The other day I came across a meme. One of those bold beach signs with even bolder advice:“Don’t even think about looking backwards. You’re not going that way.” Okay, motivational sign. I see you. I get it. Forward motion. Eyes on the prize. Focus, future, yadda yadda. But […]
This morning, as I sipped my coffee and prepared to wrangle my inbox (and my spirit), I was reminded of a delicious little tweet from back in January 2022. Sam Altman, the AI guy with vision and caffeine-fueled ambition, had just introduced the world to ChatGPT. “Give it […]
What are the most important things needed to live a good life? We all remember Maslow and his now-famous hierarchy of needs. Good ol’ Abe gave us that trusty triangle, reminding us that before we can become our fullest, most radiant selves, we must first be fed, housed, […]
