dishonour & debasement

Sometimes when I see polish people who went abroad, I'm really ashamed because of them.

e.g. this middle-aged woman:

I have one, but very useful advice for my fellow countrymen:
please, learn language before you decide to emigrate.

A thousand thanks!

Relax, just do it.

It's a day, when I definitely can not force myself to get to work or start doing something.
Whatever, it's lazy Sunday.

A little bit of culture

Some time ago I wrote an email to the Creative Director from the ads agency in the USA.
I asked him about career opportunities for foreign people.

After just a few seconds(!) he answered me:

Hi,

Ad agencies in the US have always been open to hiring foreign creatives. However, I will tell you that it is easier for foreign art directors and designers to crack the market than copywriters. Obviously, to be a copywriter in the states you must has a good command of the English (or Spanish) language.

If you are fluent in speaking and writing in English or Spanish, you just need good work to get a good job.

As far as working at an American agency, I suspect it's just like anywhere else. When it's good, it's very good; when it's bad it's very bad.

Let me know if that helps! Great to hear from you!

Don't lie to yourself, If I wrote an email to one of the polish Creative Directors, I have no doubt, they won't write me back.

Sadly but truly.
Anyway, have a nice Saturday.

Move up and let me sit down!

I saw a film about Hong Kong and truly don't know what to think about this city.

What about you? Do you want to live in China? And, is it a good place for advertising people?
I'm not sure. Still persist in moving to USA or Canada or New Zeland...

If you want to see the film, it's available here:

Stop fighting with yourself

I wrote the very next chapter of my book, and I'm so proud of myself.
I deserve a prize for this :)

BTW, I decided to meditate every day.

Are you ready for consciously breathing?
inhale - exhale - inhale - exhale - inhale - exhale

Is it OK?

I’m wasting my time for nothing.

After the next sleepless night, I woke up about 12 pm. Now hours go by so slowly.
I know I should write something but I can’t pull myself together :(
Yesterday I thought that I have to do sth with myself to take control of my miserable life. That’s why I decided to go on a diet. Goodbye carbohydrates!

The strategy for the evening and the night: make a new strategy of myself.

The chance

Hi guys,

I had a job interview today. The agency was nice. I think it went good and general impressions was OK.

In the end of the meeting they told me: If the answer will be – yes -, we will call you; if - no – we will send you an email. So ... I’m looking forward to HEARING from them.

Keep your fingers crossed!

Waiting for better times

Another denial has just befallen me.
It must be told - really don't know what they are expecting me to do.

This is the beginning

It’s the fact.
Not in the least The Word as God's body, but they give me a sack.
January is cruel to me, but I’m not gonna to resign myself to one's fate.
I’ll be fighting.
