Thinking. It's hard to do just that.

Airplanes without WiFi are my favorite think-spot. But alas, they let you watch movies.

I’m a work-a-holic. This is not to insult those with an addiction to alcohol. I suspect, given my father’s almost lifelong alcohol use disorder, I have those genes too. This is why I never had a drink of alcohol, for those wondering how one person can get so much done when they read this newsletter. Sadly, not indulging in alcohol doesn’t make working less easy.

In our modern age, sometimes we need design to solve our problems. Our desires—and the lure of technology—is strong.

Sometimes, you need time to not work. Time to think. Be a little bored, perhaps?
