Hey friends,
Welcome aboard to the premiere of my brand new newsletter, 'Sunday Compass'!
You might be wondering what this is all about, right?
To be honest with you, I'm still not 100% sure myself, I just know that I've always had this itch to start projects on my own, it simply excites me. I guess that's why I'm here at my desk, on any given Tuesday at 10:45 PM, after a long workday, writing this newsletter with the hope of launching this first edition next Sunday.
And I've never been tired of these kinds of things, because the excitement that fills me is the fuel I need to dedicate that extra bit of energy that seems to be lacking at the end of the day. I'm sure you understand what I mean…
After much thinking and indecision, I finally chose this format, which I consider to be the most aligned with my style and through which I would feel more comfortable expressing myself.
The idea of this new project, as I was saying, is still not fully defined, in fact, I would love to know what you would like to find here. Go ahead and write to me, I'd love to hear from you!
What I am sure of, though, is that it will be a space where I can comment on the current events and the direction of all those topics that I'm passionate about, both in my professional sector and also in the personal sphere, from a close perspective and by sharing my own experiences, learnings, and victories.
Are you ready to embark on this new adventure with me?
Have a great week!
Fernando
⚓ Maritime term of the week
Compass (could not be other than this)
A compass is a tool used for finding directions. It has a magnetized needle that aligns with the Earth's magnetic field, indicating the direction of magnetic north. By knowing where north is, you can determine the other cardinal directions: south, east, and west. It's like having a natural GPS to help you navigate when you're outdoors.
❤️ Things I liked the most this week
YouTube Video: “The Insane Logistics of Formula 1” - Those who know me, know that I'm passionate about Formula 1 and the world of logistics, and this video combines both. This video explains the complexity of the challenges faced by Formula 1 teams in coordinating the logistics involved in transporting all the necessary equipment throughout the calendar.

App: Notion - I love this app. I heard many content creators talking about how fantastic it is for productivity. For some time, I resisted starting to use it because it seemed too complex and incompatible with my personal management system, until one day I decided to give it a chance. Game changer, I started slowly taking some simple notes and today it is the basis of all the projects I embark on, including, of course, this newsletter. I recommend you give it a try if you haven't already, because you will never go back.
