Facing cringey reasons
Facing cringey reasons
Sometimes just knowing your cringey reasons is half the battle, other times it’s the whole battle, or only one tenth. But the humility in facing them is worth the pain. Coming up from the depths to cringe, then troubleshoot, isn’t avoidant — it’s responsible.

certainty
certainty
a brain dressed as a heart will never beat the same way, no matter how hard it thinks about it. ​ Your brain might be able to whip up a five-page single-spaced essay outlining exactly what you want and need in extensive detail, but your heart will always have the last word (and trust me, they will fit on a post-it). ​ Certainty means you’re moving at the speed of trust — a personal pace that ultimately has no record to beat or even road to follow.

communication on all levels
I’ve been thinking about this tweet since I first saw it. When I examine my current and past relationships, it really does come down to this: all the good things are about the ability to communicate. All the bad things come down to the inability to bridge the gaps between us.

How Do I Be More Online?
How Do I Be More Online?
…the best way to protect yourself is to maintain a robust distinction between your inner self and your presence online. Remember that at its best, social media is a tool. You ought not let it define you or let it creep into your self-concept. It is inherently dehumanizing, and if you let it in too deep, you will end up dehumanizing yourself.

Ego and Design
Ego and Design
But design work is so much healthier/better when you stop telling yourself that you’re changing lives. Websites can just be…websites! And your front end framework or side project doesn’t need to reshape human civilization for it to be worth while. Once you relieve yourself of that pressure it’s so much easier to be happy and to do good, useful work. (I am still struggling with this, leave me alone.)

Everything I Know About Life I Learned from Powerpoint
But one of my favorite bits of advice, which I feel like it applies to every writer and not just folks writing slide decks, is the bit where Russell talks about removing titles from your slide decks. Just don’t do it, he says. A title is a distraction, a preamble to your idea. Just have a single sentence on your slide without the waffling.

“We don’t need the critic to tell us what is good or bad, to tell us what to like and dislike. We need the critic, instead, to help us experience. We need the critic in the way that we need a friend or a lover. We need the critic as a companion on a journey that is a love affair with the things of the world.” — art critic Morgan Meis on Romantic Criticism

Poetry for everyone
Poetry for everyone
“The purpose of poetry is not to learn more about poetry, but more about life,” Robert Bly said, and I believe him. I tell my poetry kids that poetry is life, how they live their lives, how they share their lives. The study of it is the study of what it means to be alive. What ends up on the page is the least important part of the process.

📩 Letter #47: Till death do us part
📩 Letter #47: Till death do us part
But it’s a beautiful thing to choose and to be chosen. It’s something our culture feels so disconnected from—the deep joy of making permanent decisions. ​ The reason we talk so much is that we have so much to talk about. We are very different people. ​ Within a lifelong commitment, I can free him from the burden of being perfect. Without the expectation of being the “perfect man,” he can be exactly what he is: A great man. (Crumbs and all.) That’s freeing. ​ But for me, I’m choosing to believe the commitment is the beginning. It’s where the story starts.

Being too old Is a beautiful state of mind
Being too old Is a beautiful state of mind
Essentially, deciding that you’re Too Old is deciding that this the right moment for you to choose depth over breadth. ​ Choosing to be Too Old is the selective closing of your heart in certain domains so you can keep it open in others. ​ Not everything that’s amazing is meant for you, and, whether you like it or not, you will miss out on nearly everything. ​ …it’s all about deeply understanding who you are, specifically, and not apologizing for it.

gut feelings
gut feelings
I think one of the best (and rarest) feelings in the world is knowing you’re doing something that feels right. I really really respect people who are good at listening to their gut instincts, who are in tune with what feels right and chart their actions accordingly. ​ True resonance between the right people has its own language. It’s incredibly effortless, a warm glow of energy they give you. Some people you can’t help but love. You can’t resist being a moth drawn to a flame. Something in you just knows: these are my people, this is my person. ​ “If you get close to what you love, who you are is revealed to you, and it expands” – Ethan Hawke ​ A lot of my friends are ‘free’ in ways that I am not and therefore they inspire me to grow and change.

Walking through doors
Walking through doors
Forgetting is part of how we cope with the monotony of everyday life and how we look at problems in new ways. ​ …my feeling is that the hardware you physically interact with, the things you touch every day, are worth the extra cost. ​ We think it’s our job to align everyone’s flow state with their personal mission at the company.

why you should create in public
why you should create in public
How anything worth doing from here on out is necessarily going to be beyond my realm of safety. Discomfort is proof that you care, proof you can love something so much you want it to be better than it is. ​ The most successful people I know are the ones who don’t take discomfort as a deterrent. Instead, they approach it with a childlike curiosity, take it as a signal of interest. ​ I see it this way: hiding your creative work has infinite opportunity cost – it prevents you from getting any feedback (good or bad) that helps you improve; it silences the variety of luminous, expansive, electrified ideas that seek articulation. ​ The interim between feeling ready and doing it despite the discomfort is where the entire world begins.

The little things you do for others that remind you both of who you are, matter. They’re what define the thread count of the human experience. It’s micro gestures like small smiles, arm squeezes, and “hey you”s that root us in our sense of self
