One of my favourite books is the Alchemist of Paolo Coelho, and I just believe that I can create whatever I want to create, if I will put my head on right, study it, learn the patterns. I just feel very strongly that we are who we choose to be.      source

I spent an inspiring evening with Paolo at his Rio home, around the time we were launching Spotify in Brazil. It was fascinating to talk to him about how this book came to be such a hit — he never backed down, and allowed people to read it for free in order to then boost sales — much like how Spotify’s freemium model was perceived in the early days.      source
One of the first books that profoundly changed my life for the better.      source
