For the past two years, I’ve had a framed poster hanging above my desk. It features a balloon and a simple message: “let it go.” Trite I know, but I bought it to remind me to do just that when I start to worry about things and hold myself back on other things like obsessing over sending an email.
10 years ago I went to Antarctica (don’t do it in a 1950’s Russian shipping vessel called The Antarctic Dream. It’s no dream. It’s a f*cking nightmare). While I was at the bottom of the Earth and truly off the grid, I wrote a note and a postcard to myself that simply said four words.
