The only relationship I know of worth a label is marriage, what on earth is this and who on earth has time to (actively choose to) behave like this and to come up with names like these?

I set out a suitcase to pack for my flight later today and spotted my 3 year old crawling inside it to hide. I casually zipped it up, yelled "I'M OFF TO THE AIRPORT, EVERYBODY!", and carried it to the car. I've circled the block twice and my luggage hasn't stopped laughing.
I would never mock somebody for having a 9 to 5. That life isn't for me personally, but anybody who earns an honest and ethical living should be saluted, not torn down. We need more of that. Not less.

This is why your high school & university achievements from 5-10 years ago don’t matter. “Class president” “First place in university exams” “Won startup competition in uni” Great stuff. But what have you done recently? What have you done with these wins? What’s next?

An advice for every 20-22 year old who's starting freelancing by the @ShreyaPattar:
it’s honestly mindblowing just how much taking care of yourself as an adult is simply learning to eat at home and going on walks
Sales is always a “no” until it’s cash in the bank. Don’t take your foot off the sales gas based on “interest” and “maybes.”
I think "successful" young people nowadays seem miserable and ungrateful because the success is earned too quick. It's not that they don't value their success so far - but it's just earned so quickly that it feels undeserved. Becoming successful (money/fame/time) is easier now…
It’s not all glamour… but it’s all that’s glamourised :) Had a mini-red-carpet moment yesterday 😊☀️
Quitting the rat race has become the new rat race. Entrepreneurship and risk aren’t for everyone. This is perfect for those who prefer stability. The only people who have truly escaped the “system” are those who stopped comparing and started doing what’s most suitable for them

@ShreyaPattar That's a fair point. The idea of a constant bg noise is becoming normalcy.... not the best trend.
Many people think avoiding conflict reduces harm, but somewhat counterintuitively, in the long run avoiding conflict actually increases harm because all the problems that could've been dealt with swiftly are given space to grow into even bigger problems Reality punishes cowards.
@ShreyaPattar I guess, the best case scenario is to hope like this vocabulary won’t be growing over the years with new terms and definitions 🥹
