Hi friend!
Here's something for you to...
1) watch.
What Makes People Successful?
A lovely review of the book The Unfair Advantage: How You Already Have What It Takes to Succeed.
In the book, Ash Ali argues that success is the combination of fair play and a series of unfair advantages—things like location, parents, and other biological factors.
2) read.
Dear Sugar
A friend recently gifted me Tiny Beautiful Things by Cheryl Strayed (author of Wild).
It consists of incredible Dear Sugar columns. Each one has either made me laugh out loud or tear up.
3) use.
Athletic Greens
I've been drinking this supplement shake every morning for a year.
It's just a plethora of vitamins and nutrients our bodies naturally lack. It tastes great and is a lovely way to start the day.
4) listen to.
fuck this
My favorite Bill Burr rant.
It's short, hilarious, and wildly insightful.
Extras.
Some of my blogs.
The story in all of us
On the shit we make up in our heads to keep us from taking action.
Think again
On the power of changing our minds.
Cliches are true?
Lol what a cliche.
The battle between emotion and logic
Who will win?
We're all different, we're all the same
My favorite realization I've ever had.
