Friends, family, homies!
I’m 28 today and inspired by a friend’s annual birthday letters reflecting on the previous year… so I’m adopting it! Hopefully this is the first of many.
As I wrap up 27 I feel oddly patient - at peace with the pace of things. Odd because I’m used to a feeling of constant rush, chasing something. What, I’m not sure....

What if you didn’t care what people thought of you? Would you make decisions differently? I would.
I’m a tiny fish in San Francisco. A minnow. Everyone around me is smarter, richer and more followed. It’s a gift and a curse — both inspiring and deflating....

Happy new year all :)
I planned to write this on New Year’s resolutions, but I wasn’t feeling it. I thought about what those resolutions might be, and a voice inside me screamed “bullshit” for each one....

While most people are having fun on Sundays, I’m getting stuff done.
With so much popping up unexpectedly during the week, it seems there’s never enough time to get ahead. There’s always a fire that needs fighting.
I spend Sundays thinking forward - planting seeds for our company’s future and for my own. It’s my most productive day of the week, so I’d love to encourage others to do the same....
