Why I created a Facebook page

Inspired by Rolf Dobelli’s book, I stopped using Facebook six months ago. Mainly because I was addicted, and also because the constant social comparisons and the instant gratification treadmill became toxic for me. (I’m still using Messenger/WhatsApp for one-one-one contact.) The downside of leaving Facebook was that I lost a distribution channel for my content,…

I started applying the Japanese Water Therapy. It suggests to drink about 1 liter of water right after waking up. It makes intuitive sense to me. The human body needs about 2-4 liters of water per day. As a heuristic, you can say it needs 100 ml per hour. So if you sleep for 8…

The use of the word has been declining until 1980, with good reason. Then the trend reversed. It became a mantra of the tech/startup world. You’ve got to…
