3 Things I Learned Last Week #33 – Wake Up Like Grandma, Quest for Your ‘Why’, and Be Your Inner Detective

Welcome to the 33rd episode of ‘Nathan’s Weekly Nerdiness’! (Yep, it’s just like that TV show you’re binge-watching, but with fewer dragons and more knowledge bombs.) 🤓

Every week, in between my attempts to invent a calorie-free chocolate bar and my dreams of getting accepted to Hogwarts, I also manage to find some pretty enlightening stuff. So, settle in, grab that cuppa joe or green tea (or blue tea if that’s a thing now), and let’s get nerdy!

Our top 3 jaw-dropping finds this week:

  1. 🕰️ “Why is Grandma an Early Bird and I’m a Night Owl?” Understanding Your Chrono-What-Now?
  2. 🌟 “Mission: Find Your ‘Why'”. No, it’s not another Mission Impossible movie.
  3. 🧠 The Inner Sherlock: Unmasking the Stranger Inside Us

Shall we?

🕰️ “Why is Grandma an Early Bird and I’m a Night Owl?” Understanding Your Chrono-What-Now?

Ever wondered why Grandma’s already had breakfast, read the paper, and pruned her roses by the time you’ve hit the snooze button for the 8th time? Enter the world of Chronotypes. Our buddy, Ran Darwish, spills the beans on this!

🔑 Sneak Peeks:

  • We’re not just lazy! Our wakey-wakey and sleepy-sleepy moments are thanks to these cool things called Chronotypes.
  • Want to unlock superhero productivity? Sync up with your body’s natural rhythm. Yes, it’s like dancing, but with tasks.
  • Tired? Instead of that 5th coffee, try breaks during energy lulls.

🎥 Unravel your inner time-teller right here.

🌟 “Mission: Find Your ‘Why'”. No, it’s not another Mission Impossible movie.

Ever felt like your life’s purpose is the WiFi password that you just can’t seem to remember? Dive into this content to join the league of extraordinary purpose-finders!

🔑 Sneak Peeks:

  • Shared experiences: Not just for cute Instagram posts. They’re core memory-makers and purpose-shapers.
  • Adding personal stories to our journey makes our work relatable. Kinda like adding cheese on… well, everything!
  • Detect patterns like Sherlock. Sometimes, a fresh pair of eyes can help you find your true north.

🎥 Your mission, if you choose to accept it.

🧠 The Inner Sherlock: Unmasking the Stranger Inside Us

In an age of impulse tweeting and ‘Oops, did I just post that?’, taking a breath to chat with our inner selves is a game-changer.

🔑 Sneak Peeks:

  • Why did I say that? Oh right, my past is pulling the strings sometimes. Realizing this is life-changing.
  • Think before you tweet. Or text. Or… you get it.
  • Tough times call for some inner Sherlock-ing. Understand your Watson (emotions) to avoid Moriarty-level drama.

🎥 Meet your inner roommate. It’s less creepy than it sounds.


And snap! That’s a wrap for this week’s episode of ‘Nathan’s Weekly Nerdiness’. Fingers crossed these insights lead you to rule the trivia night or, at the very least, give you some cool dinner party chatter!
