A few weeks ago I made a survey asking whether you guys would like an exclusive issue showcasing some awesome Black Friday deals and judging by the survey, approximately 91% of all people who took part said yes.
So with that being said, tomorrow you will get a stand alone issue of a few products that I think you will like for Black Friday.
Full discloser, I am going to get a tiny commission from them, but all of the products that I'm going to showcase are things I have personally bought and tried for myself! I don't really believe in snake oil, so I like to test beforehand so you don't have to ❤
Now for this week's issue. I hope you enjoy✌

How I Spend My Attention."Attention is like energy in that without it no work can be done, and in doing work it is dissipated. We create ourselves by how we invest this energy.
