I tend to like songs with not-so-motivational messages 😄 but I do have one from 2021, that can be counted as quite inspirational. It's this Mountain by Faouzia: spotify:track:0NYJUJaDCvrkMQQt4WSrVU

And for a playlist I'd say the one I listen to when running does help with the motivation when my lungs are giving out. It's a Spotify created one:

Great topic @BellaK_396!

Similar to @Elena, I'm sticking to music and podcasts which give me permission to languish and hibernate in these winter months. For that reason I really loved this episode of On Being on the practice of Wintering:

I have a huge realization that my productivity is based on how much sleep I get in a day so to increase productivity and have good health which will basically help me be motivated literally is to get enough sleep. 

I listen to this relaxing podcast from our very own Inka to help me get to sleep and honestly, it works!

This song is very meaningful to me.

Every single word means a lot.

Day after day after day, you have been faithful to me.
Day after day after day I'm on your ways.
Day after day, week after week, year after year,
I will declare your glory!
I will declare your greatness,
I will praise Your name.

Day after day after day, you are my Savior my friend.
Day after day after day, I'm not alone.
Day after day, week after week, year after year,
You will be right beside me.
You'll be here to guide me.
I will praise Your name.

Great question, @Bella_K!

I haven’t thought of any specific New Years Resolutions for this year; however, I always enjoy discovering new music and think it’s something that will help me through 2022.

Last year, one podcast that introduced me to some music that I really enjoy (mostly stoner rock) is The Doomed and Stoned Show; and I’m fairly certain that this podcast will lead me to more music discoveries throughout 2022 as I continue to listen to new episodes:
