Some golden nuggets for you
Mar 13, 2022 12:31 pm
Your time is precious.
Each week I gather my favorite nuggets and test them out.
Asking for each, “Is this worthy enough for the newsletter homies?!”
Most often, that answer is nah.
So I keep diggin’ until the answer is hell yeah.
This week’s new segment is called “Golden Nuggets” — to give you more time and happiness.
🟡 Golden Nuggets
- Library Extension - find free versions of books (via library or digital version)
- Put dryer sheets everywhere! (I keep in athletic shoes, luggage, bottom of trash cans)
- Unroll.me to unsubscribe from emails (except this one of course)
- Hold down space bar on iPhone when typing to move the cursor
- Video Speed Controller Chrome extension to speed up videos
Which is your favorite?
👨🏫 New Zoom, Who Dis?
My friend Allison (also a newsletter reader, hi Allison!), invited me to hang with her middle school class this week.
She’s teaching a “Happiness Week” (where was this when I was in 7th grade?!). And asked me to chat about goal setting.
So I embraced my inner Owen Wilson (greatest classroom speech ever) and got to work.
The rundown: breathwork, emotion-setting exercise, then walked through this Happiness Goal Tracker I made them.
Real talk, was blown away by how mature and level-headed these kids were. So fun!
Wish I learned this earlier.
💪 Weekly Challenge: New Experience
Last week, I'd never taught a 7th-grade zoom class.
This week, I’ve never taken a hip-hop dance class… but just signed up. 🕺
What’s something new you’ll do? (hit reply and let me know)
Stay loose, stay liquid, laugh a lot.
