Hi,

This edition is 286 words and takes 2 minutes to read.

I hope you’ve enjoyed 7PS as much as I enjoy writing them. To me, there is nothing better than trying to write with the purpose of (hopefully) providing you value. This is the 29th edition, and I plan on keeping this going into 2022. 

Thanks for your ideas, feedback, and encouragement. Please keep sending me ideas here. 

Wishing you a wonderful season – with mirth and maybe a little mischief. 😉

Warmly,

-Kabir
