“People say that time flies and it doesn't. What happens is it goes by unaccounted.”- Matthew Dicks
Matthew Dicks is a 61-time Moth StorySLAM champion, 10-time GrandSLAM champion, and elementary school teacher. He told Lenny that his 'Homework for Life' practice — writing down one meaningful moment per day — started when he realized he could only remember 89 days out of 365. After 12+ years of the practice, he says his kids 'feel 14 and 11 to me. They don't feel like they were just born yesterday.'
