The Expert Wisdom Of A Haiku


Itsukushima Shrine, Hiroshima, at sunset. A glorious zen like haiku of a moment

I just spent a few weeks on the trip of a lifetime to Japan and here’s what it taught me about B2B sales/comms/crushing it/etc.

Not much really. But possibly loads too. Time will tell.

And the world kept spinning.

LinkedIn kept chugging along. And the AI generated posts piled higher.

I probably missed some things, but realistically not that much.

Sometimes you just need a well-earned break.

And it both relaxed and reinvigorated me in countless ways

Japan is an incredible place that filled my senses in every way.

And the only genuine bit of wisdom I can impart is from this beautiful haiku that I read.

sumire kana

I regret picking
and not picking
violets
