February Month-in-Review

What I've been learning and reading

Every month, I try to distill what I’ve been learning and reading. This is as much a practice for me as an offering to you. As a thank you to paid subscribers, I’ve got more extensive reflections on these lessons and readings.

This month, I’ve been learning:

1. Don’t make major life decisions when sick.

2. Life times time.

3. Habits are hopeful—and hard.

This month, I’ve been reading:
