Also, I\u2019m in the same situation. Adopted with dads fixing and building things, lefty. I look at the world and I\u2019m like, <em>\u201cfolks, this needs some tweaking\u201d<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Like I would always be more interested in a country challenges than its culture or food. In a very Steve Jobs style I\u2019d say I don\u2019t care about that, I care about finding elegant and efficient solutions. I feel this drive for a better world.

It\u2019s the worst feeling to me. It\u2019s going to make me search for a solution until I reach for one that makes sense for as many people as possible, would it be for personal issues or public housing problems. I just love designing for us. I don\u2019t get the <em>\u201cdesign for yourself, first\u201d<\/em>. That\u2019s so short-sighted and obvious. <\/p>\n<p>To me it\u2019s better if everyone around is happy too, maybe that makes too much sense I don\u2019t know but I don\u2019t feel like it\u2019s a shared value around and it\u2019s freaking me out a bit sometimes.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll find teams, hopefully. I\u2019ll find people so that maybe I can scale up my projects and build more, following my design from the sound level to the business model.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes I wish I was a tall, white asshole.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I remember reading on Steve Jobs, adopted child who having seen his father neatly fix things around became who he was, a psychopath of solving problems forever, in a way that they don\u2019t come back, almost.
