#55 - My Custom Playlists for Breakthrough Thinking, Doing, and Living

Sharing my top 5 custom playlists that have been a part of my life for years

Late May Edit: as a retrospective, I don’t know if this should’ve been shared here… Kinda want to delete this post, but am going to leave it here for now.

Sometimes, you just need to JAM. You need to pop on your headphones, fire up your computer, and just dive into the ocean of getting sh*t done. Sometimes, you need to meditate in a park, looking at the sun streaking through the trees. Sometimes, you want to feel like a total boss on the plane while you’re cruising over an ocean.

As I’ve progressed through these moments, I’ve listened to my custom playlists. Here are my five most frequently played ones below.

All Spotify links that you can easily subscribe to / save to your libraries. Sorry, Apple Music folks, I’ve been a Spotify guy for well over a decade at this point — not going to change that now. Take my money, Spotify!

1 | Strategy Sessions - A playlist for getting non-menial sh*t done

2 | Strategy Sessions: Flow Edition — GSD but a bit more gentle with groove

3 | Brilliance in Ambience — A playlist for feeling like you’re soaring through a motivating film

4 | 20XX: Club Crushin’ — I love dancing, and there was a time in my life when I clubbed frequently. Not really doing that much anymore, but this playlist makes me feel like I am back raging at 1am (…but now usually played when I’m on the peloton)

5 | 20XX: Travel Life — Usually what I’m listening to when I’m flying around the country/world. It’s upbeat, vibe-ful, and just melancholic enough

Enjoy!
