Romantic comedy drama About Time (2013), written and directed by Richard Curtis, and starring Domhnall Gleeson and Rachel McAdams, tells the story of Tim, a young man who discovers a family superpower of being able to travel back in time, but finds that meddling in the past creates more problems than it solves.

I saw it for the first time when it came out, in 2013, with my wife, at the cinema. It was around the time we started WeLab, which was at the beginning of 2013. Those were very stressful years. Being an entrepreneur is one of the most stressful things you can do. We’ve grown WeLab from a very small start-up of two people to nearly 1,000 people and 50 million customers. There have been so many ups and downs. The pressure never goes away; you’re always worrying – and the bigger the company, the bigger the worries.

This is why it’s such a meaningful movie to me. It’s a little movie that tells its story in a witty, quirky way, but it’s about very large topics. When his dad tells (Tim) that he has this superpower, he really has to think hard about what he wants to do with it. His dad recommends that he doesn’t use it to get money or for success in his career. Tim’s reasons for using it are all about love.

He discovers the meaning of life, and it’s related to his wife, his kids, his sister and his parents. The film talks about something so big, but it makes it seem like a trivial thing – what’s profound is spending time with his family. The movie is about treasuring the people around you.
