The best time of day to exercise is the time of day you most enjoy exercising, the best exercise to do is the one you enjoy enough to actually do, and the best amount of exercise to undertake is as much as you can enjoy. All of these likely to vary by day/month/year/circumstance

Body positivity is a bit of a sham.
You can't always feel good about everything in life, and that includes your body.

Body neutrality is so much better:
Not thinking about your body at all.
Not good. Not bad.
No pressure to be 'positive.'
Moving forward. Living your life.

Dear managers: pay isn't a carrot you dangle to motivate people. It's a symbol of how much you value them.

Motivate by designing meaningful jobs where people have freedom, mastery, connection, and impact. Appreciate by paying them well.

The point of criticism is not to build yourself up by tearing others down. It's to help others build their ideas up into something better.

Anyone can destroy an argument. You add value by creating a new one or improving upon an old one.

Don't listen to people because you agree with their answers.

Listen because you respect the intellectual integrity they bring to their questions.

You learn more from people who challenge your thought process than from those who affirm your conclusions.
