Follow Your Heart!

There is no reason not to follow your heart…This is absolutely true and – as I tend to rationalize too much – I do have to remind me every time that my intuition doesn’t let me down! This brings me to some very inspiring quotes from Steve Jobs. My favorite one is about that we need to […]
