Daily Reflections

#1

I’ve come to really appreciate finding meaning and merit in the mundane. Lifelong learning can be a soulless drudgery if we fail to manage expectations and blend heart with pragmatism.

#2

Personal failures and setbacks erode self-trust and self-confidence. It’s vital therefore to reflect on the times you got it right and celebrate the effort you invested in pursuits that didn’t turn out as you hoped.

#3

There’s something magical about working in a space surrounded by plants and books with the overwhelming sense of urgency and stress associated with formal education.

#4

Tech and law have much in common. They both shape human behaviour in fundamental ways. Both can be either a force for good or a threat to human decency. Hence the need for democratic oversight, ethical scrutiny and responsible innovation.

#5

All I need in this life are food, shelter and companionship. Everything else is an optional add-on.
