Welcome back!
We published our third YouTube video this week: Rethinking Productivity: How to Focus & Stay Energized.
It's a look into my favorite framework for managing my time, energy, and attention.
This week, I’d like to introduce a new format into the One Percent Wisdom mix called Monthly Highlights.
At the end of each month, I’ll share one thing I've watched, read, and listened to that I think you might like.
Disclaimer: In the Information (Overload) Age we live in, I find it stressful to keep up with all the articles friends share, TV series that are “must-watch”, and all the rest of it. I don’t want to add to this, but at the same time, I do love sharing what's inspiring me.
Consider this is a guilt-free invitation to check out the highlights below, pursue any that excite you, and forget about the rest. The last thing any of us need is to feel guilty about not reading some new book :)
Alright, let's go!
ONE THING I'M WATCHING
🎬 The Painter and The Thief
This is an incredible documentary that follows the story of a painter in Oslo who loses her two most important works to a brazen act of daytime robbery. Curious to understand what would drive somebody to commit such a crime, the painter asks the thief if she can paint a portrait of him upon his release from prison.
The story that follows is engrossing, illuminating, and thought-provoking. It made me think about redemption, forgiveness, and trauma in new ways.
ONE THING I'M READING
📚 Bravey: Chasing Dreams, Befriending Pain, and Other Big Ideas.
If we’ve talked to each other in the past month, I’m sure I mentioned this book. A memoir by Olympic runner-filmmaker-actress-poet Alexi Pappas, Bravey is an incredible read that touches on grief, hope, courage and perseverance.
It’s entertaining, deeply moving, and everything in between. This book made me think differently about relationships, mental health, chasing goals, and finding my place in the world.
