In this encouraging piece from the Harvard Business Review, we see a glimpse into the quite common occurrence of individuals feeling stuck in their careers and lives, and what it often takes to get beyond this. Drawing from a variety of books, the article articulates the unfulfilled lives many people find themselves in, and provides a framework for reaching further. By building skills in a variety of areas, being self-analytical about one's own passions, and knowing that massive success does not have to be achieved early, we can see that many of the dark horse success stories we hear about follow a similar trajectory.

What is abundantly clear throughout this piece is that change comes incrementally, and often later than we are lead to believe. When we commit to following our passions and living lives that matter, we unlock endless possibilities for our future.

In line with the changing environment of business, as well as the ever-present push for early success and specialization in schooling and beyond, this article tackles a seemingly simple but quite complex situation for teaching younger generations: the role of technology in education.

For many teaching the youngest generations, technology remains new and is often a convenience, but we at times take for granted what it would mean for our students to completely remove technology from the classroom for a day.

See what one school is doing to break down the rise in student dependency on tech, and the anxieties it leads to. 

This list, which led to a TEDx Talk and subsequent bestselling book of the same title, effectively summarizes some of the choices we all can make to build our own resilience. Matching well with our tenants of an entrepreneurial mindset, the list shows how we can direct our lives towards more positive outcomes. 

While not exhaustive, the 13 points to consider help better frame what power we all have to be healthier, happier, and more fulfilled.
