About this daily feature

Each edition has room for an original artwork inspired by an artist I like and the things on my mind. This first piece was made for 6 September 2026. New artworks are added by the editor; automatic daily generation is not connected. Until a new piece is ready, the latest one stays here with its original date.

HAPPY 5 TODAY

Five small ways to make today better.

A little movement. A little generosity. A little more human.

MOVE

A gentle stretch. A little fresh air. Start where you are.

GIVE

Pass on a book, a useful link or a little encouragement.

CONNECT

Message the person you keep meaning to message. Not just a like.

CALM

Look out of a window for a minute. Let your mind be untidy.

GROW

Try a tiny version of an idea you have been sitting on.

Try any of these. Visitor ticks last for this visit only.

A THOUGHT BEFORE YOU GET ON WITH IT

THE NOBLEST ART

The noblest art is that of making others happy.

P. T. Barnum
Quotation sourceBarnum’s signed manuscript · 19 July 1889

Whose day could you improve?

A proper thank you. A laugh. An introduction that opens a door. Happiness can be something we give each other.

DO YOU BUY THAT?

A daily rotation. Some ideas are worth coming back to.

UGANDA WATCH

A WINDOW INTO KAMPALA

Practical skills. Real jobs. A new route for Uganda’s young people.

Uganda is developing practical training in farm machinery, irrigation and soil testing. The interesting question: can a skills programme become a genuine route into work?

THE THREAD THROUGH IT ALL

Someone gave you a chance.
Pass one on.

Talent is everywhere. A first opportunity isn’t. An introduction, a first customer, a proper job: small doors can open a life.

05 /OVER THE FENCE

OVER
THE FENCE.

Things Marcus didn’t ask for.

A USEFUL CHANGE OF SCALE

Your inbox is quite small from here.

Take a look at today’s astronomy picture. Spend thirty seconds being interested in something spectacularly far away.

What feels less urgent now?

A daily rotation of editorial discoveries. Not an algorithm learning your preferences.

THE GENERAL IDEA

WHAT
I RECKON.

Subject to a better argument.

Ask better questions.

Try the thing.

Read people you disagree with.

If you’ve had opportunities, create some for somebody else.

Creativity is not a luxury.

Being different can be useful.

Make money. Make things better.

Change your mind occasionally.

Go somewhere you haven’t been.

Don’t become unbearably serious.
