Apple Music has a pornography problem regardless. I used to (stupidly) browse through Apple Music's "New Music" just to be presented with images that I wouldn't want shown on my TV if I happened to be casting in the livi

Actually, a legacy can honor death by focusing on what is lasts rather than what doesn't. My children and my children's children—generations upon generations will have been shaped in some part by me. That's where my focus oug

Reading "Just Listen" by Mark Goulston was helpful. But really, developing a habit of listening. I think one of the things that's hard is that we are so used to always working, going, learning, building. We measure and improv

Sometimes slumps are best handled by doing something completely different for a while. Take up a hobby: write, start going to a gym, research a skill in a completely different field. Slumps don't last forever, but sometimes the best wa
