Why Do We Write? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“We don’t read and write poetry because it’s cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.”These words from Dead Poets Society have always fascinated me. Perhaps it’s because I consider myself somewhat of a writer. Stepping into the role of a poet-philosopher, pe
The DNA of Resilience: Two Strands of Belief (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“Resilience isn’t the measure of your strength or perseverance; it is the measure of your belief. The belief that no calamity can stop you.”All my life, if there was one thing my harshest critics and warmest well-wishers agreed upon, it was my resilience—the will to face the end, but never lose hope.

History provides the stark answer—over the arc of human civilization, women have disproportionately drawn the short straw.But was this power imbalance baked into our biology, or was it a tragic byproduct of our shift to a sedentary, farming lifestyle?The Paleolithic Reality: Co-Authors of SurvivalTo find out, we have to look past
The Architect’s Dilemma: Why Good Economics is Often Bad Politics (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There is a logical assumption we tend to make about democratic governance: if the economy is failing and people are jobless, the ruling government will fall. By inverse logic, a government that oversees strong economic indicators should easily win reelection.Yet, history shows us this is not always true. Across the globe, governments that have successfully steered their nations out of economic despair frequently find themselves voted out of office.To understand why, we have to look at the sheer
