# My best articles

Hi there, James Clear here.

You recently signed up to my free email newsletter. Thanks again! 

In today's email, I want to show you around JamesClear.com and recommend some of my best articles to you.

I've been writing at JamesClear.com since 2012, and articles are the bread and butter of the website. The central question I explore through my work is, “How can we live better?”

In other words, I want to find great ideas and explain them in a way that is easy to use and apply to daily life.

I've published more than 250 articles on topics like...
