6 articles to help you live better
Hello future grads, post grads, and everyone in between. :)
We’ve now published 11 stories since we re-opened last week.
I’m really excited about the momentum we’re building, and I feel great heading into 2023.
Here’s a few stories we published recently that I really love.
Our Most Emotional Story
Want To Live Better? Savor The Mess, Do Stupid Sh*t, And Embrace It All
This piece from Vincent Van Patten is a hard-hitting roller coaster of emotions and wisdom. Think of it like a cold shower — it does a heck of a job waking you up! His article can be summed up by this brilliant sentence:
“Savor the mess. Do stupid shit with your friends. Spend the money on souvenirs and rollercoasters. Look like a fool. Take pictures of everything.”
Our Most Shocking Story
I Worked For Free For An Entire Year After College
Carmen Ballesteros tells us the story of how she worked for free for an entire year as an event manager. And she wasn’t alone. 20 other people also did the same thing. It’s a shocking read you’ll burn through in no time.
Work-Related Stories
We published three beautiful stories this week talking about freelancing, 9–5 jobs, and content creation. Here they are:
- 5 Urgent Things All Freelancers Must Do To Survive The 2023 Recession
- I Thought I Was Too Cool For a 9–5 Job — Now I Know Better
- There are Only Two Ways to Become a Full-time Creator
The authors of these pieces, in descending order, are Varun Khadri, Alvin Ang, and Shawn Forno.
Read the first if you’re a freelancer. Read the second if you’re wondering whether to quit your 9–5 job. Read the third if you want to make full-time money online.
One For The Road
The Killer Strategy for Never Giving Up, by Thomas Strider is the perfect article to read as we head into 2023. How do you choose what goals to pursue in the new year and which ones to ignore? Thomas has the answer.
Cheers to all of our readers who are slowly but surely coming back to us.
We’re so happy to have started this publication up once more.
Much love, and Merry Christmas!
