Twenty Six

Usually the night before a birthday I find myself writing one of these lists of things that recap my year. Last year I made it public for the first time, its interesting to see my priorities and problems year to year. This is mostly for me but a bit for you too.

• If you don't like the room, leave the room.
• Stress isn't worth money.
• Happiness and calm is worth paying for.
• I do not like Gin, not even with fruit.
• I'm also not that fond on alcohol.
• I need to invest more time in awesome people.
• Sometimes I need a little more Matthew Broderick and a little less Ben Stein.
• Everything you do can be awesome just go back to the drawing board one more time.
• The right tool can sometimes just be a text file in a folder.
• I need to talk more to people smarter than me.
• The Apple Watch actually makes me go to the gym more.
• I really don't want to move all my photos to another backup service.
• Calling me on the phone unarranged is super annoying, I was busy.
• It was actually awesome to get a hand written letter this year.
• I will never charge my laptop before I have to.
• Even a quick reply to a personal email is better than nothing.
• I take everything personally.
• It's good to have a routine, even on the days you break it.
