"Most people have no idea how beautiful the world is and how much magnificence is revealed in the tiniest things, in some flower, in a stone, in tree bark, or in a birch leaf." — Rainer Maria Rilke via the 5-Bullet Friday newsletter tim.blog/fbf from @tferriss

For 500 days I've written 500 words of Morning Pages. While they're usually just brain dumps, I'll sometimes reflect on specific questions. As @tferriss says, if you want better answers, ask better questions. -My Top 10 Reflection Questions (and where I got them)- [THREAD]
