For the 23rd time

Tuesday was my 23rd birthday. I wanna thank all of you for your messages. It wasn't necessarily a big celebration or anything since many of my most important friends and family are in Mures, but it was still pretty cool after all.

Also some very nice gift received, all of them full of significance, especially the rock i got from the guys from AIESEC Cluj Napoca so that I'll have it as "piatra de temelie" to my career. Alin showing up with Adi at the office was another one to remember. So my birthday turned out better than i thought after all.

Some reflection done and conclusion drawn with the occasion but i'll share it some other time, now i gotta get to work;)

Made of passion



This thing has been on my mind for a long time now. And that thing is that we are all made of passions: they define who we are in a way that sometimes we don’t even notice. For instance, looking at myself I don’t know what I would have done right now if I lacked any of the things my passions gave me along the way.

The team spirit and determination taken from 7 years of handball, the complexity, energy & passion gained from some 3 years of (almost) being an artist and the lifelong motivation, learning and friends made in another 3 years of AIESEC.

From what I’ve seen so far, following your passions is perhaps the most thrilling and rewarding things a person can do. But everybody knows that. It’s also one of the most challenging things as well, things I’m kind of facing these days as well. Why?

Because following your passions means sacrifice at times, because following your passions means rarely having any comfort, because following your passions means “someday” and not “today,” because following your passions means embracing the unknown and adapting to whatever comes.

So being happy is not an easy job but hey, somebody’s gotta do it! 

My FFF Philosophy

The essence of a "strategic" plan: DOING things. Fail, Forward, Fast!! No screw ups, no learning! No fast screw ups, no fast learning, no BIG screw ups, no BIG learning!
