Monday

Sometimes all it takes is a hot dog and a nice view to finish off a great day. It has been an eventful and exciting first day of the week in the city and I can say its given me the best taste of what is still to come. Having already made 15,000 steps by early afternoon, I’d say its been a success. Now, sitting in Central Park with a $4 hotdog in hand, I can only smile about my experience at our first agency of the week: Wieden + Kennedy. The love and trust in the air between different people and perspectives was both overwhelming and inspiring. The incredible collaboration that was demonstrated was something more than special. I feel I heard insights and advice today that I can use for years upcoming in the start of my career. The foundation of W+K is so simple yet so incredibly important. It was shared is as follows:

“Rules
Don’t act big
No sharp stuff
follow directions
and shut up when someone is talking”

Thanks W+K.
