“your vantage point is skewed. You come from a place where opportunities are fewer and further between and thus, can’t be missed without grave consequences. Couple that with your “newness” to the market and it makes this opportunity seem a lot more precious than it was.”
And that’s how I came to peace with losing what I thought was my dream job…
Things I’m grateful for:
1. My awesome friend Tracey!
“If everybody likes what you are doing, you’re doing it wrong.”
Words of wisdom from 20x200 founder Jen Bekman, excerpted from her fantastic Design Matters interview and immortalized in hand-lettered typography by Chris Piascik. A worthy addition to Advice to Sink in Slowly.
For the LOVE of book, I write to you.
There is no doubt everyone should have fun reading, but books have become source in inspiration for many artists.
The amount of work that went into creating these videos is paved by burnt day light and sleepless nights, as well as cups of coffee, huge number of paper cuts and spongebob band aids. And for that we thank you.
P.S. It took me a while to figure out how to fit both videos in one post :P But already too many people marked the other posts. I don’t want to spoil it for them. SPREADING THE LOVE

The Joy of Books
“Vulnerability is the birthplace of innovation, creativity, and change,” researcher-storyteller Brené Brown famously said. In her absolutely fantastic TED 2012 talk, a complement to her equally eloquent 2010 talk on vulnerability, she digs deep into the unspoken epidemic of shame and the spectrum of broken behavior it engenders.
Brown’s book, The Gifts of Imperfection, is a must-read.
If I was a fictional character, I’d be her!

Hopefully, I will help doing that for a living.
It looks awesome, but these mushrooms just don’t look edible to me :/
I grew up gathering shrooms in the wilderness of Russian woods… I never even picked stuff that looked like this… Sorry uncommongoods. I just need some culinary intervention before I go on eating this.
