Just a quick update… When I first started writing for Genuine Thriving, I had read that it was important to not have too many categories (especially when you’re starting out). As a result, I stuck to about 10 or 11 different categories. Now that I’ve written over 200 posts, I thought I’d look at some of the more popular tags, to see if any ‘categories’ might have emerged from them. It turns out, there is! I found a number of tags that I thought worthy of their own category, so you’ll see a number of new categories in the list.
I felt that some of these categories were subcategories of other categories. So, you’ll see the “Wisdom” categories has “Perspective” and “Fresh Perspective” under it. That’s because I think that these categories belong to the bigger category of wisdom. Quotes certainly makes sense as a subcategory of history as does ethics a subcategory of philosophy (and Twitter of technology). I put psychology under science (and I’m sure some folks who strongly disagree!), but after having studied psychology for 6+ years, I certainly think it’s a science.
Lastly — education. I thought about putting it under science (or) philosophy, but it didn’t quite seem to fit. So for now, it’ll be it’s own category. If you’re looking for where the “categories” appear on this page, scroll down a bit and look at the sidebar on the right-hand side. You should see them. Hope you enjoy!
