Insightful Tweetstorms â
For those who donât know, a âtweetstormâ is a chain of tweets linked together to express an idea succinctly. I love that format because itâs not constrained to 140 characters, but at the same time is usually shorter than a blogpost. Here are some of my favorites of this week:
Tiago Forte on Twitter: "1/ I'm increasingly convinced that THE most important thing in productivity is to end every cycle with a clear milestone or deliverable"

James Clear on Twitter: "1/ Physical environment is one of the most overlooked drivers of habits and behavior change. It has a profound impact on our daily actions."
Struggling with habits? Make it a priority to read this. https://t.co/PECS1R7ZI2
Taylor Pearson on Twitter: "1/ I love Derek Siverâs question: âWhat are you optimizing your life for?â"
When you tweet with a location, Twitter stores that location.
You can switch location on/off before each Tweet and always have the option to delete your location history.
