A Look Back at 2022
Another year has gone by, but I always enjoy taking a moment to reflect on everything I accomplished, everything I didn’t, and all the lessons I’ll be taking with me into the new year. Welcome 2023, and Happy New Year!
An Appreciation of Slowness and the Constant Allure of Productivity
The older I get, the more I want to take a moment to appreciate what I have, and how far I’ve come, instead of focusing on what I don’t. There will always be another task, another goal to achieve, but I’m more than a little tired of my productivity-addiction keeping me in a chokehold. It’s…
