From the April 17, 2019 issue of Further According to a recent LightStream Survey conducted by the Harris Poll, Generation X has the most debt when compared with Boomers and Millennials. Worse, 22% of Gen Xers feel that they’ll never be able to pay it off. It’s a tough situation. And it doesn’t get easier …
From the April 10, 2019 issue of Further When I procrastinate on important things, I tell myself that I don’t feel I’m ready to do that particular task.

From the April 10, 2019 issue of Further “Working relationship” is the ultimate oxymoron when you’re dealing with a micromanager. Or a victim, slacker, or critic for that matter. And it does matter, because going to work with a pit in your stomach is the worst … and nowadays we count on our jobs to …
From the March 27, 2019 issue of Further New research from MetLife reveals that Gen Xers are less happy, empowered, and respected at work compared with Boomers and Millennials.

From the March 27, 2019 issue of Further Nobody in their right mind in Los Angeles would consider doing this: I started commuting to work — even though I’m a freelancer. I’ll concede that “right mind” combined with “Los Angeles” may be an oxymoron to some. But that’s not the point. Like more than over …
From the March 20, 2019 issue of Further Nowadays, work is not necessarily a place you go so much as it is something you do — hopefully with passion and purpose. The rise of remote work is real, with over 60% of U.S. jobs done at least partially from afar. So much for the myth …

That was (not coincidentally) about a year …
From the March 13, 2019 issue of Further My recent fitness journey has not been all rainbows and unicorns. It’s important to share the frustrations as well as the successful changes, because it’s not the successes that lead you to quit.

From the February 27, 2019 issue of Further As a kid, I was confronted by mom’s favorite George Bernard Shaw quote every time I opened the refrigerator: We don’t stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing. It’s true that without imagination, wonder, and risk-taking, things get old, fast. Embracing …
From the February 27, 2019 issue of Further As a resident of weed-legal Colorado, it’s been a bit amusing to watch CBD-mania catch fire in less tolerant jurisdictions.
