I talked to a friend who wants to start a blog and wanted some advice on that—how to find her voice and so on. A few random thoughts:

Once you realize that your most important job as a parent is to be a good role model, you go, oh, good dear. I need to improve. And that means kids are a wonderful forcing function for living a richer better life.

said this to a friend but it applies to many: i think you have a good guess what you should be doing. no need to overthink it! just execute on your inkling for 3 months, and then evaluate if you want to try something diff. course correct more often than that eats your bandwidth

"Don't think, look!" might be the most useful piece of writing advice you can squeeze into 3 words. So much bad writing comes from people moving words about on the page, instead of staring at the real thing and then adjusting their words to fit it.

if you have a full long and healthy marriage, you're going to talk to each other for at 20,000 hours, so having good conversations is a pretty high value thing https://t.co/jUhbqHihMg
