Book cover for The One-Number Budget: Why Traditional Budgets Fail and What to Do About It
The problem with snapshots is that they only mark one moment in time, and there’s always an outlier expense that throws the whole thing for a loop. This isn’t your fault. It’s just how life works.

“Remember that the next time you’re tempted to feel guilty for setting a boundary at work—you’re a true team player because you’re helping to create a workplace culture in which everyone thrives.”
Melissa Urban, The Book of Boundaries: Set the Limits That Will Set You Free

“You will have to build a home no matter where you are. You will have to decorate and settle and reach out. You will have to find rhythms and routines. You will have to be vulnerable, and you will have to be seen.
 
There is nowhere we can turn to that is an escape from ourselves.”
Brianna Wiest, When You're Ready, This Is How You Heal

Hunter Clarke-Fields
“Meeting your own needs for sleep, exercise, meditation, and time with friends is essential to living a happier life as a parent. Plus, you are modeling how to live life for your child.”
Hunter Clarke-Fields, Raising Good Humans: A Mindful Guide to Breaking the Cycle of Reactive Parenting and Raising Kind, Confident Kids

Tiago Forte
“Anything you might want to accomplish—executing a project at work, getting a new job, learning a new skill, starting a business—requires finding and putting to use the right information. Your professional success and quality of life depend directly on your ability to manage information effectively. According to the New York Times, the average person’s daily consumption of information now adds up to a remarkable 34 gigabytes.1 A separate study cited by the Times estimates that we consume the equivalent of 174 full newspapers’ worth of content each and every day, five times higher than in 1986.2 Instead of empowering us, this deluge of information often overwhelms us. Information Overload has become Information Exhaustion, taxing our mental resources and leaving us constantly anxious that we’re forgetting something.”
Tiago Forte, Building a Second Brain: A Proven Method to Organize Your Digital Life and Unlock Your Creative Potential

“It tells us that all is not as it seems and that everything we experience is but a filtered version of everything that we could experience.”
Ed Yong, An Immense World: How Animal Senses Reveal the Hidden Realms Around Us
