GOOD MORNING
🤖 The gist
I've got 419 things on my to-do list.
This weekend, I will be intentional about my time and cross off three.
It’s an action-packed agenda.
Up first, hang out with our friends’ six-month-old son. Chilling with the little guy reminds me of the simpler things in life.
Later on, another buddy and his children will swing by for dinner. His wife will tag along too, but you can’t win ‘em all.
After that, it's time to kick back and relax. I'm going to do nothing for two days.
It's a lost art I used to practice a lot more. Then life happened. I’m not going to worry about UAVs, expensive chicken wings, or demanding designers for the rest of the weekend.
Did I mention I'm leaving my phone on my desk? Yeah, I'm going off grid.
Try it out for yourself after you’re done with today’s edition.
LOVE IT
