Hi friends,

This is Kei and Kazuki from Glasp πŸ‘‹

We are excited to start Day 3 of the 5 Day Reading Challenge πŸ“šβœ¨ Here are three good articles we choose, so when you finish reading any of them or any article you want, share it on Twitter with the hashtag, "#read5for5"! Let's read good articles together and connect with like-minded people🀝

Today's Reading List πŸ“š

(1) Stop thinking about productivity, and start thinking about focus by Finn (9 mins)

  • The author challenges the conventional focus on productivity, suggesting instead that the key to effective work lies in maintaining focus.

  • A multitude of productivity tips often found in articles, such as maintaining a schedule and a proper work environment, are seen as less crucial than the ability to focus.

  • The concept of "focus" is presented as the "new productivity," implying a shift in mindset about what truly drives effective work and accomplishment.

(2) Learning Without Schools: Four Points To Free Yourself From The Educational Get-Certified Mantra by Robin Good (6 mins)

  • The author critiques the traditional school system, arguing it's outdated and ill-prepares students for today's fast-paced world.

  • They propose a new educational approach emphasizing real-world learning, critical thinking, hands-on experiences, and valuing mistakes over formal qualifications.

  • The author calls for a shift in education, prioritizing practical skills and experiences over rote learning and certification.

(3) How Do You Live in the Present? by Arlin Cuncic (8 mins)

  • The article emphasizes the significance of living in the present and offers strategies such as mindfulness, focusing on one task at a time, and expressing gratitude.

  • It suggests implementing practices like acceptance, mindfulness meditation, seeking positive social support, limiting technology use, and incorporating exercise or yoga.

  • Failing to live in the present is often due to distractions and anxiety; to improve, focus on active listening and giving full attention to others.
