Commuting post-Covid
Whitecollar workers gained time, money, and freedom while shedding daily stress.
The future is in-person
I think LinkedIn's new hybrid office is a blueprint for future companies, large and small.
Itโs perfectly fine if you think your work gives life meaning
I've always struggled when people say that 'it's just a job' because I think your job, your work, your daily devotion and focus... those things should give you meaning.
Be valuable to the people you meet
Recently I was asked by a soon-to-be-be college graduate, "What's the best advice you have for someone entering the job market?"
Is the person you hired the person you hired?
In a world of remote teams, I have a feeling we're going to be seeing more instances like this in the future.
The slippery slope of side projects
Do I really want to dedicate substantial time over the next five years to this side project, or am I hyper-fixating on that dopamine hit I get when I start something new and exciting?
Too siloed a focus inhibits opportunity
When you are too siloed in your focus, you miss out on opportunities for personal and professional growth.
Two weeks became forever
Remember that โชtime at the beginning of the pandemic when we all said, "we're all going to work from home for two weeksโฆ"
Physicality sets boundaries
I, too, have found my โrhythmโ of at-home work/life, but I think that most people are ready for at least the option of non-home-workspaces.
