Our Spring Adventure Is Here 🌸

Dear Co-x3 Community,
This week, our spring adventure has arrived - how can we level up to the next stage of our lives, together?
This week has been action-packed and there's so much to share, so how about we dive right in! I'm so sorry about the delayed newsletter and video drop this week - I've spent over 40 hours editing and producing content over the weekend amidst hardware troubles, and I'm just so excited to share what Co-x3 has in store for you.
Our Wins 🚀
It's been a fantastic week for our community - here are some highlights:
•
Our release notes this week has been extensive, and for good reason! In a nutshell:
•
Integrated world events, heroes to join your journey to help you get through the week, theme library, party database, success plan improvements, power-user features made easy, progress bar upgrades, a new template for fear setting (inspired by Tim Ferris), and so, so much more.
For the first time, we have included GIF tutorials to showcase novel features that take advantage of Notion's latest update that launched just this Wednesday!  Browse through the full release notes →
•
In our weekly catchup session (now lovingly dubbed 'Council Meeting'), we had a great conversations about the May campaign we will embark on together to drastically improve ourselves, and make the community a better space for each and every one of us. Watch the session here if you missed it! →
•
We hosted an impromptu 'build with me' livestream on Saturday, 1pm SGT where I taught community members how to theme their setup - we had a ton of fun, and it was a very relaxing way to spend the afternoon. Parts of the session made it into our HUGE youtube share this week! Let me know if you enjoy this kind of content, and I can schedule more in the future.
•
The kind and amazing Veronika has shared a comprehensive collection of resources that helped her master Japanese only for the community, give her some ♥ by checking it out here!

Spring is here for Co-x3! If you haven't graced it with your presence yet, our resident artist Vivian has created a beautiful spring theme for Co-x3! If you're interested in getting a wallpaper pack, do let us know.

If you've been to our toolbox or our brand new adventure pages recently, you'll notice that I've been able to integrate custom fonts, and even a chatbot into a notion page. You can learn how I've been able to do that here.

This week's honest sharing 💭
Every week, I am deeply honest about important topics.
Wow, just wow. This has been a beast of a video to make, and huge thanks to all the community members that helped me make it happen (your credits are in the description). I'm not going to spoil it for you, but know this going in - you've never seen a setup like this before.
As our valued community members, you get a 1 hour exclusive head start on the video before it goes public! Like and comment if you want to see more! 💕
What I've been resonating with 📚
Constant learning is an important part of your growth journey, and I try to read as much as I can to learn as fast as I can. Every week, I'll share key insights from the best pieces of content I digest.

•
Our personal narratives holds a strong influence over how we behave.
•
Ultimately, we only take the opportunities that we think we deserve and are capable of taking.
•
We all have the capacity for amazing feats - it's a combination of faith (in yourself) + tangible steps towards action (from a supportive network) that we can realize our full potential.
I'm going to do something a little different for this resonance piece, I saw his wonderful concept as highly applicable to life in action, so I have a bit more to share here than usual!
•
In his ted talk, he was concentrating on the fears holding him back on big decisions in his life, and how he worked through the process of turning inaction into action.
•
Quite often, our why (to do things) ends at the goal (eg. I want to get further in my career) or the area of competence in our life (eg. improving finances). However, for many, that might not be enough motivation to drastically change our psyche to sprint towards achieving success in that area in our lives.
•
So for those moments in my life, I utilize fear setting to push for an additional boost of incentive to fulfill my success plan - by defining the fears (worst-case scenarios) of never achieving that goal. Learn more about fear setting here →
