Optimal Living Daily

---

I read you the best content on personal development, minimalism, productivity, and more, with author permission. Think of Optimal Living Daily as an audioblog or blogcast where the best blogs are narrated for you for free.

Here are a few quick tips when navigating our skill. First thing to note, when opening the skill you’ll be offered the latest episode, but if that’s not what you’re looking for, you can always find something more specific. This skill allows you to skip forward and backward by entire episodes, and you can also fast forward and rewind within episodes themselves. In addition, you can ask the skill to play the newest or oldest episodes released; or if you want to get specific, play a specific episode by saying the episode number. Try some of these commands:

**Skip Entire Episodes**
— [While Episode Is Playing] = “Alexa skip” or “Alexa tell Optimal Living Daily to skip ahead 5 episodes”

**Fast Forward/Back Within Episode**
— [While Episode Is Playing] = “Alexa, tell Optimal Living Daily to fast forward 2 minutes”
— [While Episode Is Playing] = “Alexa, tell Optimal Living Daily to rewind 45 seconds”

**Select Newest Episode**
— “Alexa, tell Optimal Living Daily to play the newest episode”
