Why we say “OK”
There’s a two-letter word that we hear everywhere. OK. Okay. OK, are you OK Annie? OK OK OK, OK ladies… OK might be the most recognizable word on the planet. OK! OK. It’s essential to how we communicate with each other and even with our technology. Alexa, turn off the living room light. OK. You probably use it every day – even if you don’t notice it.

A Quick Way To Overcome Addiction
Welcome back to the Tamed Course! We recently came across an idea that has changed the way we look at building habits. This idea makes it easier for you to stick to good habits and avoid bad ones. We call it the "nothing rule." How does it work?
