    - we're all very focused on self improvement 
    - we have daily standups where we discuss our current improvements. This could be waking up earlier, starting public speaking, blogging, exercise, learning a language, etc. 
    - here's our culture deck: http://www.slideshare.net/bufferapp/buffer-culture-03
