Here is your weekly dose of The Sunday Spark ⚡️ a newsletter listing 5 inspiring things I thought were worth starting your week with: |
|
3. ✍ Visit https://www.futureme.org/ to write a letter to your Future Self. Schedule the letter to return to you at specific time frames. My sister used to do this when she was pregnant. I wonder if she still writes those letters. This exercise helps us connect to our future selves, which is key to achieving goals. |
|
4. 🎧 I am excited about a new podcast: The Hidden Brain: It explores the unconscious patterns that drive human behavior and questions that lie at the heart of our complex and changing world. |
|
5. 💞Compassion is a skill that we can develop towards ourselves as importantly as towards others: |
|
“When we practice compassion toward a person who is suffering, we feel motivated to do something to relieve their pain. We don’t want to punish the person or make them feel worse. We want to help. We want them to know they are not alone in this. Consider this the next time you are feeling pain yourself. How would you react if your friend or loved one was in the same situation? Try to react with kindness rather than irritation or disappointment that you are suffering, and see if you are able to soothe your pain a little more.” ― A Year of Self-Love |

Some cool resources I personally use, love and recommend, with discounts just for you: - I like to start the day with my personalized Momentum Plus tab, which helps me stay focused with a powerful mantra, an inspiring image, a to-do list, countdowns to big dates, and world clocks where I keep an eye on time zones of friends and family living abroad before contacting them. Being a newsletter friend, you would get a special offer of a 10% discount when you subscribe to Momentum Plus with the promo code: bardees.
- Enjoy a free month of the Readwise app, it is the BEST way to retain the knowledge you gain through reading. Using spaced repetition, it helps you remember your highlights from kindle books/articles you read.
