    KARIMANIFESTO:

    1. Don’t specialize

    2. Keep your desk neat, clean, and empty. This means you are
    staying on top of everything.

    3. Treat employees and clients the way you would like to be


    treated by them

    4. Return every e-mail, phone call, and fax the same day it arrives
    regardless of where you are in the world

    5. Before giving birth to anything physical, Ask yourself if you


    have created an original idea, an original concept, or if there is
    any real value in what you disseminate

    6. Know everything about the history of your profession and then


    forget it all when you design something new

    7. Never say ‘I could have done that’ because you didn’t’.

    8. To be is to build (Heidegger)

    9. Unveil an actuality – create a surprise, a phenomenological


    event

    10. Good Karma

    11. Observe everything, everyone, AND EVERY MOMENT

    12. Work is fun, beautiful and rewarding

    13. Don’t work with someone if you sense different views,


    because you believe there is potential because there probably
    isn’t

    14. There is not potential in everything or every project

    15. Don’t work on your weaknesses, work on your strengths


    16. If you do not like your job, quit!

    18. If you are not talented, do something else

    19. Reduce the carbs – take the fillers out of your life

    20. Carry one credit card and no coins

    21. Own 30 pairs of same color socks and 30 pairs of the same
    colored underwear so that socks always match, and do your
    laundry every month

    22. For everything you buy, you must give away the same thing–
    so you always stay at equilibrium and never accumulate more
    than you need

    23. Don’t consume or overeat because you are depressed

    24. Consume experiences, not things

    25. Do 6 things at once (multi-task), then you will never be bored

    26. Don’t use words like taste, class, boredom, style, ugly, or
    mass

    36. Being famous should not be a priority –work should be

    37. Pay your dues – learn from others

    38. There are 3 types of beings – those who create culture, those
    who buy culture, and those who don’t give a shit about culture.

    39. Work is life

    40. Think extensively, not intensively

    41. Think Relaxed, not rigid

    42. Omni Vincent Amor, Omni Vincent Amok

    43. Experience is the most important part of living, and the

    from our experiences.
