Reading & Writing Month at The Mission

Dear Reader,

We’ve just wrapped up October, which was Education Reform month at The Mission. ICYMI, you can checkout some of the best stories on Education Reform we published here.

It’s November, which means the year is rapidly coming to a close. Thanksgiving, the Holidays, and Christmas are coming up… Also, it’s National Novel Writing Month for all of the writing nerds out there (like us! ;)). We’re obsessed with books and reading (just like so many of you) so… that’s a roundabout way of the calculus we used, that got us to…

Welcome to Reading & Writing month at The Mission!

To follow along and make sure you don’t miss any story about reading and writing, bookmark this story. Just like last month, we’ll post the best pieces we publish over the month about reading & writing… right here.

To everyone who entered our giveaway last month, thanks so much! We’ll be announcing winners in our email newsletter.

Also, if you haven’t yet subscribed to our email newsletter (which goes out on M-F), that’s where we’ll be announcing the new contest for November. Let’s just say we have some crazy prizes in the works, and you’ll be glad you checked it out.

Thanks for reading! As always, let us know what you like, don’t like, or how we can be doing a better job to serve you. And happy reading & writing month from all of us at The Mission!

Best,

-Chad Grills

Founder of The Mission

Self-Education: Teach Yourself Anything with the Sandbox Method

At no point in history were you more capable of teaching yourself anything than today. Picking up new skills has become as easy as firing up Google, doing some research, practicing in the right ways, and pushing yourself through the plateaus. But despite this incredible access to information, few people take full advantage of the opportunity they have for self-directed learning.

How are you feeling?

Still in a sugar coma? Yeah, we are too. Regardless, we hope you had a great and safe Halloween! 😜
