  What if trying to fix yourself is the problem? The Self-Improvement Machine Open your phone. There's an app for your sleep. An app for your steps. An app for your water intake. An app for your meditation. An app that tells you how focused you were today—yes, that's a thing. There's a podcast to make you more productive. A book to make you more confident. A course to make you more successful. A coach to make you more everything. We live inside a self-improvement machine. And it never stops. You wake up. Check your sleep score.

His company just gave him "Employee of the Quarter." Last month, he called me. 11 PM. His voice was flat. ...

  The Weight of Choices: How a Single Decision Can Rewrite a Destiny By Otun Stephen Gbenga | Philosopher & Theologian Life is a series of doors. Some we walk through without thinking. Some we push open with excitement. Some we regret even touching. But every door — every decision — shapes us. Some choices are small but loud. Others are big but silent, changing us quietly from the inside out. Human freedom is one of God’s greatest gifts… and one of our greatest responsibilities. Because  choices build destinies .
