Seems like every time I click on the NYT these days, I’m inspired or at least reassured that momentum is shifting, people are waking up and choosing a path with less greed, ego and blind consumption involved. The last blog post was sparked by a New York Times article, and here again, I am finding the words of Graham Hill (founder of LifeEdited.com and TreeHugger.com) resonating in harmony with core Coop values.
Intuitively, we know that the best stuff in life isn’t stuff at all, and that relationships, experiences and meaningful work are the staples of a happy life.
My success and the things it bought quickly changed from novel to normal. Soon I was numb to it all. The new Nokia phone didn’t excite me or satisfy me. It didn’t take long before I started to wonder why my theoretically upgraded life didn’t feel any better and why I felt more anxious than before.
The full article is worthwhile, a recommended read with love from CoLab.
