2 Listening: A Day In The Life - Brian Auger and The Trinity




3 Watching: Bodies (on Netflix)




4 Reading: Serotonin - Michel Houellebecq




5 Reading: Jesuit priest Anthony de Mello calls you to find what grips your soul:


"You must cultivate activities that you love. You must discover work that you do, not for its utility, but for itself, whether it succeeds or not, whether you are praised for it or not, whether you are loved and rewarded for it or not, whether people know about it and are grateful to you for it or not. How many activities can you count in your life that you engage in simply because they delight you and grip your soul? Find them out, cultivate them, for they are your passport to freedom and to love."

Overtime: 

"You have to live with your mistakes, but you don't have to compound them.

To follow up an error with a foolish reaction is to lose twice. Given the reality of where you are right now, what is the best next action?

A wise response may not erase a dumb mistake, but it can redeem it."

James Clear.
