Don’t Forget Your Fortune

I collaborated on a music video today and then we went to eat Chinese food. I’m a little drunk so, I hope I don’t forget my fortune. ***See yesterday’s post on Taoism & Creative Management***  

Taoism and Creativity

“Hold on loosely But don’t let go If you cling to tightly You’re gonna lose control” -38 special I’m not that into 80s music, but I’m very into Taoism as a creative management style. We want our creative visions to manifest exactly as we imagine, but the world is filled with variables outside of our…

Polish polish

Time is our only constraint. This blog is fun to me, but is it the best use of my time? For now though, I’m too scared to miss a day, because if I miss one I’ll stop altogether. Also, if polish was made in Poland it would be Polish polish.
