Writing Your Own 2019 Manifesto

Wednesday, January 2, 2019
"Cherish your solitutude" quote by Eve Ensler



Writing a personal manifesto is an amazing experience, when you really think about the things that are important in your life. I did this at a Brave Girls Camp, and some of the women wrote the most amazing papers. I am planning to write a new one for 2019. I believe that many of my readers would find a challenge and enjoy the process.

This is an example for you.

“This is your life. Do what you love, and do it often. If you don’t like your job, quit. If you don’t have enough time, stop watching TV. If you are looking for the love of your life, stop; they will be waiting for you when you start doing things you love. Stop over analyzing, life is simple. All emotions are beautiful. When you eat, appreciate every last bite. Open your mind, arms, and heart to new things and people, we are united in our differences. Ask the next person you see what their passion is, and share your inspiring dream with them. Travel often; getting lost will help you find yourself. Some opportunities only come once, seize them. Life is about the people you meet, and the things you create with them so go out and start creating. Life is short. Live your dream and share your passion.”

— “The Holstee Manifesto”, written by Holstee founders Michael Radparvar, Dave Radparvar, and Fabian Pfortmüller in 2009.
