Here is your weekly dose of The Sunday Spark ⚡️ a newsletter listing 5 insightful things I thought were worth starting your week with: 
 
 
1. 🕰️If you have relatives abroad or courses online in different time zones that you want to attend live, this website is the nicest time zone converter I have lately used. It also shows moon phases if that's something that interests you too. Enjoy.
 
 
2. 💪 25 Habits That Will Guarantee You Success. While I think some pieces of advice in here are harsh, especially if you are hard on yourself already, you still can't deny the surge of motivation you will feel reading these 25 habits from Ryan Holiday's latest book, Discipline is Destiny.
 
3. 💻 A brand new Arabic newsletter I'm enjoying is جرعة إلهام from my friend Rania Bader. Subscribe now to know why I took a course with Rania last year and why you should. I loved this article from her, which is a nice contrast to the masculine energy in the spark above.
 
5. 💬 Andy Warhol inspired Gretchen Rubin's quote: "What we do every day matters more than what we do once in a while":
 
“The things I do every day take on a certain beauty and provide a kind of invisible architecture to my life. Andy Warhol wrote, “Either once only, or every day. If you do something once it’s exciting, and if you do it every day it’s exciting. But if you do it, say, twice or just almost every day, it’s not good any more.” ”
― Gretchen Rubin, Happier at Home

Some cool resources I personally use, love and recommend, with discounts just for you: 
 
  1. 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.
  2. 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. I am in love with their new reader feature. Reading online has become a top-notch experience thanks to Reader. Get one month free using my link.
  3. I have been using Exist App for years as a digital journaling tool to track my mood in relation to my productivity and health choices. Try it out.
  4. I use Rescuetime to track my digital productivity. Rescuetime tells me how much I spend on email, Excel sheets, meetings, and nonwork activities. I have been a happy client since 2014.  

Note: some of the links above may be affiliate links, but always keep in mind that I don’t endorse anything I don’t use and love myself.
