Hospitality in software UX.
They’re not “users”. They are “guests” and might become “regulars”. Make them feel welcome, later make them feel special.

Investing, for me, is a form of activism to create the world I want to see, and I'm beyond honored that the @nytimes wanted to spotlight it. 🙏🙏❤️❤️

I wrote something new. This one was therapeutic to think through, as I've been frustrated with my progress.
Instead of focusing on local minima/maxima, achieving a global maximum requires consistency. In being consistent over time, you become the outlier

Per la pillola 4 delle mie lezioni di DESIGN italiano, provo a dire due parole su un grande classico. Non sapete quanto "classico"... E quindi ve lo spiego qui.

Anger, suspicion and jealousy disturb our minds. The antidote to these emotions is to cultivate patience and tolerance. Who provides us the opportunity to develop it? The one we call our enemy. Therefore, we can see him or her as a teacher.

Scientists warn that constant fear and anger are bad for our health, while being compassionate and warm-hearted contributes to our physical and mental well-being. Therefore, just as we observe physical hygiene to stay well, we need to cultivate a kind of emotional hygiene too.

I feel that it’s crucial to have a clear recognition of the value of your objective. That's the important thing. Recognizing that your objective is worthy, because it involves others' welfare or the general well-being of the community, gives you the determination to pursue it.

There are always problems to face, but it makes a difference if our minds are calm. On the surface we may get upset, but it makes a difference if we are able to stay calm in the depths of our minds.
