Every single craft has been paying “The Passion Tax” for generations. This term (coined by author and organizational psychologist Adam Grant) — and backed by scientific research — simply states that the more someone is passionate about their work, the more acceptable it is to take advantage of them. In short, loving what we do makes us easy to exploit.

I've seen many people shy away from writing because it doesn't come naturally to them.  What they overlook is that writing is more than a vehicle for communicating—it is a tool for learning.  Writing exposes gaps in your knowledge and logic.  It pushes you to articulate assumptions and consider counterarguments.  Unclear writing is a sign of unclear thinking.  Or as Steve [Martin] himself quipped, "Some people have a way with words, and other people, uh . . . oh, not have a way."

[id: a tweet by @AdamMGrant that reads: “The hallmark of an open mind: not letting your ideas become your identity. If you define yourself by your opinions, questioning them is a threat to your integrity. If you see yourself as a curious person or a lifelong learner, changing your mind is a moment of growth.” /end id]

hijacked by an instant gratification monkey...

 As blogger Tim Urban describes it, your brain gets hijacked by an instant gratification monkey, who picks what's easy and fun over the hard work that needs to be done. . . . 

"Many people associate procrastination with laziness.  But psychologists find that procrastination is not a time management problem—it's an emotional management problem.  When you procrastinate, you're not avoiding effort.  You're avoiding the unpleasant feelings that the activity stirs up.  Sooner or later, though, you realize that you're also avoiding getting where you want to go."

top reads of 2022 and 2023

Of course I meant to publish my 2022 reads before nearing 2024, but here we are. 2022 brought many challenging times, with the passing of my beloved grandmother, and the chosen challenge of starting at a new company after 14 years at my previous one. To work through my anxieties, rereading became a crutch and a sense of comfort for me. That being said, of course I still dove into new reads in…
