“Studies show people overestimate the amount of happiness things will bring them, and underestimate the long-term positive effect of experiences. Drive a Hyundai, and take your wife to St Barths.”
A beautiful dissection of factors that relate to happiness, definitely worth a few mins of your time

“Be more articulate than they expect. Nicer in person than they would have thought. Have more ideas than interns usually do. Make honesty a policy where few do. Be in way better financial shape than anyone would guess…”
One of the recurring statements we hear today from motivational speakers is fake it till you make it, Ryan shares another side to this ideology. Like everything in life “balance” is the name of the game. Ryan shares why you shouldn’t fake it till you make it. Its a lil longer than the other articles but its worth the read.
