Hygge (pronounced “hoo-guh”) is a Danish word that captures the feeling of quiet contentment, warmth, and bein at ease.
Have you felt this way recently? If yes, great. If not, perhaps worth asking why.
Ambition and hygge can absolutely coexist but not until we are intentional about it.
In 1948, Ferruccio Lamborghini founded a tractor firm in postwar Italy. Starting with just one tractor a week, he built a large tractor business, producing thousands per year by the mid-1950s.
Wealthy from that venture, he began collecting luxury cars, including Ferraris, but he found the clutch system to be unreliable. Evidently it was the same used in his tractors.
He approached Enzo Ferrari with a suggestion. Ferrari reportedly replied:
“Stick to tractors."
Lamborghini got to work. In 1963, he founded Automobili Lamborghini.
By 1966, the Miura debuted: low, sleek, and widely considered the first modern supercar.
