Free access to my best insights on productivity, self-improvement, fitness, spirituality, and life lessons
2023’s been a rollercoaster of rollercoasters.
Stepped into a ring. Flew for the first time. Took over a publication. Hit rock-bottom. Quit my 9 to 5. Meditated 100-hours in 10 days. Launched my own journal. Broke up with “the love of my life.” Had an out-of-body experience. Found my spiritual path and “guru”. Unlocked “selling” after years of hating it…
And a lot more — that I’ve unpacked in an honest and vulnerable end-year review and reflection article.
This article (or shall I say “Article of Articles”?) is different.
It’s a hand-picked curation of 23 of my best 2023 articles — with the intent to help you turbo-charge 2024 in all aspects of life.
I’ll be sharing free friend links for each — to allow you to bypass the paywall if you aren’t a Medium member yet.
With no further ado, let’s dive in.

Practical (Non-Cliche) Productivity
Pop productivity has 2 polar opposite camps:
- The unnecessarily and unrealistically complex — 30-step routines, fancy paid tools, and convoluted note-taking apps.
- The worthlessly simple — 2-minute “hacks,” “micro-habits,” and “affirmations.”
While the former’s unrealistic, the latter is ineffective and low-ROI.
P.S. Bullet journaling is the only 2-minute daily habit that proved needle-moving and high-ROI. The rest were all ineffective “feel-good” shams.
True productivity is built upon “boring” principles, habits, routines, and systems.
That’s exactly what these 5 articles cover — in an exciting manner.

From The Heart…
As Paulo Coelho said in The Alchemist, “Remember that wherever your heart is, there you will find your treasure.”
What stems from the heart touches other hearts — and that’s how we recall and relive the humanity we often miss in the mechanical modern day.
