Day 20: My 3 Favourite Online Newsletters for Personal Development

I love reading newsletters. They are often a goldmine for bite sized and digestible articles and wisdoms personally curated by a passionate online expert, creator or organisation. The amount of value I've gained and time I've saved scrolling the net, by reading a newsletter is priceless.

If you are at all interested in having a curated list of self development resources sent to your inbox, here are the 3 most worth your time:

1. 5-Bullet Friday by Tim Ferriss

The variety of resources and links in Tim Ferriss's weekly newsletter is eye opening and will keep you engaged. I first found out about the newsletter through his podcast, The Tim Ferriss Show where he talks to movers and shakers across many disciplines to (as he puts it) "deconstruct world class performers of all different types from different field to tease out the habits, routines, etcetera, that you can apply in your own life".

2. Brain Food by Farnam Street

Brain food brings to light thoughts to ponder, great articles to challenge our thoughts and aims to improve our work and life. They share mental models, useful tips and quotes to inspire. The newsletters are short, and if you have time to go to their website and read their latest articles, you'll come out learning something new.

3. Hidden Brain Community

This is an email spin off of one of my favourite podcasts (Hidden Brain by NPR) that explore the human condition, psychology and paradigm shifting ideas through human stories. The Newsletter will dive into resources related to the latest podcast or highlight an idea that may be of interest, like "are younger siblings more rebellious?" or "Using discomfort to your advantage".
