Productivity Newsletters

Get the weekly email full of actionable ideas and insights you can use at work and home. Brain Food newsletter is an extension of a bigger project called Farnam Street. The main idea behind the company is to help you “master the best of what other people have already figured out.” Every Sunday, the team shares thought-provoking, high-signal content to help you make better decisions, and live a better life. The range of topics is wide, but you can expect material on mental models, decision making, and in general - the art of living. The issue usually starts with excerpts and links to a recent FS blog post or a podcast episode, continues with an Insight and a Tiny Thought packed with multidisciplinary wisdom, and a section to Explore Your Curiosity which hosts curated links with the “best of human thought”.  Subscribe and start feeding your brain.

Get focused. Flow State is a newsletter focused on getting you focused. Each day they sent out an email at 3 am ET so you can start your workday with the essential work music. A brief introduction and background are provided of the artist of the day together with their style of music. The music is vocal-less, and ambient, although a little headbanging can occur when the lo-fi house starts playing. It ranges all the way from jazzy beats and groovy funk to mild instrumentals with a touch of synth. You can even find Estonian classical artists from the 90s. If the music of the day doesn’t work for you, there is a very long library of flowy music to choose from to enhance your workday. Subscribe for the best picks to get you focused and discover new music!
