Further
Health - Wealth - Wisdom
There’s something incredibly humbling about being slapped down by illness. You think you’ve got your life in control, and then life shows you that you have nothing of the sort. The positive thing about my recent bout with viral ugliness is that I came out of it with renewed clarity. You can never take your …
Greetings from the land of Influenza! As I said on Facebook, I don’t remember ever being this sick, but since I’m having a hard time remembering five minutes ago, who knows? It looks like I’ll live, but I’ll be taking it easy to make sure I don’t relapse. So let’s keep this short and jump …

Here at Further, we’re all about the science. Just notice how may of the entries below include the words “study or “research” in the description. That bias toward empirical findings supports my “no guru” policy — no woo woo or fluffy motivational stuff from people with more personality than facts. So, if it weren’t for …
If you’ve been following Further for a while, or my podcast Unemployable, you know I think “should” is a dirty word. For some reason, the things you should do never seem to be the things you want to do. I’m not talking about having a brownie instead of working out, or parking your kids in …

I read Designing Your Life: How to Build a Well-Lived, Joyful Life over the holidays, so the beginning of 2017 seems like a perfect time to look …

Welcome to the first Further of 2017 — thanks for being here! To kick off the new year, let me tell you about the new category I’m adding to Further. In addition to resources that enhance your health, wealth, and wisdom, we’ll also explore travel. Now, you grammarians out there know that when talking about …
Well, 2016 is almost over — and I’ll be glad to see it go. We lost a lot of great people this year, and maybe a lot more than that. Now more than ever, it’s time to realize that the only things we can control in this crazy world are our actions and perceptions. On …
You’ve heard it before: When you do not have your health, nothing else matters at all. That’s an easy enough thing to agree with. When we’re unhealthy, just getting through the day can be tough. You’re not exactly in the frame of mind to become your best self. That quote has been attributed to many …
