Your Travel Bucket List

Hello again!

I hope you’re having a great week so far!

This is the travel issue of Positive Vibes—just in time for upcoming summer vacations. :)

Do you have a trip planned this summer, or later this year? I’d love to hear about it! I enjoy learning about all the different places people visit throughout the world!

I’d also love to know about any places that may be on your travel bucket list.

Finally, I could use your feedback and advice on this question with which I’ve been wrestling: how do you think I can best reach more readers and subscribers like you? I’d like to reach as many people as possible with Positive Vibes, but seem to be stuck on how to get the word out. Do you have any ideas? Please write to me if you do.

If it’s easier for you to take this poll, please do that too (responses remain anonymous) :

Thank you in advance for your feedback and help with this! This newsletter wouldn’t even exist without you! :)

Warm regards and happy travels,

Yasmine

What I’m Feeling Good About

I’m currently reading a very thought-provoking book, Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals, by Oliver Burkeman. It was released in 2021, so you may have read it or heard of it, but I just learned of it last week, and knew that I had to read it!

Now, you may be thinking that another book on time management is the last thing you need, and you would be right—which is exactly the point of this book. Think of it as the “anti-time management” book, because, as the book’s back cover points out:

“We’re deluged with advice on becoming more productive and efficient, and life hacks to optimize our days. But such techniques often end up making things worse. The sense of anxious hurry grows more intense, and yet the most meaningful parts of life seem to lie just beyond the horizon.”

This book is guaranteed to make you stop and think about what is actually most important to you, and to reflect on your relationship with time and how you’re spending your days and your life. It’s one of those that I’ll be giving as a birthday and Christmas gift to many of my friends and family this year!
