From Sinatra it's either The Lady Is A Tramp or Don't Be That Way. But there's a ton of other good stuff like that from the 60s, like Bing Crosby, Brenda Lee, Etta James, etc. Check out Lenny Williams too! He's more popular in the 70s but I think he's little closer to the style of the 60s- just different enough to be something fresh for your ears and similar enough to pique your interest :)

Earlier jazz may fit this bill well. Check out the New Orleans Rhythm Kings. I‘m actually listing to some of their work right now, and I can envision it fitting this vibe. You may also like the work of Ruth Ettings for early vocal work. In terms of later work, you may find Ella Fitzgerald’s work with Joe Pass good for this. Scott LaFaro’s and Fats Navarro’s work too. For perhaps deeper cuts: Richard “Groove” Holmes’ album “Living Soul,” as well as the work of Don Byas.

Cleaning fucking sucks but the feeling after is so good. Waking up and everything's clean and cozy and smells good is so awesome

Sounds like an ad lol but I'm serious. It's like food for ur brain. We have an infinite capacity to learn so try to do something new once in a while. It feels good to spend time on something nourishing rather than wasting time scrolling or working
I've been sorta trudging through life lately, picked my guitar up and learned a new song from one of my favorite musicians. It was hard and frustrating at times but in the end I went to bed smiling.
