359 - There’s No Such Thing As Normal, So Let’s Plan Accordingly 12:13

2M ago12:13

12:13

There’s a problem with “normal”: It only exists in our imagination. Inevitably, reality will play out much differently than whatever scenario we plan in our head.

3M ago12:21

12:21

“If you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life.” We hate that quote!
