The enlightened woman (or man) is best advised to read newspapers only for the purpose of testing the temperature of the unthinking majority of the day and the weird constructs of the editors of these publications. Of course with good humour some laughter may be provided.

Trust your own judgement and continue to develop it.

Read about history.

Think of improvements and leaps forward in the world around you.

Take the higher ground and promote it.

I assure you this will provide infinitely increasing rewards.
