I'm very antischedule. Except for board meetings, I don't really schedule things or keep a calendar. I think appointments are caustic to creativity.

You guys are more talented than anyone in the Tumblr office or in Palo Alto or Sunnyvale. We're constantly in awe, constantly in service.

People tell me I need an assistant, but I dont want one.

Tumblr was simply a tool for anyone to make a blog like mine.

Rituals, even unhappy ones, provide a measure of comfort. Like a superstitious ballplayer who will only use certain bats, my depression rituals have become a fixed, normal part of my life. ... I need rituals to prevent unnecessarily rocking my already shaky emotional boat.

Find a space where you can be creative and a place where you are open for free thinking, you want to enjoy what you are doing and do what you are best at.

Reading for me will be a combination of books, magazines, Tumblr, and just kind of the Web in general on the iPad.
