Matt’s Favorites
This is a collection of my favorite things to use that make my life a little simpler. Simplifying my life allows me to put more energy towards decisions that matter rather than being weighed down by impertinent and inconsequential thought processes.

Muji Gel Ink Ball Point Pen, Black, 0.5mm
I can be a bit of a pen-snob. If I let you borrow a pen, it is a big deal. Believe me, these are top tier pens.
I am a fan of no-bleed gel ink, and these hit the mark.
They are lightweight but durable.
Traditionally, I like the click-pens, but the down side is the bleeding in your pocket. These have a reliable top that does not warp or break.
I have been using these pens consistently for almost 2 years, and they are currently my personal favorite pen to use.
SHARP Twin Bell Alarm Clock
This is the one simple tool that I used to overcome sleeping in.
I was the guy the snoozed my alarm 6 times before getting up.
Simplifying my alarm clock served to turn my mornings from a masterful display of procrastination into a decision: arise or stay in bed.
You will not sleep through this alarm, and there is no snooze on it.
It looks stylish and comes in a few different colors.
Simplify your mornings. Get your phone away from your bed, and get up. This is the one tool you need to help you make this happen.
Next Level 6410 Men’s Premium Crew Tee
I tell my wife often: if I could buy a black t-shirt and jeans every day of my life, I would.
If I could buy one type of t-shirt, this is it. The sleeves aren’t too short like many t-shirts you find. The material is fitted and soft, but holds up.
I put my t-shirts through the works and these have held up for 3 years. While black is my go-to, I also have red and gray. None of them have let me down (I did get a stain on the gray, which is why I prefer black).
You can never go wrong with a nice, durable, fitted black tee.
