Why It Works

It Speaks to Universal Truths
The Holstee Manifesto resonates deeply because it articulates what we all inherently know but often forget in our busy lives. Its clear messages ("Do what you love," "Life is about the people you meet") cut through the noise of everyday life to reconnect us with what's important. The words remind us to seek meaning and authenticity, and challenge common ideas of success that can leave us feeling unfulfilled. By reminding us to measure life in experiences rather than possessions, the Manifesto inspires us to live more intentionally.

What You Surround Yourself With Matters
Psychology research confirms that our surroundings influence how we think and act. Unlike digital inspiration that disappears when you scroll, having the Manifesto physically in your space means you'll actually see it day after day. Each time you glance at it—whether consciously or peripherally—these powerful words recalibrate your perspective. Over time, you might find yourself naturally making choices that align more with what's truly important to you.

It Grows With You
The impact of the Manifesto lies in its timelessness and adaptability. Different phrases can resonate at different life stages, making it a living document that changes as you grow. When you're thinking about changing jobs, you might focus on the part that says, "Some opportunities only come ones, seize them." When times are tough, you might find comfort in the words, "Stop overanalyzing, all emotions are beautiful." Because it has many layers of meaning, the Manifesto stays important through all of life's seasons, providing exactly the wisdom you need, right when you need it.

Why should I buy the Holstee Manifesto poster?

The Holstee Manifesto wasn't created as merchandise; it started with a simple yet profound moment. Dave, Mike, and Fabian sat on the steps of Union Square in New York, scribbling down their personal definition of success. When they turned these words into a bold letterpress poster in 2009, something remarkable happened: it became a viral sensation that has inspired millions worldwide. Over a decade later, these words continue to resonate because they speak to universal human desires for meaning, purpose, and authentic living.

With translations in 13 languages and counting, the Holstee Manifesto has proven its universal appeal across cultures. The incredible response continues to humble and inspire us, proving that with genuine positive intentions, anything is possible. When you display this poster, you join a worldwide community of people committed to living intentionally.

What is the LoveYourBrain Foundation about?

Founded in 2014 by brothers Adam and Kevin Pearce, the LoveYourBrain Foundation champions resilience and community support for those impacted by traumatic brain injury. It offers evidence-based programs worldwide to empower individuals and caregivers and foster inclusive healing and growth within the TBI community.

When you purchase this limited edition print, you're not only adding a beautiful piece of art to your home but also supporting an incredible organization that envisions a world where everyone affected by traumatic brain injury can fully access their resilience, connect with a compassionate community, and reach their full potential.

When should I give this as a gift?

This poster is perfect for life's big transitions. It's great for college grads diving into the "real world," friends starting new jobs or businesses, housewarming gifts, milestone birthdays that make you go "whoa," or retirement parties. The Manifesto is both a beautiful piece of art and a philosophical guide, ideal for anyone facing big decisions or needing a reminder of what really matters. People tend to keep these displayed for years, so it's a gift that keeps on giving.
