    Stefan Sagmeister

    MANIFESTO
     
    Helping other people helps me
    Having guts always works out for me
    Thinking that life will be better in the future is stupid. I have to live now
    Being not truthful always works against me
    Everything I do always comes back to me
    Assuming is stifling
    Drugs feel great in the beginning and become a drag later on
    Money does not make me happy
    Travelling alone is helpful for a new perspective on life
    Keeping a diary supports personal development
    Trying to look good limits my life
    Material luxuries are best enjoyed in small doses
    Worrying solves nothing
    Complaining is silly. Either act or forget
    Actually doing the things I set out to do increases my satisfaction
    Everybody thinks they are right
    Low expectations are a good strategy
    Everybody who is honest is interesting.
