I Keep Hearing That Working From Home Is The Future — And It Bugs Me to No End

Introvert paradise — that’s how I’ve heard the current work-from-home situation called. Obviously, that only applies to those of us lucky enough to still have a job. Regardless of how anyone personally feels about being at home versus being at the office, having the chance to continue working is nothing…

How to Decide if You Should Quit Social Media

I used to think leaving each and every one of them was the obvious thing to do for me. Of course, it’s more complicated than that. — It’s no secret — as of recent years, social media has been increasingly demonized. Just a few months ago, Netflix's documentary The Social Dilemma has made headlines and prompted many to bin their accounts.

Don’t Worry, AI is Never Going to Turn on Humanity

That doesn’t mean you should not be concerned. — I summoned my Google Assistant and asked her to play a song for me while my hands were busy with cooking. She put on the wrong song. So I called her stupid. “I’m so sorry, it won’t happen again”, was her reply. I immediately felt guilty for insulting her (I…

How to Read Purposefully and Remember (Almost) Everything You Learn

Simply reading a book cover to cover might not quite cut it. — Hey. I know why you’re here. You are a voracious reader but can’t seem to remember what you read. Your shelves are probably stocked with books you’ve already finished, yet you can remember very little — if anything. This used to be me, up until recently. I eventually got fed…

How Working From Home Has Impacted My Life So Far

It’s not all sunshine and rainbows. — As a result of the pandemic, I’ve been working from home since last spring.

Why the Words We Use to Define Ourselves Matter

Just who do you think you are? — I used to partake in much negative self-talk. After being bullied most of my teenage years, I didn’t have much in the way of positive things to say about myself. This carried over to the first years of my adulthood. Ugly. Dumb. Clueless. Hopeless. And the really heartbreaking thing is…

How Stress Can And Can’t Help You With Your Side Hustle

The right stressors will help you immensely — if you let them. — In the name of having multiple income streams, I’ve spent the past few months starting up a side hustle. I’m not co-founding a big and ambitious startup. Instead, I’m working on a couple of personal projects at the same time. One is a small piece of software that I intend…

When you feel productive, you’re primed to succeed. — I love checklists. It wasn’t always the case. I used to store most stuff in my head, and mentally mark my tasks as completed.
