It’s Thursday, kiddies: the day when I roll out a few things I’ve been reading over the past week. Three of ‘em, to be exact. Enjoy. (Remember: click on the bold print to read the entire article.)

One of the saddest mistakes in time management is the propensity of people to spend the two most productive hours of their day on things that don’t require high cognitive capacity (like social media). If we could salvage those precious hours, most of us would be much more successful in accomplishing what we truly want.

This Teacher Has Each Student Write Themselves a Letter…Then Sends It to Them 20 Years Later. (via 22 Words) Absolutely fascinating. Every student needs a Mr. Farrar in their life.
