Somehow I Manage
The Office Musings: Work, Productivity, and Self-Improvement
Hello, I'm glad you're here!
Welcome to my corner of the internet. As a fan of The Office, I wanted to create a blog named after Michael Scott's unfinished book on business, Somehow I Manage. My focus is to tie in the themes from the show, apply real-life topics that we can talk about, and build productivity tools to help us manage them. Somehow, we manage.

My creative writing space. I love the Office and sometimes I try to write topics around different episodes. Some have more Office references than others, but all are topics around work, life, and self-improvement.
