Space to think. Reason to act.

Introduce yourself with five albums that have shaped you.

1. OK Computer (1997) by Radiohead
2. Rid of Me (1993) by PJ Harvey
3. Goo (1990) by Sonic Youth
4. Siamese Dream (1993) by Smashing Pumpkins
5. Loveless (1991) by My Bloody Valentine

All of these albums mean a lot to me for different reasons. Ever since I discovered them, I’ve listened to them from start to finish countless times, and I still listen to them regularly. Maybe I’ll write more about it someday.

It‘s only crazy until it works.

“I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious.“

A simplified list of rules I try to live by.

1. Be kind to yourself.
2. Be kind to others.

Just do it. One task at a time.

I’m obsessed with coffee. I’ve been since I was a teenager. I’m sure part of it has to do with good memories, but there aren’t many bad things in life that a good cup of coffee can‘t fix.

A short list of things I want to do more often.

• Always carry a notebook.
• Learn more new things.
• Practice more.
• Prioritize sleep.
• Listen more than you speak.
• Write to think.
• Be useful.
• Be smart.
• Create space to think.
• Read more books.
• Look at the sky more.
• Exercise more.
