Know what you need! or How to work efficiently and...
“Know when you need to rest, when you need to work, and when you need to socialize. Don’t waste time in one state when your brain or body needs to be in another.”
Found this today on my tumblr feed from bustr. And found it inspiring. Especially the part about not wasting time in one state when you are wanting to be in another one.
Writing my thesis at the moment is making me very...

Creative workspaces - inspiration
At the moment I am very excited about how a creative working space can look like. It is for sure due to the fact that we just moved and I finally get to have my own space. Somehow it is a bit awkwardly placed in the room and therefore I am trying to get inspiration of the internet. (is there anything you cannot get from the internet) I told you about Naomi’s blog spaziale.org and here are...

How to create an inspiring working/learning space?...
My friend Naomi den Besten (yes, she is called “the best”) has a blog since several months that is all about creative working and learning environments called spaziale.org . When I asked her why on her blog she mainly talks about working environments she said: I use those two words, working and learning, interchangeable. To learn is to work and to work is to learn.
That speaks a...

WatchTidying up art by Ursus Wehrli! He is funny, and it is a great idea. It seems like the kind of idea you have while you are spending time with your friends talking about everything and nothing. And somehow it still makes sense. :) Funny way of starting the week.

Wreck this app - Keri Smith
Keri Smith and her playful and inspiring books have been part of my life since a couple of years now. Also, many of my friends have gotten several of her books as presents and invitations to play. Yes, Keri Smith is about playing. On her blog she quotes John Cage:
“Purposeless play—this play is an affirmation of life—not an attempt to bring order out of chaos nor to suggest...

Enjoy what you do - social enterprise
This is actually a guide about how to find a job in a social enterprise, but I read it more as a summary of what social enterprises are out there. So an inspirational reading publication. Also, it is interesting to know what you could do to give back to your community and still have financial success. If you ask me, this is where the future of business is going… Well, at least that is what...

The article basically explains the kind of change I want to and will support in organization.
“We assume that people are fundamentally good and people are responsible adults,” says Groupon CEO Andrew Mason. “The policies we have reflect those...

Treasure hunting anyone?
Dropspot it is an alternative mailbox. It’s a hiding place in a public space, where people can leave things for exchange. Anything. It’s a weird and wonderful way to add personal character to the streets that we live in. Stash something fun and see what you get back. More info on dropspots.org .
So it sounds a bit like geocashing (treasure hunting with GPS), but the chilled out, really just for...
