Still Looking for the New Normal
I suspect that we are settling into a new abnormal by now; making do and improvising. What was simply a challenge early on is becoming a chore or a source of daily frustration. Our work/creative cultures have been upset and replaced with options that are barely viable. I am sure you have seen the mass of information being published about how to take care of yourself and your teams. There is some valuable information out there, but there is just so much of it that I am begining to just tune it out. All the advice on how to deal with stress is starting to stress me out. Well, for better or worse, you will find no such advice here. Just some interesting and beautiful things that have come across my desk recently. I hope you have a great weekend and enjoy the links below.
