Hey Pauline! I love that you’re expand and trying new things. Can’t wait to see what the YT channel brings. What I’m reading? I just finished Old man and the Sea for the first time (Yes, I’m behind… a lot), and I’m currently plowing through The Road by Cormac McCarthy right now (A ridiculously gorgeous read). Before those, I read Atomic Habits- to light a firecracker under my ass for this year…and It’s working—I recommenced it. Hope all is going splendid and I will try to talk soon.
damnit.. I meant expanding! Man that reads dumb now.
Haha! Happens to all of us.
How was Atomic Habits? I watched a James Clear interview recently & have been following his newsletter. Not bad!
Take care, man.
I thought his system was easily broken down and impossible not to follow (basically common sense written out for you)—a structure anyone could follow. I recommend it!
