Sentence 120



--> --> BeforeToday, healthcare providers have to push the boundaries to stay ahead of the curve[AL1] . [AL2] 





 [AL1]This is a mixed metaphor. Please rephrase.


 [AL2]‘To consistently push’ is a split infinitive. So have removed 'consistently.

Notes:

Mixed metaphors are defined here.

After
Today, healthcare providers have to try harder to stay ahead.

Sentence 130

Before Sometimes even one motivated person can bring about a big change. After Sometimes, all it takes is one person to make a difference.  Notes Inserted a comma after 'sometimes'  Changed the sentence to pack in a punch.

Sentence 84

Headline Before - A sneak peak into life in Pyeongchang beyond the #Winter Olympics. After- A sneak peek into life in  Pyeongchang beyond the #Winter Olympics Notes #wordchoice Peak vs. peek

Sentence 66

Before However, I believe there are a few truths that the frenzy over growth hacking often tends to gloss over or miss. After However, in all the frenzy raised by growth hacking, I believe there are a couple of truisms that are often glossed over. Notes: Truth vs. Truism - Word Choice few truths vs. couple of truisms There were only 2 truisms raised in the article from which I took the 'before' version. So I felt it more appropriate to say 'couple of truisms'. Rephrased the 'after' sentence for clarity of thought and expression.
