Yo, thanks for sharing. 🤙🏼 Last couple years have been wild - and when work is our identity - hot damn - shit goes sidewise so easily.

Yeah, I definitely learned that the hard way. But maybe it was also needed to “wake up” and start taking my mental health disorders more seriously.

That's great to hear, Mate! Keep going 🔥 !

Glad to hear you’re doing better! Take care of yourself :)

Thanks Jackie! Every day still presents challenges, but definitely taking better care of myself than I was for the last few years.

If it's not personal, I would like to know what helped you find back this motivation. Take care!

I dunno if this sounds fucked up, but for the first time in 3 years I feel like I have found things worth living for; worth making; worth cultivating

I felt like I lost my identity when I was laid off from InVision in 2020 when their business failed and Figma captured the market

Most likely only the people closest to me know this (or if you’ve read my vulnerable tweets over the years), but I went through some really dark times.

It’s a lifelong journey to learn more about myself through therapy and build the support system so that doesn’t happen again.

It’s a personal journey & I couldn’t possibly fit it in one post

Also, it’s more about discipline than motivation. Motivation is easy—it’s like the ignition on a car. But if you want to make it through the ups and downs and windy roads, you need fuel, which is the discipline.

Thank you for sharing & being authentically vulnerable with us! Reminds us that at the end of the day, we’re all humans trying to find our own peace and happiness. So rooting for you and sending you good vibes to continue finding things worth living for - take care of yourself 💜
