In 2015 I got rid of everything I owned that didn’t fit in a laptop backpack, and I’ve been living at this level of minimalism since. The idea is to only own what I need, which allows me to focus more, spend less, travel spontaneously and simplify my life.
Ensō is a writing tool that helps you enter a state of flow. It does this by separating writing from editing and thus making it harder for you to edit yourself.
The text fades away as you type so you can focus on what you want to say instead of how you want to say it.
You can’t select or edit text, but you can download and review it once you’re done.

Simply do the math. If you have 180 friends on Facebook, which seems to be a low amount those days, if your friends take, on average, 10 days of vacation per year, you will have, on average, five friends on vacation every day.

By design, Facebook makes you feel miserable.
