The Drawbacks Tee Arnold Bennett, How to Live on 24 Hours a Day (1908) "Any change, even a change for the better, is always accompanied by drawbacks and discomforts." Arnold Bennett wrote How to Live on 24 Hours a Day as one of the earliest self-help manuals. He's not interested in pep talks. He tells the truth: even good change hurts a little. Drawbacks and discomforts show up even when you're doing the right thing. This isn't a t-shirt. It's the admission fee for progress. Design — "The Admission" Any sits as a whisper above the rule—soft start. CHANGE dominates the center in all caps with an underline. "even a change for the better" drops below in lighter tracked caps—the gentle clause that acknowledges why you're doing it. "is always accompanied by" sits in small type; then drawbacks and discomforts land in bold italic.
