Welcome back! Im one day late but I’m here!

Every week I highlight 3 stories I read on the topics I write about: Writing, Productivity, Personal Growth, and Technology.

My goal is to:

1. Highlight Medium stories that have had an impact on me, provided inspiration, or prompted reflection — and that will hopefully do the same for you!
2. Highlight stories that deserve more attention (usually from writers with a relatively small audience).
