Carl Jung wrote this line in one of his later works, somewhere in the 1950s, and the line has, since, become one of those quotes that floats around the internet attached to various images of solitary figures looking out windows. The line gets quoted, in most cases, as a piece of moody literary observation about ... Read more Read more ›

You already know this version of yourself. The one who responds quickly, explains things clearly, holds the thread of a meeting together. The one who doesn’t visibly fall apart. The one who, when someone asks how things are going, gives a considered answer that leaves the other person feeling reassured rather than burdened. You have ... Read more Read more ›

Somewhere in a New York office, in the spring of 1925, a man sat down at his desk to write, then strapped a wooden helmet over his head before he started. The helmet was lined inside and out with cork, then sheathed in felt. Three small panes of glass that were set in front of ... Read more Read more ›

There is a particular piece of self-development advice that, on the available evidence, almost nobody gives early enough in adult life for it to do the work it could otherwise have done. The piece of advice is to stop trying to be understood by everyone. The advice sounds, on first hearing, slightly callous, slightly cynical, ... Read more Read more ›

There is a particular kind of clarity that arrives, in some adults, somewhere in their fifties or sixties, that the wider cultural register has not, on the available evidence, developed particularly good language for.

Scroll Instagram or YouTube for ten minutes and you will be told, in various tones, that discipline is the answer. Wake at 4 a.m. Cold shower. Hard run. Don’t negotiate with yourself. The difference between the people who make it and the people who don’t, you’re told, is that the people who make it do ... Read more Read more ›

For years I assumed freedom was something I’d eventually arrive at. A few more career rungs climbed, a few more by-30 boxes ticked, and the feeling would land. I’d get to finally relax into being someone who had made it. What I’ve noticed, in waves rather than all at once, is the opposite. The closest ... Read more Read more ›

The first time a machine answers your pain beautifully, something strange happens. You know, technically, that nobody is there. No breathing body. No attentive face. No therapist noticing the tremor in your voice or the way you make a joke exactly when something hurts. And yet, the answer arrives. Gentle. Immediate. Organized. Calm. It does ...

After I submitted my latest doctoral paper, I sat on a bench in the university park for about twenty minutes and felt almost nothing. Not relief, not pride.

Imagine this. You’re forty minutes into a piece of work. The thinking is finally clicking, the sentences are starting to land in roughly the right order, and you can feel the shape of what you’re trying to say. Your laptop pings. A Slack message. You glance at it — it can wait. You turn back ... Read more Read more ›
