turns out, reading voraciously, moving your body, loving people without keeping score, protecting your solitude, chasing nothing but your own growth, and occasionally staying out too late with people who make you laugh until it hurts is not a bad way to build a life.
very early in your career it's very important that you work for a manager who holds you to very high standards no matter how you hate it. 2 years down the line you will be doing some work,good work and realise it's not you, its the standards you were once held to.
we are the sum total of the standards we are held to.
I'm a big fan of the "GPS Theory" when you miss a turn, your GPS doesn't judge you, it recalculates. No matter how many detours you take, it finds another way forward. Life works like that too. You'll make mistakes, but your destination doesn't vanish. The route just changes.
all of my friends have something that i admire about them. the hustle, style, the way they move, beauty, free spirit, intelligence & more.. it’s so important to have ppl around you that motivate you in some kind of way
