Having less choices is often times more of a blessing than a curse.
It's the same with creativity, the more constraints the better the result. Usually.
Ran my first race yesterday 🥳
Quite happy with the result, now on to the next challenge!
Hey @typefully, just wanted to let you know, that in the “Tweeted” view, the Tweets are only sorted by day and month but not by year. See the screenshot below.
Just preordered the “from consumer to creator”-course by @AlexLlullTW & @AlexMaeseJ. What excites me the most is that it's only 1 hour's worth of content so you can get started right away.
Really looking forward to the launch and taking Twitter more seriously!

I'm gonna start what I call a public idea scrapbook.
In this ongoing thread, I'll share my (crappy) project ideas as I get them, raw and unfiltered. Leave your feedback or build them yourself.
1 tweet = 1 idea
Let's go👇

Usually not a big fan of these self help threads but this one was really good 👇 https://xcancel.com/JoeHolka/status/1524397041048297473
Really like the @Spotify enhanced playlist feature! It kinda makes your playlists feel more like radios. Already discovered some great songs with it 🙌
One of my pet peeves is deleting all the query parameters from an url before sharing it.
Gotta keep them urls clean💆🏻♂️
The new landing page for http://song.pics is coming along very nicely. Really dig these colors 👀
Really dig this button style I came up with for http://song.pics 🤩
Just finished the @vercel http://nextjs.org/learn tutorial, one of the best pieces of docs/learning resources I've ever came across. Gives a broad overview over what the framework has to offer, which makes it easier to dive into the real docs.

I wonder if I should maybe use this opportunity and use Next.js instead of Nuxt this time to get a deep dive into React. 🤔
Do you happen to know any great resources to get started with Next? https://xcancel.com/dominikhofer_/status/1516719778815172609
Brushed up my Vue 3 skills a bit by following a great tutorial by @_EarthIsSquare
Now onto continuing to build http://song.pics 〰

another great quote from my journaling app that really resonated with me:
“a bad day for your ego is a great day for your soul.”

little personal update:
yesterday i ran my first 10k in under 50 minutes – which means i had an average pace < 5min/km 🙌
running is one of the things i discovered this year. feels great to end it with this little milestone :)

you can always choose, what you care about in life. and therefore also what you don't want to pay attention to.
your attention and focus are some of your most valuable resources. don't waste them on the 90% of things that are not worth it.

great quote from my journaling app:
"don't wish for it to get easier. wish that you will get better at it."

little reminder:
no matter what, the sky is always blue. you sometimes just have to wait until the clouds fade away.
this is not only true in nature – your mind and its thoughts work the same.

simple rules for a better life – according to marcus aurelius:
- don't postpone your actions.
- speak so you don't confuse anyone.
- don't let your thoughts wander around.
- don't let your soul become passive or aggressive.
- not everything in life should be about business.
merry christmas everyone 🎄
enjoy the time with your loved ones!

i laughed more about this than i wanna admit… https://xcancel.com/fromarsetoelbow/status/1473960843230519306
if i've learned to enjoy one thing this past year, it's going for a run in the evening.
the obvious side effect is better fitness in general and also better endurance.
but what i've vastly underestimated is the effect this habit has on my mental health.

on being happy.
don't postpone your happiness.
don't wait until all your problems are solved and your todo list is empty to become happy.
enjoy the present moment.
enjoy the journey, not the destination.

currently going through @Wattenberger's “fullstack data visualization with d3” – here's my first scatterplot 🙌
i especially like the color scale in the plot. it was really impressive to see, how easy you can map numbers to a color range in d3.

just stumbled upon this great video from @AliAbdaal again, where he talks about 5 principles of stoicism.
it's where i first learned about this ancient (but still relevant) philosophy. if you've never heard of it, i highly recommend watching the video 👇
just wanted to upload zeitgeist. to the chrome web store, but there was an issue with setting up the developer account.
reached out to support – now i hope the issue gets resolved soon, so that i can finally launch the extension here on twitter.
keep your fingers crossed 🤞
done is better than perfect.
i'm constantly struggling with this myself. but it's definitely something we should tell ourselves more often.
just finishing something is way better than trying to perfect and then never publishing it.
i've visualized an idea from the book “the art of the good life” every day for 52 days straight.
here are my 10 favorites of the “52 surprising shortcuts to happiness, wealth, and success”.

stop being a consumer. start being a creator. https://xcancel.com/IAmAndrewKirby/status/1466348045759500296
internal success.
true success comes from within. to reach it, focus on what you can influence and ignore the rest.
input instead of output. the latter is – in the end – a total coincidence.

the end :)
ego.
it sounds harsh, but you aren't as important as you think you are. that's why you should always stay humble.
not letting your ego dictate your actions and thoughts is one of the most important measures to live a good life.

sturgeon's law.
“ninety percent of everything is crap.”
– theodore sturgeon
this applies to almost anything in life. also to your own thoughts and feelings.
try to differentiate between ideas and good ideas, investments and good investments.
