Three Neat Things

ISSUE 027 | January 2023

Hi friends!

I'm rolling into work in the new year with the attitude of ‘better done than perfect’. Hard for a perfectionist, but I'm a work in progress. I started updating my website with this motto, teasing out my ‘why’ rather than my ‘what’, which is so easy for us to fall back into. When was the last time you asked someone you just met about what motivates to get them out of bed rather than what they do for work?

Anyway, this fortnight's newsletter also has a better done than perfect summer vibe - with a bit of new press for one of my clients, what I've just started listening to, and a productivity supercharge for your computer.

A great sustainable renovation by EME Design in Northcote is featured in the January issue of Home Beautiful. The existing home was rated at less than 1 star, and the new home is 6 star – no easy feat, given it is very hard to improve a double brick heritage home (as it's not possible to retrofit insulation in the cavity).

Conversation topics span human behaviour, monetary/economic systems, energy, ecology, geopolitics and the environment. The goal of the show is to inform more humans about the path ahead and inspire people to play a role in our collective future. Guests are from a wide range of scientists, leaders, activists, thinkers, and doers.

If you're a Mac user, this is a productivity supercharge for your computer. Better Touch Tools is a third party app that can enhance your mouse, trackpad, touch bar, keyboard, and more, with actions far beyond those Apple included. It's not free, but for the price of a couple of coffees, I think it pays its worth back in no time at all, especially if you're a productivity geek like me and are always looking for workflow improvements.
