Notes from the Post-it Wall | Week of December 13, 2025

by David Himmel

• Pragmatics will always save you.

• Confidence is never more important than when tearing off cling wrap. If you’re not fully convinced you can do it, you won’t.

• If you’re not feeling the Holiday Spirit, turn on Elvis’ Christmas album. That’ll do the trick. Every time. Guaranteed. Try it. You’ll thank me. You’ll thank me very much.

• There is always sun behind the clouds. Clouds dissipate. Then they return. Life is weather.

• Sometimes you have to go to blows to get to a solution. I’m referring to emotional battles, not violence. Conversation and understanding are the weapons of peace.

• All good opinions have proof in their DNA.
