Hello, my friend!

 

I hope you’re doing well! Things have been (as always…) beautifully busy around here with my three kiddos, so I’m delighted that I’ve found a few minutes in which to share this week’s Top 4 with you. I hope you enjoy!

 

 

FOOD FOR THOUGHT OF THE WEEK

 

“Unhappiness is not knowing what we want and killing ourselves to get it.” – Don Herold

 

PROVIDING VALUE > IMPRESSING PEOPLE

 

“Focus on what provides value to others, not what impresses others.

“Other people spend about as much time thinking about your lifestyle and accomplishments as you spend thinking about their lifestyle and accomplishments. Which is to say, not much time at all.

“The things we do to impress others rarely impress them for longer than five minutes. But the things we do to provide value for others can last a lifetime.

“In the long run, one of the most impressive things you can do is provide exceptional value.” – James Clear

 

PAPER > SCREENS (via Adam Grant)

 

“We learn more from reading on paper than on screens.

“Fifty-four studies, 171,000 people: we process print more deeply than digital content – as long as it’s informational rather than purely narrative.

“The paper advantage holds across ages and has grown over time. Long live physical books.”

 

DAD JOKE OF THE WEEK

 

“Told the waitress my coffee tasted like mud. She said, ‘It should. It was fresh ground this morning.”

 

Time for me to get some non-mud-tasting coffee! Have a fantastic rest of your week!
