The Holstee Manifesto: This is Your Life.

by Jenny • September 21st, 2010

This image, taken from the Holstee company manifesto, is making its way around the Internet and I love it so much I couldn’t help but re-post here. Apologies if you’ve already seen it a few times…but then again, it seems like the kind of message that we can never hear too much.

    Wow, what a beautiful post. Thank you for the super kind words!! Dave, Fabian and I sat down and wrote this the first week we started holstee to help define what it meant to us. A year later continues to be a great reminder of why we started it and a guide for the future.

      Hey Michael! What a fun surprise to hear from you :) And it’s so cool to get a little sneak peak into what inspired you to write the manifesto – it is absolutely incredible. You and your team seem awesome — consider me a new fan! I wish you the best of luck with Holstee (and everything else) – and look forward to hopefully staying in touch :D

    Hadn’t seen this before and it made my day. A piece of motivation for tired times.

      Karina – I’m so glad that this was just what the doctor ordered for you this
      week :) Happy (almost) Friday!

    I love this because the direction it is going is forward. Life is a choice and you have to live it, not watch it. So many people sit on the sidelines and complain, but just a change in attitude and perspective can make the biggest difference in the world.

    I saw something like this in a Kirkland’s today.  It had some of the same sentences, but others were different.  Have you seen the other one?
