“And You, Helen”
A poem about war by a British writer that fought and died in WWI, selected and read by the great Douglas Murray. Click here.
Worth Quoting – from James Clear:
“It’s hard to save poor early decisions with good late decisions.
-It’s hard to write a bestselling book if you chose an unpopular topic.
-It’s hard to build a happy marriage if you married an unhappy person.
-It’s hard to make money in real estate if you overpaid at the beginning.
“Certainly, things can be improved by making good decisions along the way, but the effects of poor early decisions tend to linger.”
