I recently came across this company called Artifact Uprising from different bloggers that used them for their photo book services. I signed up for their mailing list because I wanted to try using them the next time I made a photobook. Then, recently, I got one of their promotional emails that really inspired me. There has never been a promotional email that has impressed me as much as this one did with their lovely and timely prose. I thought I'd share what they wrote as it's fitting for those that are into setting resolutions around this time of year. Just their branding is inspirational too - to me, it means you're elevating a piece of meaningful history. Here's their email (with my commentary in parens):
In Reflection...
May quiet contentment find you. In all you have evolved in and in all you cannot change. For we know the gratitude for the past grants us permission to look ahead. (Whoa - quiet contentment, um, yes...and appreciating the past in order to move forward, what a novel idea)
Search for ways that you've grown. Raise a glass to all you've learned - both in challenge and in celebration (what a succinct way to say that you grow from both hardships and fun). All of it purposeful (absolutely!).
In this new chapter - we wish you constant refinement. Let your days teach & transform you. Let them leave you differently than they found you.
And at the close of each day, we wish you a pause (I wish I wrote like this). One that allows you to recognize the greater narrative that ties you in & weaves you back together. (What a nice way to remind us to keep the bigger picture in mind, aka, the world does not revolve around you)
We're grateful for your place in our story this year. Here's to the great that awaits.
Let's resolve to...
Prioritize connection
Seek new perspectives
Remember your why (on how it all began)
Learn something new
Believe in yourself
I'll elaborate on these points more personally in the future, but man, this email got me all inspired to learn how to write better. Sometimes, I wish I majored in English in another life - a life where money is no object and you can pursue what you want regardless of it being "safe" or a "viable career." Darn my asian roots, hehe.
