mental big rocks

I’ll have to consider some other areas where I’m putting too many rocks in. Not just eliminating rocks, but eliminating areas if possible. It's interesting, at work for example, how much time some co-workers spend on email. I don't ignore email, but my time spent there is minimal - that can burn yo...

mental big rocks

Ian King had the big rocks metaphor. Put the big rocks in the jar. Most of us here have read a lot of meditation/mindfulness/blahblah but what are the big rocks? Rocks have different meaning. Covey referred to them as the big things that you tend to first. Others who wrote about Lean Manufacture ta...

Side gigs

I can make decent money coaching and doing private lessons, but i don't know if I'd be able to sustain that right now if I decided to make them a side gig. If a book store was hiring, I'd jump at that but being surrounded by books, I'd probably spend every $ I earned...

Netflix series - Sanctuary

"Sanctuary" - Japanese Netflix series is pretty good. If you have any interest in sumo and/or Japanese culture, you'll like it. Only one season (9 episodes I think) so far, but they're working on the second apparently. Some of the storylines and characters are very very very loosely based ...

Umm, no. It was dead long before that. The couch thread is probably a decent gauge of engagement - the last months and weeks there were regular posts would indicate when IGX was still struggling for life.

Japan had a Sportsman No. 1 contest for many years (probably still does) starting in the 90s. They'd have athletes of all kinds compete in a myriad of events (strength, power, endurance, mental, etc) for placings/points to determine an overall champion. Pretty entertaining - Koji Murofushi (Olympic ...

Here's the thing. He's probably being this way partly because he reads you as someone who defers to authority, which emboldens him. You have to be prepared for things like this.
