Let's think about thinking.

Here are 3 topics that can shake you out of your everyday perspective and live more intentionally (you're steering the ship now).

Topic #1: Philosophy

I am who I think I am? Hard to tell some days!

Philosophy isn't just for those sitting in comfortable armchairs. The tools it offers (like perspective) can be used in any moment, anywhere, and by anyone. A personal favorite, Will this matter in five years? If not, don't let it matter for more than five minutes.

Topic #2: Creativity

You can create who you are every day.

What has drawn me to creativity ever since I could pick up a pencil (er, Crayola crayon) is possibility. You can draw into your life (sometimes literally) what brings you joy.

A practice I've found impactful is doing one thing a day just for the fun of it (no metrics, no management).

Connect to yourself in these quiet moments, and you'll start to see how new connections, ideas, and insights start to pop up around you.

Topic #3: Tech

There is a special place in my heart for tech.

Partly because some of my earliest memories are of my dad teaching me how to use a computer when I came home from preschool (Mom's still not thrilled about that if you're reading this!), but because I saw a glimmer of magic in the machine.

While there are clear and apparent issues in this world, I'd like to focus on the element of accessibility and connection (leading into creation). We have these magic devices in our pockets now that hold the world's knowledge at our fingertips.

And guess what? We can use that to form meaningful connections, make the world more accessible for everyone and work on problems that seemed impossible generations ago. How magical is that?
