A magical writing tool, my fave meeting agenda template, some beautiful web design layout ideas, and much more

‍​3 useful tools

1) Landingpage.fyi

Are you creating a landing page from scratch? The steps, tools, and resources you need (in order) are on landingpage.fyi. You can finally rest assured that everything on your landing page is in place.

2) Wordtune

​Wordtune is my favourite writing tool of all time. I recommend it any chance I get.

Check this out: It'll rewrite, shorten, expand, formalize or casualize your sentences. It's frighteningly good. Have fun.​

3) Cleanup-pictures

Easily and quickly remove objects, people, text or defects from images for free. That's cleanup.pictures for you. No need to fire up Photoshop anymore.

3 ideas to think about

1) Every new idea is just a mashup or a remix of one or more previous ideas. —Austin Kleon

2) Whenever you have a problem or fear, ask yourself: “What would I do or say if I wasn’t scared?”. Then, do that thing. —Yours truly

3) Reminder that a big problem is just a bunch of small problems combined. Learn to separate them out.

Shower thoughts

1) We've reached an oddly secure place as a species when we're rooting for the number of tigers and lions in nature to increase

2) Cooking products are sold by saying they can help you cook "restaurant quality" meals, but restaurants get you to come in by saying they have "Homestyle" cooking

3) If a dog could use a computer, he'd likely have his owner as his desktop background
