HAPPY 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY @merchlabs 🥳🎉🙌 A decade ago I had an idea of doing a “YouTube star e-commerce shop” and MerchLabs was born! We were the first real on-demand Merch solution for an emerging market of social influencers and blessed to get in early on the social media boom. On the Jungle Cruise ride, the guy said “Oh an explosion… Let’s go closer” and that’s pretty much how the beginning of our company felt like 💥🔥🤪 The entrepreneur roller coaster is not for the faint of heart but it makes it easier when you have an amazing team riding with you. It’s been a decade of solving problems, testing ideas, iterating and adjusting but grateful for every learning moment along the way. Thankful for everyone that has supported us throughout the years and excited for what the next decade has in store for us! #merchlabs #est2013 #createfreelycreate (at Disneyland) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cogbihar4Nr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

EVENT HORIZON - A boundary beyond which events cannot affect an observer on the opposite side of it. It’s COMMON to see light as is displayed in the majority of the universe but in weird little pockets, light acts funny... The way I see it is if you observe light acting funny, there is probably a great presence of energy nearby. Perhaps this holds true in our everyday lives as well? I meet people and have been in places where the energy is just different. It’s unique, strange and a bit refreshing. It’s EASY to stay on the safe side of culture and follow blindly behind old paradigms built off dated systems. It’s HARD to venture into the unknown and on the path less travelled. I feel that is where the miracles meet you though and when magic happens. 💫✨🤩 I’ve been thinking a lot about this concept of #uncommonauthority and reflecting on some of the successful people I’ve come across. They seem to exercise a unique power over a particular domain. The power ignited and crafted over time as they venture into the unknown. This is where the UNCOMMON AUTHORITY is developed and crafted by uncommon experiences. I love collecting stories of these people and experiences as they challenge me to continue risking as I venture along my journey. Their stories are visual proof to me that light doesn’t always behave according to the accepted rules! Rules change as you venture into the strange!!! VENTURE ON 🙌 “We all have two lives, the second one begins when we realize we have just one.” Play all out, embrace the strange and stay humble along the way. There is no FAITH without RISK. #notetoself #embracetheuncertainty #ventureon #replaceclevernesswithbewilderment #createfreelycreate #zerotoone #eventhorizon #blackholes #spaceisrad https://www.instagram.com/p/B20p8r2luOj/?igshid=1e8bemm2ip4y2
