I’d like to invite you on a thoughtful journey with me.
Time for a reset
After about a year trying out one system I feel like I need a reset. What worked well? for a while I was able to get into a bit of routine What didn’t work so well? not focussed enough to make something grow instead of forcing one way of doing things I am going to give some time to reset.
DAO Pitch
Many ideas are coming together. Writing a pitch so I can share.
How to be smart
What does it mean to be smart? It used to be that if you remembered a lot of things you would be smart. You pass more tests, you go on quiz shows and people will come to you for knowledge. Technology tends to level the playing field. Now that we have the interned in our pockets remembering things is no longer necessary. So what does it mean to be smart?...
Chunking
In cognitive psychology, chunking is a process by which small individual pieces of a set of information are bound together to create a meaningful whole later on in memory.

There are things in life that you don’t notice at the time but after a long time you realize that it is causing pain. Reminded me of the time I started wearing ear plugs at night because I realized I wasn’t getting enough sleep because of how sensitive I was to the sound in the morning....
How to fight entropy
I feel like I am constantly fighting entropy in my life. You need constant energy to fight entropy. System without energy will eventually break down. [[Elon Musk]] once mentioned that he is constantly fighting entropy at his companies. I wonder how he does that?
