@_wearethebeyond I think 'are we important?' is a better question. And to whom.

[frankie louise @_wearethebeyond]

I heard somewhere today the question asked 'why are we even important? Us humans?'

The question sticks, don't you think?

"Being at rock bottom was the best thing that could have happened to me,"

...is something I will say to myself in a few years.

[Paraic Bergin @ParaicBergin]

@DariiiaPetrova It's something you can start saying to yourself right here, right now. I hit rock bottom in 1984. The next 4 months were very difficult & I worked hard to turn my life around. That's over 40 years ago. I haven't looked back since. It truly was the turning point of my life

Most of us are lazy, self-centred and bored. We forget that to be above average we don't need to be like our idols, we just need to be 1% above lazy, self-centred or bored. How easy is that?

@simonCAMedit As a frequent traveller I can't escape thinking how similar people in airport queues are to those being herded onto trains in WWII and how we're being taught to be meek and compliant. There is no value in airport security - if there was, the "rules" would be the same everywhere

At 2am my girl sleeping on Miami airport floor alongside babies and children as American Airlines faffed with mechanical problems. Industry profits $30 bn/yr. AA CEO paid $31.4m last year…yet air travel is hell. How long do we put up with this?

[Paraic Bergin @ParaicBergin]

@CortBull Absolutely, couldn't agree more. The danger with success is it strokes the ego while failure feeds the soul

[Cort Bull @CortBull]

Authenticity isn't learned in school, it's learned by failing.

The best advice I ever got was from my father-in-law: when you have to choose between doing what's right and being kind, the right thing to do is to be kind

@Graphogenea Serendipitous. I signed up for a 2 week copywriting challenge yesterday that focuses on writing everything out by hand. I knew intuitively this is a superior way to learn.

[Graphogenealogic @Graphogenea]

Did you know handwriting is a valuable skill that shouldn't be neglected?

Here are six good reasons to learn or keep writing by hand 🧵

[Paraic Bergin @ParaicBergin]

@deep_lucidi_t It teaches the real power of decision

[Paraic Bergin @ParaicBergin]

The best time to be alive is now. Agree?

[Paraic Bergin @ParaicBergin]

@clairelynch773 Now that's a real challenge for me...

[Claire Lynch @clairelynch773]

I've ditched resolutions for a word of the year.
Mine is 'consistency' - what's yours?
