Chula's advise for the day.

a) Staying really angry at someone is basically letting them live rent free inside of your head. Let it (them) go.

b) Did you kill anyone today? No? Then it was a good day. Years back I use to take my work home and let it eat me up. Then a story broke about SUV tires exploding and people dying in crashes. Seems a tire QC guy somewhere was alerted that a batch of tires were not so good. He made the decision to ship them anyway and people died.

In the moment it took to read the story my job all of a sudden became pretty f*cking menial.

c) Whether you know it or not there's people somewhere who really love you and would be absolutely shattered if you were no longer here. Like knife in the gut shattered. Think about that every day. And then reach out to them and talk.
