✨ Never be afraid to learn something new. So many people when they think of learning, they think of school and the teacher at the front of the desk, and tests and all of that. But learning is so much more than that. -Rebecca Parsons, CTO of @thoughtworks#AbieWinner#AbieAward

[1/2] As human beings there’s so much that we can do with our lives. Go out and try new things. Don’t be afraid to explore different possibilities because the only thing that’s holding you back is yourself. -Chris Kluwe @ChrisWarcraft, author of Otaku and former #NFL player 🏈
