I did order a new suitcase and a new phone for myself, though, so clearly I had my priorities straight. This week I\u2019ll try to finish the Christmas shopping and get back to the labels.<\/p>\n<h2>Productivity<\/h2>\n<p>\ud83d\ude0c<\/p>\n<p><strong>I added a feature to my Notion databases to send tasks to my work email.<\/strong> It was a small but important change, motivated by having to reread a bunch of work emails on a regular basis to remember the tasks they called for. Now with the Notion emails I can make those tasks visible and easily open them in Notion to keep working on them. Returning to my productivity system to make this update was a nice break from my regular work, and it was a fun little challenge, since properly formatting a mailto link in a formula was less than straightforward.<\/p>\n<h2>Spirituality<\/h2>\n<p>\ud83e\udd14<\/p>\n<p><strong>My morning devotions are affecting my life.<\/strong> It&#8217;s nothing dramatic, but I definitely feel a slow current. They\u2019re influencing my choice of reading and music, my self-talk, and the overall direction I\u2019m traveling. I still have my old questions and doubts, but they\u2019re much further in the background for now. I\u2019m giving evangelical sentiments more appreciation and benefit of the doubt and inwardly pushing back on them less. I want to see where this current takes me. A lot of the thoughts I&#8217;ve had in the past month or so are captured in my reading for today, Ephesians 4-6, especially the idea that our way of life should be driven by our new identity.<\/p>\n<p><!-- notionvc: 00808842-34bd-4834-a722-e8d9d42f2596 --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Holidays \ud83d\ude10 I got the barest start on my Christmas shopping.
