Money, it turned out, was exactly like sex. You thought of nothing else if you didn’t have it, and thought of other things if you did.
“Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.” -Steve Jobs (1955-2011)
Fashion has a right to exist, because it permits people to define themselves over and over again.

How to Find True Love, Get in Shape and Travel More
True Story: When I first started for Robert Geller years ago, we were sitting in the offices working on a new collection discussing food. I told him I wanted to open a Vietnamese sandwich shop because I was disappointed with the quality of Vietnamese food in NYC. I never did. A couple years later the Bahn Mi craze in New York blew up.
Anyone that has done any reading into work and business has probably heard the motto “Fail often, Fail early.”
I think this idea is only partially correct.
You need to Deliver More.
Ideas are easy to create, executing them is what matters.
I’m pretty confident that Facebook would not exist as we know it if the Winklevoss Twins kept “their idea”.
What fail more really means is filter more.
Deliver, filter out the failures with what succeeds and repeat.
The odds of success increase the more you deliver.
If you want to find amazing love, you put yourself out there. Go on dates, meet people, filter out the losers and repeat. You don’t find someone by making lists of your ideal partner.
We don’t experience new cultures by planning trips in notebooks and get in shape by writing workout and diet plans, you get on a plane and get your ass running.
Deliver more. Receive more.
Word of the day: Man-sick
When a male uses the vulnerability of being sick (the severity of the illness does not matter) in order to be taken care of and make questionable/illogical medical, dietary and lifestyle choices.
The phenomenon is a likely remnant of males being overly mothered while sick as children.
Real life Examples:
Example 1:
I have a stuffy nose. I should stay inside and watch 2 seasons of Breaking Bad so I don’t infect other people.
Example 2:
Me: (pauses Breaking Bad Season 2) Amore, my throat is scratchy I’m going to eat the last of the ice cream with Nutella and whipped cream.
Sheena: I hate you.
Example 3:
I can’t go to Crossfit today, I don’t want to stress my body while I’m recovering from my sickness. And I can’t watch anymore Breaking Bad without Sheena, she’ll kill me. I’ll buy Gears of War 3.
