December 21, 2020 No Comments

Journaling is one of the best things I’ve done in life. And in this article, I share my best tips.

Since I started journaling, I’ve improved my self-knowledge, happiness, and achieved more career success. I highly recommend it to everyone who’s serious about personal growth.

December 14, 2020 No Comments

I used to think that positive affirmations were nonsense. I’m not alone. Most of my friends truly can’t stand them. It just reminds you of the corny self-help audiotapes from the 80s and 90s.

And many of those corny affirmations are still around. The other day, I stumbled upon a picture of a sunset with this on it: “I radiate beauty, charm, and grace.” That stuff doesn’t resonate with me.

During the coronavirus pandemic, I’ve been working more than usual—especially at night. Apparently I wasn’t the only one.

A survey with 10,000 respondents showed that Americans devote about 35% of their time savings to their primary jobs. And most of us save a lot of time during a pandemic.
