I'm Unfinished by Design

Written by Andre Molnar 5/27/2025

What I value

I value staying curious. I value learning. I value new ideas and new experiences.

I love to connect what I learn in new and interesting ways. I love creativity and the act of creating.

I want to work on things that matter. Not for praise or prestige, but because the work itself feels worth doing. Making things better—clearer, kinder, sharper—is its own reward.

The people I walk with matter just as much. I seek out those who are still becoming, who meet change with interest instead of fear. Close friendship, creative companionship, honest momentum—Yes! please!

This isn’t branding. It’s direction. This is how I move through the world.

If you crave clear impact, high-trust collaboration, and the thrill of perpetual sharpening, welcome aboard. Different coordinates? Different path—no harm, no hold-up.

My North Star — Always Becoming

Growth isn’t a checkbox; it’s fundamental. My direction of travel is defined by learning, experimentation, and the freedom to change course when new information appears or old views stop serving the world I see. Call it intellectual integrity. Call it adaptive identity. Either way, the promise is clear: I reserve the right to change my mind.

The reward for walking isn’t status; it’s a wider horizon. Titles may accumulate, but they’re mile-markers, not destinations.

Supporting Currents

Connection

Everything is linked—people, projects, outcomes. Work that matters respects everyone and everything involved. I invest in relationships that leave room to breathe, share momentum, and make each other sharper. Independence and closeness aren’t opposites; the right partnerships multiply freedom rather than restrict it.

Creative Impact

Titles and trophies don’t drive me—impact does. I measure success by clarity gained, problems eased, and systems that serve more fully. If applause follows, great—doorways open wider when people clap. But the work—whether art, code, products, or service design—leads. My creativity lives in systems as much as ideas. I lead teams, shape platforms, and design services that don’t just function—but feel right. It’s about building things that resonate, solve real problems, and evolve under changing circumstances.

Flexible Security

Stability is useful; rigidity is dangerous. Security —income, housing, health, status, even belonging— is always desirable, but never permanent; you have to be ready when conditions change. Control what you can. Adapt to what you can’t. Calm comes from competence, not from protectionism.

Conditional Courtesy

Respect matters. Conformity, not so much. Grace should never be mistaken for agreement, nor silence for submission.

Center — Freedom with Devotion

At my center is a paradox: I guard my independence as fiercely as I share of myself. My wife, my family, my friends, and my closest collaborators are not constraints; they are amplifiers. We give each other space to roam and reason to return. The center is where independence meets loyalty and both grow larger.

Closing — On Growing Up

What do I want to be when I grow up? Unfinished—on purpose. Mature enough to stand firm, curious enough to keep moving, humble enough to be changed by what I learn, bold enough to share the road. If that sparks something in you, let’s walk a while and see what we can build. If you build teams, systems, or experiences that need both clarity and imagination, we should talk.
