Another way of looking at what meaning is all about is simply through one word: why? Why are you doing this? Why is this the thing? Why is what’s going on going on? why? This is a question that can really answer what is the meaning of what I’m doing. This is something that can […]

Sometimes I think the things I talk about are just too simple and obvious, because these are very basic things. I mean, what is meaningful life? I mean, it really can be very simple. There’s no kind of complicated answer to it. And I was asked the question: what does meaningful life even mean? What

One thing that taking a break really helped me to see is how we can really look at what we’re doing on different zoom levels. So imagine being very zoomed out, and you’re looking at the full picture. And the biggest level, I would say, would be your whole life. You’re looking at your entire

Another way to look at this whole balance of working, taking a break, of this active vs passive energy, is to think of it like being some kind of a material. Are you going to be too brittle or too soft? So somewhere the correct mix of hard and soft gets you the best result.

In looking at the question of how we choose to live our lives, I’ve always liked the idea of being able to approach our own lives as if it’s some kind of a creative project. The same kind of principles and approach that we can apply to some kind of artistic endeavour, we can also

A concept that I find is really helping me to guide my path and help me to focus how I’m working on things is this idea of alignment. Being aligned with something. It’s a way of looking at your self-development, your path, your mission, how you’re spending your time and energy, what you’re focusing on.
