Learning To See Progress Beyond Just Looks (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Somewhere along the way, most of us learned to measure our progress by what we see in the mirror. But the mirror leaves out almost everything cool and interesting. Ryann , Jess Gordon , and Nic get into why looks are so easy to nitpick, where all that pressure comes from, and how to start measuring progress by something other than your reflection.
