Hey

We’ve got used to writing pieces of thoughts. Here and there. Whatever comes out of our mind first, we type it and hit send. No analyzing, no proofreading, no paraphrasing or summarizing. Just hit send. What a poor habit. We don’t allow our thoughts to be fully formed before sending them away. It’s like the … Continue reading Hey →

Make the heart go faster

There’s a great internal sensation about running as fast as a humanly possible, although it doesn’t show up externally. Our faces are often tight, which is a reflection of our brains. But who cares.
