The History of the Holstee Manifesto

In our first step as a company, Holstee’s founders, Dave, Mike and Fabian sat together on the steps of Union Square in New York to write down how they define success. The goal was to create something they could reflect back on if they ever felt stuck or found themselves living according to someone else’s definition of happiness.

In 2009, the words of the Holstee Manifesto took form in a bold letterpress poster with the help of designer, Rachael Beresh. Not long after it began to take the internet by storm, with the Washington Post calling it “The Next Just Do It”.

In 2010, we created the Lifecycle Video above as a homage to Manifesto while celebrating the diversity of bicycle riding in New York City.

The Manifesto has been translated into 13 languages (and counting!) with the help of our worldwide community, including Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Polish, and Hebrew and Arabic.

In 2012 we launched MyLife to collect the many stories people were sending in about how they chase their dreams, live their best lives and how they have chosen to redefine success in their own terms. Years later, it is monumentally encouraging and inspiring to see how many people with which the words of The Holstee Manifesto have resonated. We are honored, proud and humbled to have such a remarkable community that surrounds and supports Holstee.

Above all else, creating the Holstee Manifesto has confirmed for us that with genuine positive intentions, anything is possible.

Monday, February 1

Winter Walk:

Students go out for first recess.  They eat snack and go to the washroom BEFORE going out. 
After recess the students line up and we go for one lap around the playground with the kindergartens. 
We then proceed out the gates onto Booth Street and walk to Dows Lake. I can lead with my class and maybe have the Grade 6 class bring up the back. 
When we get to Dow’s lake we will take a walk around and see if there are any sculptures or sights to see. 
Then we will head back up Booth street HOME!
*This is a working document so changes can be made:)
Not sure yet where the mascot will be so that will be worked into our plans. 
When we return there will be cups with hot chocolate waiting in your classrooms.  Hot water will need to be added to the mix.  Then serve!
Students will eat their lunch and talk about the wonderful walk they just experienced!
This probably sounds a lot like our Terry Fox Walk – because it is!!!
That’s all!!!
Thanks Sandra for putting this together!!
