Hey, I'm Matt...

Hi from Dublin!

I hope this finds you well, a deep **thank you** for all the positive messages I received from last week's mail, I had my highest open rate this year, so maybe some positivity at the start of each week is a good thing. Hit 'reply' if you have something you want to let me know about, I read every email. 

**I have a favour to ask**... Stuff grows by word of mouth only, so if you could forward this to just one smart friend that you think might be interested, that would be amazing. **Sharing is an act of love.** 

**Thank you for being a part of Stuff.* If you received this email from an excellent friend, and would like to subscribe, [please go here](https://mattrutherford.co.uk/newsletter?ref=mattrutherford.co.uk). If you'd like an archive of Stuff from the beginning of 2022 - [it's here](https://www.mattrutherford.co.uk/tag/newsletter/).* 

Onward with the Stuff that MattR's this week...

1. **Monday Motivation:** Let this week be the one where you find 1 or 2 ways to live better. [This list has 100 ways to improve your life](https://stff.me/78livebetter?ref=mattrutherford.co.uk), most are really simple. #6 is excellent advice and #80 was a complete awakening for me.
2. **Your new superpower:** [This simple idea will take 20 minutes](https://stff.me/78gimme20?ref=mattrutherford.co.uk) of your day, and could transform your life.
3. **Essential Reading:** [This incredible site](https://stff.me/78pop?ref=mattrutherford.co.uk) will help you understand where you are in the world. I am the 6,194,179,695th person alive on the planet. This means that I am older than 78% of the world's population and older than 65% of all people in United Kingdom. Keep scrolling for your life expectancy vs the average, this is the definition of privilege. Bonus Stuff: [You are in the green part.](https://stff.me/78greenpart?ref=mattrutherford.co.uk)
4. **Take care:** Is your brain foggy? [Here are five practical ways to clear your mind.](https://stff.me/78foggy?ref=mattrutherford.co.uk)
5. **TWIL:** There is a page (and app) that tracks [how many people are in space right now?](https://stff.me/78whoisinspace?ref=mattrutherford.co.uk) Bonus Stuff: [Cosmonauts throwing shade at Russia?](https://stff.me/78cosmonauts?ref=mattrutherford.co.uk)

My **aural stuff** for you this week is a blast from the past, but recently rereleased on vinyl. Color Him Father by the Winstons, was released in 1969, but still sounds amazing these days - with a couple of tunes that you will 100% recognise, including the **extraordinary** 'Amen Brother' which went on to be [one of the most sampled drum lines in music history.](https://stff.me/78amen?ref=mattrutherford.co.uk)
