Marie Well

I’m Marie Well, as in healthy well. At least, that’s my aim—to get well and make you well. We all have woes, from breakups to cancer to hoarder houses. I’m here to fix those woes—with tips mixed with my own tales.

Why read me? I’ve got a track record of fixin’ stuff. I’ve cured myself of anxiety. For a decade, I had anxiety attacks that struck almost daily. When not stricken, I’d write Voice articles, mostly on how to combat stress.

And then my world changed. One week went by with no attacks. A month. A year. Two years. And counting.

Now, I want to skyrocket our health—and bolster our creativity. After all, nothing soothes better than strokes of paint or tones of music or reps in a gym.

So, let’s get fit, creative, and well with Marie Well.

How to Inspire

Once, there was the belief that exceeding a four-minute mile sprint was impossible.  But one man broke it.  And then many others followed.  The view was that the belief was what made it possible.  But could it be something else—like widespread changing fitness or diet regimes?  Or maybe it was both belief and something else….

Traits of Star Employees

What makes an employee a star?  If you’re like me, you’ve learned that giving 100% is by far the best option, whether it be for work, school, or fitness and health.  Giving anything less cheats us out of the best possible life.  But what are the traits of these 100% star employees that we should… Read more »

Why Give Your Studies Your All?

Did you know that giving something your all makes life easier—not harder? The more you study, the easier studying becomes.  The more you exercise, the easier exercise becomes.  And the more you run marathons, the easier marathon running becomes. It’s not a matter of willpower.  All that willpower hype is a lie.  You don’t need… Read more »

How to Be a Happy & Productive Worker Bee

Today I saw a quote that changed my life.  It was a job description that went something like, “You must have a long list of failures and at least as many strategies for bouncing back.” What kind of an employer would want to hire someone with a long list of failures? A highly successful one!… Read more »

How to Balance School and Work

If you work and study, you might have an edge.  It’s said that busy people can be relied on to get an extra task done.  But you’ll need to find a balance between work and school, one ideally where school should be prioritized.  An education, after all, can mean the difference of tens of thousands… Read more »

Learn or Create—What’s the Sweet Spot?

Lifelong learning is a gift, isn’t it? But what if we spend so much time learning that we don’t create anything? I read a shocking statistic.  It said we should spend two-thirds our time creating and one-third our time learning how to create.  Stated differently, we should spend two-thirds our time doing and one-third our… Read more »
