte.
Last year, I made a concerted effort to run more. I’d been going to the gym for a couple years, but always avoided the treadmills. I could always come up with some excuse to walk right by them on my way up to the floor with the weights and…
3 Things Every Person Should Do While Grooming and Cleaning…
When I read this article I did a few things.
I emailed my wife.
I shared the shit out of it.
I remembered the idea of habit-linking, I think from #thepowerofhabit by Charles Duhigg.
A write up of some notes following The School of Life Sunday Sermon I attended this morning, with guest speaker Theodore Zeldin on the topic of “Life’s Hidden Pleasures”
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. But you’re no more special than I. Don’t take that the wrong way though, think of it using the incredibles analogy. If everyone is special then no one is special.
It’s easy enough to make a list of what qualities an entrepreneur should have. A good leader, motivator, communicator, they should persevere… These are all the sorts of things you expect a good manager or leader to have, but that doesn’t differentiate…
You asked me why I did it.
Thich Nhat Hanh

Going to the Gym.
The hardest part about going to the gym is actually getting in the car and driving there. I’ve scouted out online, all the Rec Centers in…
In the fall of 2014, I began attending meet-ups for the Greenville, SC chapter of CocoaHeads. As much as I can I also try to attend NSCoder meet-ups. The folks are awesome and I’ve learned a ton them.
Unless you come from a perfect family and have had nothing but flawless relationships, your head will play broken records of judgment and criticism. Of course the volume of the record varies, depending on your story. But we all have this playing inside us. It is quicksand. It starts with a raw…
Having free spirit and very artistic character, and begin born in a non artistic family has its own consequences. When you…
How awesome is that moment when you decide to start writting but you don´t know about what.
You look at the screen and the screen look at you. That is it. Nothing coming nothing going.
Should i feel inspirated like so many times before?
Understand that mentality has to with everything. The way you breathe.Leading to the way you walk (posture)…
Ask the person next to you why they are in college. Nine times out of ten they will tell you, “To get a good job.” Well hey, that’s great! But… what happened to going to college to actually learn? To actually seek knowledge, not a career. Now, getting a good career is amazing. I am not…
Haste will ruin what you make and do.

Our body has an innate ability to respond to the way we think about ourselves. The communications from the brain affects the whole body. It is this very idea that has brought our awareness out from the hidden secrets of life itself. We bring light to the truth of who we are by being…
I think most people would answer that question with a definitive “yes” since all forms of…

The other day, he asked me to become his boyfriend. I gave him a conditional yes.
The conditional yes shows your OK, but it doesn’t mean you’ll do it. It’s sneaky. It lasts forever. It’s hardly abused.
By Bob Nease
Extreemely insightful and helpful article, thank you!
I would only add:
- Stay conscious, open and curious to always keep learning and improving at a natural pace.
- Steal and adopt good habits with pride.
Most importantlyAt least once per year STOP reflect and enjoy
I so just made this decision today — returning to my completion list “do by/done by” at most. More as an audit. Seriously, I’m respecting my scrumboard more. #bizdevlove
I’m done with it — these negative ramblings people around me are talking.
This being my first article, the chosen topic is very useful for most of the people but known to very less.
I feel as though I am in a constant state of confusion. I never know if I am fully sure of what I am doing. Sometimes everything feels right and I am exactly where I am supposed to be, but again those are rare occasions. I wonder if I am doing right. I suppose everyone has their off days and this is mine. The past few weeks I’ve felt so sure of…
“To live is to know and accept today, but to strive for the goals for tomorrow.”
This little sentence holds an ultimate truth of life. It may look vague at first, but once properly…
Why did I start to learn social dynamics? It was for a woman for the first time but then it has changed and it is not it anymore. Now it is all about social freedom to choose and use my mental energy to whatever I want without being limited by BS. I can not decide if I like or I do not like women generally, not sexually. From today, I am stopping…
Wondering what is true.
Under my skin,
looking to uncover the true self.
I wander into my mind
and find nothing.

WHAT YOU HAVE TAUGHT OTHERS ABOUT YOU
Today we were playing music and dancing together as a family. My son absolutely rejected the image of what he saw his Dad doing.
He got angry and yelled, “Dad, no dance”!
I, E. Liu, choose gratitude instead of non-gratitude from this day onwards.
There comes a point when you have to tell yourself, enough. Last night I went there again…that very deep dark place where people call the “dark night of the soul”. I started weeping, I started…
An offered hand to be received with gratitude.

One should notice that he doesn’t go binary for a long time, you have to add some zeroes to feel alive. But I totally agree that in critical times binary is the way to go
Thank you for the love, Doug Wilks!
