A very emotional take for Christmas from the brand that popularised the image of Santa, and a couple of very unexpected combinations to start the year inspired. Beyond the monthly highlights, check the special section ‘—About time’ down below.

There were not many random things that caught my attention this month, so I thought ‘why not picking a random topic?’
Time is one of the issues than creatives more often struggle with. I worked hard over the years trying to ‘control’ it —and failed miserably. The jobs keep piling up, the deadlines keep getting shorter and the clock keeps ticking.
I’ve tried virtually every system and app out there over many, many years. The one I swear by now is ‘time-blocking’ for the wealth of insights it gives you regarding how you spend your attention and energy. Best explained in this short clip from The Tim Ferris Show.
There are many interesting calendar apps nowadays that combine events and tasks to help you get started and practice time-blocking. If you want to give it a shot, these are some of the best.
But my app of choice and absolute favourite is Sunsama. It’s flow, integrations and philosophy help me surf the day in peace.
Give any of them a try and I hope that time-blocking could help you feel more focused and calmer in our crazy business.
Also let me know if you like this section too, so I can think of other topics to cover.
