On Patience.

Life moves at its own rhythm. We can’t bring tomorrow forward nor can we speed up time to get things over with. Time moves at the same pace as it always has. It’s out of our control. Being patient means accepting life’s natural cycles. It’s being in agreement with reality. …

Why The Internet Is Scaring Me

And why it should be scaring you too. — The internet has been scaring me lately. Technology has always moved rapidly, but with Artificial Intelligence taking centerstage (with apps like ChatGPT), things are advancing faster than I can process them. …

Stand by your work

We’re expecting you to. — On being asked for advice for upcoming artists, Tyler (the Creator) replied: “Stand by your work.” He expands on his point, explaining that a lot of artists put a ton of work into their projects, just to shy away from promoting it when time to do so. It struck a…

On Things Going Wrong

A lesson learned on the Amalfi Coast — In transit from Naples to Positano, my friend and I encountered delays, closures and accidents that prolonged our journey by several hours. Despite this, I wouldn’t have changed a thing. The plan was to go from Naples to Sorrento via train, followed by a scenic bus route along the Amalfi…

The Magic Behind Gut Feelings

Is there logic behind intuition? — If you’ve ever felt strongly about something that can’t be easily explained, you’ve experienced ‘gut feeling’. But what exactly is it? And why should we trust it? I don’t think it’s not an isolated feeling, like happiness or worry. It’s more like a unique blend of experience, wisdom and foresight. …

The Activation Energy of New Ideas

Understanding the unrelated catalyst that shakes things up. — Not every book I’ve read had the impact expected of it, and now, I don’t expect them to. A podcast about money may somehow convince me to exercise more. This is a strange, active process. One where an input leads directly to an unexpected and completely unrelated chain of thoughts. …

The Power of Embracing Hard Work

It Was Never Supposed to be Easy — The real work starts when things get hard. In a growing world of false gurus, it would be easy to believe that the right tool, service or advice could get you to the finish line quicker. It sounds too good to be true, because it often is. The real work…

Why Your Ideas Don’t Matter

It’s Not What You Think, It’s What You Do — I know plenty of people who genuinely believe that the right idea could make them millions. But they’ve never spoken about how they’d fulfill them. Often, their belief is that millionaires stumbled across their wealth just as naturally as they stumbled upon the idea. …

The Most Important Thing I Learned in 2022

And why I won’t make this mistake again. — Life changed a lot in 2022. I started a new company, the Hippocampus TV. I stopped uploading Youtube videos as frequently. I took a few trips abroad.

Why Running 5km Was The Best Thing I Did This Year

The Mental Workout I Never Knew I Needed — I’m no runner. In secondary school, I signed up to be a part of the cross-country running team. I wasn’t chosen, there was just a few of us who had signed up, so we all were accepted by default. I had no preparation, no strategy. I practically wheezed throughout the…
