- Whenever you chicken out, you don't just feel the pain of cowardice; you miss out on the pleasure of courage.
from So You Wanna De-Bog Yourself by Adam Mastroianni
Tiny steps.
- If you're small, you're in a position where it's to your advantage to be weird—you can have a point of view that the big tech companies never could. In the world of chairs—you're not going to build a cheaper chair than Ikea. Why not build something they couldn't—like a more interesting one?

Such a fan of the “boring” apps - cool, creative, innovative, immersive and tons of fun!
We are the prisoner, the warden and the pardon- holed up in our heads - stuck in our skulls - and yet, paradoxically, already free.
It sounds trite.
And I guess, in some weird way, that’s why so many of us will never actually leave the boxes we’ve built for ourselves, to imprison ourselves, when the pardon we seek - is a simple [backward] step away.
[Chill.] A definition
the sudden awareness that no one knows what they're doing
And life is short.
And much of what you’re worrying about right now, in the fullness of time, just doesn’t matter.
You may not “got this.”
You may not “figure it out”
You may not be have the perfect plan.
But neither do the rest of us.
So take a deep breath, smile and relish the mess.
"Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end" - John Lennon
" i acknowledge that you have not been able to count on me to be a voice of support in your head. when things go wrong, i commit to you, that if you fuck every single thing up, if it all goes wrong - and if it all goes wrong to the max, and everybody leaves you, you can count on me to be support in your head. you don't need to worry about you and me being in a room alone and me tearing you down. "
-Jere Simpson - Field Tripping
