Dear all,
返到嚟呢個空間,發現自己都幾miss分享我嘅Goofinds(果然係老師家族愛learn and teach)。
前年突然停寫,當時未搵到自己節奏,要顧多一個newslettert太demanding又吃力。事隔年幾兩年,整頓好自己,亦吸收咗好多嘢,趁住新一年reboot埋呢個Newsletter,都希望大家會搵到滋養到自己嘅成份。
另,本菇進入2024後已經把握時間全力進入Work Momentum。經過呢幾年嘅fine tuning,大概已經訂立到自己一個最有效嘅routine同自律方法,希望今年可以再不斷更新進化。
因為Reboot後第一個Newsletter, 決定曬冷將自己近期最最最最鍾意嘅事物拋出來。之後個format會loose少少,會比較flexible同隨嗰個禮拜嘅flow。
Enjoy!
1 / 2024 START!
一年開始,大家可能自細都習慣寫吓啲New Year's Resolution或者Goals,
但九成人未到二月已經棄船,有幾多人真係會照住做、做得完?
唔想再重複過去嘅mistake,可以改變吓自己做法,呢個video step by step教你點樣先set好自己嘅Yearly goal(從ten year goal說起)
然後一路drill落去到Month,Week同Day,reverse engineer咁訂立每個禮拜每日自己應該點用啲時間先可以真係完成到自己嘅yearly goal。
我已經試咗,好似真係清晰好多,你地都可以睇吓啱唔啱自己。
(我知有啲人未必有心gee睇咁多英文,或者我之後拍個Lifetools講解下啦)

2 // Tom
上年其中一個Best Find係Tom Rosenthal,唔記得有無介紹過,是但啦。
佢最近出咗新album,一如以往會喺youtube upload一條full album video陪大家一齊由頭聽到尾(好想抄佢😎)。
佢嘅音樂多數inspired by生活好瑣碎嘅事,但又有種好簡單純粹嘅感動,
聽得多啲喊苦喊忽大時代大道理嘅歌,不妨聽吓呢個British爸爸對生活嘅微小觀察。

4 ////Tetragrammation with Rick Rubin
上年最鍾意Podcast沒有之一。
睇完Rick Rubin嘅"Creative Act"已經覺得自己好似執到寶咁(《威廉》都全靠佢本書先寫得完♥️)。點知驚喜不斷,仲出埋呢個咁好聽嘅podcast,真係好聽到癲啊omg。
佢好叻訪問人,說到底都係因為好叻聆聽,搞到我都心思思想開返個一對一對談podcast(實不相瞞,三年前菇武門podcast只係happy意外,其實本菇一路最想係做一對一format嘅podcast)。
搵咗最多人識嘅一集TOM HANKS做clickbait,但其實最好聽唔係呢集(咁呢集都好聽嘅🤣)

5 /////GOOBOOK - "On earth we're briefly gorgeous" by Ocean Vuong
“You have to find a way, Little Dog,” you said into my hair. “You have to because I don’t have the English to help you. I can’t say nothing to stop them. You find a way. You find a way or you don’t tell me about this ever again, you hear?” You pulled back. “You have to be a real boy and be strong. You have to step up or they’ll keep going. You have a bellyful of English.” You placed your palm on my stomach, almost whispering, “You have to use it, okay?”
上年成功睇咗44/44本書
其中一本最深刻印象嘅係呢本"On Earth we're briefly Gorgeous",推介自吳Margaret。亦拍咗一條Gooboks介紹,當時嘅文字簡介係咁:
「“It seems comically futile to write a letter to a mother who won’t read it, but that was exactly why i was excited about this project, because then the pressure falls on language itself. The English language, is it enough? Is the sentence a formidable architecture to inquire about life and death? I think ultimately it’s a book about language.”
一本關於戰爭所牽引的後續故事、情感連繫與自我身分認同。
一位越南裔美國年輕男孩寫給母親的自白書。」
說到底最動人深刻嘅唔係個大環境context,而係佢對生命嘅觸覺以及用文字去描述及回憶最細微事嘅能力。
仍然大推。
