The Muse sends out a newsletter every Sunday, highlighting various articles that can help us work hard, live smart and play often. I used to peruse the articles sometimes, but for the most part, I was rather skeptical of the advice they had to offer. However, this past week, I have been having a quarter life crisis, if you will, and went back to those newsletters to find some inspiration and a sign to keep on keeping on. Here were some of the ones that stuck with me, in true Muse format:
