Varför Pre

du arbetar med, med dina drömmar och deras drömmar. Vad det än var som fick dig till den här skolan, släpp det inte. Vad som än höll dig här, släpp inte det. Tro på dina vänner. Tro att det du och dina vänner har att säga... att sättet du säger det - är något nytt i världen."

HOLSTEE MANIFESTET

Du kanske minns The Holstee Manifesto som ett av våra 5 favoritmanifest för det kreativa livet , ett vältaligt och vackert skrivet kärleksbrev till livet av syfte. (Så älskat är manifestet här att det har fått en permanent plats i Brain Pickings sidofält, en daglig påminnelse till både mig själv och dig, kära läsare, om vad som betyder mest.)

Det här är ditt liv. Gör det du älskar och gör det ofta. Om du inte gillar något, ändra det. Om du inte gillar ditt jobb, sluta. Om du inte har tillräckligt med tid, sluta titta på TV. Om du letar efter ditt livs kärlek, sluta; de kommer att vänta på dig när du börjar göra saker du älskar.”

Holstee Manifesto finns nu som ett vackert boktryckstryck , ett 5×7 gratulationskort tryckt på handgjort papper som härrör från 50 % elefantbajs och 50 % återvunnet papper, och till och med en babyhaklapp – eftersom det aldrig är för tidigt att ingjuta värderingarna av att leva från passion.

I still see the yellow quote marks in the background.  It is distracting from the message.

Great article. Thanks so much.
  I have to agree with Ruth's comment about the bright and big yellow quote marks as background for some wonderful quotes.  It makes it hard to read.  And the text /quotes are soooo worth reading.

Thanks so much for posting this and I am having a really hard time reading the words over those big yellow quote marks. Hope someone will change this soon. Thanks!

Frankly, I don't like what am doing but if I am not seeing something better than then should I stop. stopping something for nothing is like becoming a day loser. Anyway i have to do what am doing with care. when hacking and computer is added in this edition I can tell am not a hacker or wanting to hack.Given, I had a lot of enemies including  some of relatives and having feeling sad of being left by my age who have children, live better places and have done great things I find hard to remain with stores and sells and a place that my peers come to only see damned people.While that really disturbs me I have got many people who would like to harm me more harm they are contributors and others. then my mother and her issues. So, I can't believe that daillygood would also like to lead me to convictions and more. Am not saying you are working on that but it can be saddest if to do that.The other thing that I felt like the daillygood group think am enemy, no. am not enemy. I never came lookin...

Great article, thanks.  I especially agree with setting boundaries and not worrying about what other people think.  It is a hard obstacle to overcome but it is a vital one.  You are not always going to have universal popularity with what you do, but if you love what you do, it doesn't matter.  For anyone who wants to download a free copy of 'Creative Expression - How to find your inspiration...'
