Critical Thinking Unversity League TablesAll of the skill universities are meant to be teaching students on full display on their front lawns and they call in politicians and law enforcement rather than celebrating their students. It might be time to use your own critical thinking to decide what league tables are really based on?

How comparison crushes usThe most destructive habit that holds us back and that we can land ourselves in at any stage of our development.. no one is immune ... even me! 

Forget blanket statements on technology being 'bad' for us ... it's how we use the tool for our well-being which determines our mental health. We can't assume that if you have a smartphone you have anxiety, depression and concentration challenges. Use pick-up data, notifications settings, scheduled downtime and nighttime mode to change your habits. Change your practices for good well-being, engagement and a learning tool - and then change your parents! 

I love it when I'm proven right ... even if i need to wait a decade for the research to prove my innate knowing on how best to create a secure society!
