My resignation letter I haven't sent yet: llo Ryan,
I regret to inform you my leaving of the company. I am mentally drained to the point where I no longer feel productive here. I have arrived at the conclusion that I cannot work on computers this much in a routine schedule.
I would love to work something out in the future, I think we have done great work together, however I can no longer continue this job. Sitting for 8 hours, 5 days a week, is something I just cannot do, regardless of location.
I can work a week or two before my leave if truly necessary, but ideally today would be my last day. I am struggling with this very deep down and it is quite frustrating to me.
I would like to point out positives of the work environment. The freedom to make it anything you want it to be is something that many places do not offer and it is a privilege to be a part of that. We also do good work that helps many businesses. This is somewhere where one could begin a lifelong career.
In the near future I will be working again at _____ Public Schools working with kids, something I have not been able to do elsewhere. If I continue to do contract web work, I may be available in the future if you so desire.
If you want a deeper explanation for my leave; it is largely due to bouts of existential crisis, where I question my reasons for being alive, mankind's fate, and even the value of the US dollar, if any.
I apologize for any inconvenience this may bring to you; I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to work here and I have been doing my best to stay and keep focus, but I can no longer continue.
Thank you for a wealth of experience,
_____________ |

A fan sent me a letter and a $10 bill. It's a short letter - all she said was, 'Hey, since it's harder for you to go out these days without getting photographed, here $10 for a pizza.' I was like, 'Aww, she sent me money for a pizza so I could eat at home!' |

I overanalyze things way too much, to the point where it affects my life. Like, when I'm talking to a boy, I'll overanalyze a text message he sent. And I have to think to myself, 'Just chill out. Some guy sent me a text message. That's all. Don't read something into it that's not there. Just be glad he sent you a text message!' |

It occurred to me in my junior year of high school. I got my first letter from a big college. I still have that letter to this day - a letter from Indiana. |

A man writing a letter is a man in the act of thinking, and it was an exercise Reagan obviously enjoyed. After his first meeting with Gorbachev, for example, he sent a 'Dear Murph' letter about it to his old friend George Murphy, a former senator and actor who had once played Reagan's father in a film. |

Well, I actually wrote her a letter a couple of days ago congratulating her. The tone I tried to convey in the letter is, look, you are a part of a great American historical process. |

Going to the gym and looking for a specific result is a short-lived existence, as opposed to going to the gym and adopting it as a lifestyle. Develop a routine, because it's much harder to break it if you have one. If you have no routine, you have nothing to break, so discipline goes out the window. |

I certainly can't complain. I work six days a week, if not seven, and eighteen hours out of twenty-four - fortunately, with a great deal of pleasure. Why? Because I only do something if I want to do it; I need to feel a desire, to find pleasure in moving forward, creating, moving, inventing. |

I had noticed that the longer I worked at a company the less work I actually got done.

So I have to ask companies I worked for in the USA for letters verifying my employment. I emailed several HR departments and was surprised that all responded within ~30 minutes, except for Apple
Every other company had my letter ready and emailed it to me. Apple took almost a week, then they sent me an email that spelled my name wrong and asked for my employee ID and the last 4 digits of my SSN
I have NO IDEA what my employee ID was, so I said that and eventually they sent me back a link to a PDF that I needed. THEN they sent me another email with a survey to ask how they did

Turn up for work. Discipline allows creative freedom. No discipline equals no freedom.
Never stop when you are stuck. You may not be able to solve the problem, but turn aside and write something else. Do not stop altogether.
Love what you do.
Be honest with yourself. If you are no good, accept it. If the work you are doing is no good, accept it.
Don’t hold on to poor work. If it was bad when it went in the drawer it will be just as bad when it comes out.

How much do you think Elon Musk drinks? He definitely drinks... but he works like 80-100 hours a week and has like 5 kids. How does he have time to drink? It just makes me sleepy or gives me a headache now, which can definitely ruin a 100 hour work week.

I was recently thinking about aging. It's been my opinion for a while that we should just accept that we are going to grow old and die and that we have to get over it. I have now heard the argument, however, that the things that happen to us while we age are not unlike the things that happen to us when we get diseases and die. They went on to say that we should treat them the same and we should work on curing aging. This isn't to say that we should live forever, but that the flaws in the mechanisms that replicate our cells could be fixed or assisted and that we could live for a much longer time. I think it's interesting to think about and I agree that it is worth pursuing. Imagine if the life expectancy doubled. What great things could people accomplish if they had more time?

“Now, I’m the one getting a lot of my teammates into cryo,” Anderson continued. “With our team in Philly, we’re young and we’re all trying to figure out what’s best for our bodies. Bringing in veterans like JJ [Redick] and Amir [Johnson] will obviously help a lot because they have experience and can offer great advice. But Markelle [Fultz], who is a really good friend of mine, had the same reaction to cryo as I did when I was a rookie; he had heard of it and seen a cryo chamber, but he hadn’t tried it. He’s only 19 years old and, at first, he didn’t see the benefit because he had never played an NBA schedule and had never dealt with the soreness that comes with 82 games. Then, after training camp, he was like, ‘You know what? I’m sore, so let me give this a try.’ Guys on the team are definitely getting more into it and seeing that it helps.”
