The best advice ever is old, simple and pure. The master of simple words that pack a punch, Ernest Hemingway said it best.
Keep learning, breathe deeply, sleep deeply, feel pleasure but feel all your feelings because you bloody well can. And yeah, we’ll all be dead soon enough.
And for all you worrywarts (myself included) here’s another nugget from Hemingway.
“Worry a little bit every day and in a lifetime, you will lose a couple of years. If something is wrong, fix it if you can. But train yourself not to worry: Worry never fixes anything. ”
If you like to write and worry you’ll never be able to write like Hemingway, there’s an app for that. The Hemingway Editor
Hemingway App makes your writing bold and clear.
The app highlights long, complex sentences and common errors; if you see a yellow sentence, shorten or split it. If you see a red highlight, your sentence is so dense and complicated that your readers will get lost trying to follow its meandering, splitting logic — try editing this sentence to remove the red.
You can utilize a shorter word in place of a purple one. Mouse over it for hints.
Adverbs are helpfully shown in blue. Get rid of them and pick verbs with force instead.
Phrases in green have been marked to show passive voice.
You can format your text with the toolbar.
And yes, spring is coming…and that is the best advice ever.
