If you’re not able to say what you want, don’t be surprised when you don’t get it.

A concept I’ve been thinking about lately: if you’re not getting better at something, you’re probably getting worse at it. Lots of applications to this, from skills of all kinds to just how you show up as a human every day.

After being encouraged by influencers to “love your work,” some aspiring girl bosses have discovered that work does not always love them back.

So sad to hear about Heather Armstrong. Anyone who’s ever published a blog—of any kind—was influenced by the trail she blazed. We are all better because of her candor and bravery.

Studies show that many office workers would benefit from standing up at their desk, walking outside, and never returning.

A powerful life hack is to stop caring about what other people think of you.

I love the brutal opening to this article. “On Thursday, April 20, Elon Musk made a rare move: He delivered on a promise.”.

Just thought I’d check in to see if anyone’s nominated me for House Speaker yet. I figure it’s just a matter of time, right?.

There’s a difference between “being disruptive” and bringing destruction. I worry that @elonmusk has overlooked the distinction in his recent treatment of Twitter employees—and I say that as someone who used to like both Twitter and Elon.

I wouldn't have been surprised if the Queen had lived to 120, but in the end it seems we all have the same fate. RIP.

Last night I dreamed I "found" two chapters of my book manuscript that haven't actually been written yet. I was really excited for about 10 seconds after waking up.

What are some good things about dying? I’ll start:. - Better than not having been born.- Whatever you want to do has a built-in deadline.- Whatever pain you experience will one day end.- Possibility for afterlife or reincarnation.- If you're reading this, right now you're alive!.
