“Razors” are rules that help you make better decisions. 15 of the most powerful razors you should know:

An exceptional summer wardrobe…

7 questions to ask every day: 1. Is this in my control? 2. Is this necessary? 3. What's the worst case? Am I prepared? 4. Where can I do better? 5. What habit bonfires am I fueling? 6. How can I make the best of this? 7. (When people irritate you) When have I acted like that?

Hundreds of people are lined up on the streets of Cape May to transport the books of the Cape May library branch to the new location in the old Franklin Street School, set to open today after an extensive renovation.

If you want momentum, you’ll have to create it yourself, right now, by getting up and getting started.
