I don’t want a life organized around other people’s calendars.
I want time to build, to learn, to walk, to read, to enjoy the people I love — and room to have fun in the process.
Work, for me, is a tool to buy that kind of freedom, not a stage to perform on.
Every decision has a cost. I prefer to pay mine consciously: if something fails, I’d rather it be the result of my own choices than of drifting along.
I try to follow a few simple lines:
Build assets, not only hours sold.
Protect time and health as seriously as money.
Create things that are useful, but also genuinely enjoyable to make.
Accept consequences without excuses.
All of this points to a long-term, quiet project I call Arcadia:
a future where life is lighter for the people around me.
Arcadia Shall Flourish.
