#1 Hello World!

One with the most stereotypical title.

Reading & reflecting on my notes have been a great source of comfort in the last few months. It's helped me energize every day to face the challenges & take up more with a positive attitude. 

Below, I've curated some articles & sources from the learning I captured last week. Hoping you will find them useful. 

1.

2. 

Psychology plays a very strong role in all the choices we make. This article captures some important lessons on how  Peloton has used it to design their product experience and create stickiness that's unparalleled. 

The trigger-routine-reward cycle described in the habit loop framework is being considered for the coach approach. Will be very interesting to see it in work & help improve stickiness in our products & services.
