Do it now. The conditions are always impossible

—Doris Lessing

Adulthood is disappointing for many because it doesn’t take place in the same era we were children in. 90s children imagined their adulthood taking place in a 90s-like society where the rules remained unchanged.

Our eyes see 0.05% of the entire electromagnetic wave... *We*'*re blind cosmically*, but we judge everything by what we see.

Spaces where phones aren't allowed:

\- Any restaurant

\- While talking with a human being

\- When smoking weed

\- On a hike (pictures only when absolutely necessary)

\- After 11PM

\- Before 9AM

\- In class

\- When taking a walk

You have to be curious about the world in which you live. Look things up. Chase down every reference. Go deeper than anybody else - that's how you'll get ahead.


(p. 19) Kleon, A. (2012). Steal Like An Artist.

“When you love someone, you can’t just tell them,” she said. “What do you mean?” her friend asked.

“If you say ‘I love you’, how are they supposed to understand? It’s like trying to comprehend the universe.

You have to show them quietly. A coffee. An extra day off. Room to stand under the same umbrella.

Take the universe apart and give them the stars.”
