Do you remember when you joined Twitter? I do! This month, ten years ago!
I am celebrating by blogging about it đ
Great article I read about proactiveness
Yesterday I came across the following tweet by David of Raptitude, one of the few blogs I read and recommend.
The article in that tweet is a great read regardless of your life situation.
If you are dealing with challenges, you should read it to learn how to turn around your situation.
If your life is already great, you should still read it as it serves as a great reminder of the things you got right and shouldn’t forget.
Fibre, finally!
Candid advice
This wise man has read my mind.

My New Year Day
Jingle Bells : Remote Work Version
For reasons I can’t explain, I love to hear Jingle Bells song. The tune just feels nice.
When my son was a toddler, I used to sing this one for him. I still love to sing this one even now and I don’t think I will ever get bored with it.
My son’s class was on stage recently for the last school assembly before the school closed for summer break. The kids performed this Kiwi version of Jingle Bells song which I totally loved!
To top it all, Automattic, my awesome employer and proponents of remote work, produced this cool remote work version of Jingle Bells. Check it out!
Farnam Street Blog
Listening to Matt‘s podcasts is one of my favorite ways to spend my free time. I wish I made a list of all Matt’s podcasts I heard over the years. But somehow I missed that. And it is too late now.
Anyway.
Last night I listened OFF RCRD episode with Matt (transcript). It was great to hear him mentioning Decision Journals and Farnam Street Blog. He also mentioned Brainpickings and On Being blogs. They are great as well, but I deliberately keep the list of blogs I read short.
I started reading Farnam Street Blog only recently when someone at work shared this great post on Habits vs Goals. I liked this post and many others on this blog and feel like I am learning a lot.
I bookmarked the post on decision journal and will check it out once I finish reading rest of the books I have on desk at the moment. Besides decision journal, I am also excited to learn about mental models.
Learned a few new mac tips from here, a link I originally found in this tweet.
There is always something to learn.
