The three insightful sparks that I took away from the conversation I had with Jannik a few weeks back are incredibly powerful once we become aware of them. It's so easy to go with the flow of life and get caught up in what society is driving us towards and what other people are saying. It's hard to take a step back, reflect and align yourself again with the morals and values that are true to you. The three takeaways are:

1. Treat everyone how you would want to be treated. Put yourself in their shoes. Be empathetic.

2. Learn a skill that your tomorrow self will thank you for.

3. Enjoy the process and be 100% present in the moment.

Have a listen to the full-length conversation with Jannik, he is truly a very humbling human being.
