4for FRIDAY with Chuck Allen

April 1, 2022 by AChuckAllen

4forFRIDAY April 1, 2022

A FUN AND EXCEPTIONAL RESTAURANT

Del Bar Restaurant in Inman Park was simply amazing. Middle Eastern food prepared so delictably that we cannot wait to return. Lamb, sea bass, beeks and chicken kabobs and all the “fixings” were so good.

–Chuck

AN ENTERTAINING SHOW FROM CBS (go figure)

The nine celebrities set up a shelter in the Panama jungle, only to have host Mauro Ranallo divide them into two teams to embark on their first intense, muddy adventure challenge. When one celebrity finds herself in danger as she continues to sink into the mud bog, she must put her faith in a teammate to reach safety.

-CBS

A DAILY NEWS SOURCE I’M ENJOYING

Morning Brew is a short and solid source for a morning news brief. You can customize your preferences regarding news, finance, marketing, politics, etc. Good stuff!

– Chuck

A FABULOUS INTERVIEW WITH BRENÉ BROWN

I am an unashamed fan of Brené Brown’s research and Oprah’s interview style. This conversation about human emotions is fscinating. I recommended “Atlas of the Heart” in the 4forFRIDAY and cannot encourage you enough to read or listen to this book!

– Chuck

Go in Peace, Chuck

A POWERFUL QUOTE – REMEMBER THIS ONE!

Criticizing is easy and fast. Creating is difficult and slow. The two hours you spent on a book or movie usually took two years to produce. Anyone can tear down someone else’s work. The true test of insight is whether you can help them improve it or build something of your own.”

– Adam Grant

A GREAT ARTICLE: IF IT FEELS LIKE THE WALLS ARE CLOSING IN By Emily P. Freeman

“What if your self is a train wreck? What do you do then? The more obsessed we are with our selves, the more we neglect our souls.”

-Emily P. Freeman

A GREAT BOOK: RUN ROSE RUN By James Patterson and Dolly Parton

“This is a fast-paced, fun read. I enjoyed Patterson and Bill Clinton’s collaberation, so I tried this one, and it didn’t disappoint.”

– Chuck

ANOTHER GREAT ARTICLE: Couples Who Last A Lifetime Do These 10 Things By James Michael Sama
