Trying to do better tracking my work time.

Another Huston movie, this one starring his father and Bogart: The Treasure of the Sierra Madre.

Looking back at the last 3+ years of building and running eBiz Facts: which tasks in that whole process have I enjoyed the most?

I’ve gotten better at saying no over the years.

We fly into Kutaisi at around midnight.

Been on a downswing the last few days, low energy, low motivation.

This kind of weather is fairly unique to Ireland: a light grey almost featureless sky, cold but not freezing, and a persistent drizzle.

Decided to let go, stop stressing myself out trying to get tons of work done before we leave town.

I have a nice addiction now to the step counter on my phone, find myself eager to rack up at least 6000 per day and get it to turn green.

Been meditating more, trying to increase awareness of when I need rest vs when I can keep pushing.

Flying to Ireland day after tomorrow.

I have friends and family who I consider “high energy.”

On days like this, when the Resistance is strong, I try to remind myself that I’ll feel better if I can push through and get the work done.

Taxi apps really are amazing.

My last year of university in Ireland, I barely drank alcohol, passed up many house parties and nights out.

I could hire someone to do this coding work.

A year ago I was coming to the end of my time in Ubud, Bali.

Put a good bit of research into the new idea this week.

Back in the woods, this time with a nice layer of snow.

When I was eleven the teacher asked for a movie everyone had seen.

Each week I write up the newsletter with ten or so items and send it out.

On of th kys on my laptop stoppd working.

Hypothesis: you have to be world class in your niche to earn a living with affiliate marketing.

A glass of hot wine on the hotel terrace this eve, almost ten years since my last drop of alcohol.

Working alone is easy.

Many of us think we can take it easy once we’ve “made it.”

To enjoy and appreciate life, I reckon you have to enjoy and appreciate paradox.

I’m hearing people saying coronavirus is just another flu, that you have more chance of dying in a car crash, etc.

A passing comment that you laugh off can come back to haunt you.

I remember this exact morning twenty years ago.

There’s a guy alone here in the cafe taking up a 4-seater table for the past few hours.

The past two months I’ve been averaging less than 7 hours of sleep.

When we first came to Bali, we were shocked by a lizard the size of my hand crawling the kitchen walls, had to call someone to get him out of there.

Changed my mind.

Hefty bald white dude cuts me off dangerously on the scooter.

What the optimists failed to do was confront the reality of their situation.

Loving the gym these days, go pretty much every morning now.

Another thing you see all the time in Bali are the canang sari.

Marking this day.

Been all around the world, fifty-odd countries, but there’s plenty of Ireland I’ve yet to explore.

Brain can’t stop thinking about business.

Two years deep.

Okay, gotta shake out of this grumpy mood.

When do you lose all sense of time?

Met up with a student of my course today in Chiang Mai.

I love these bike sharing programs they have in many cities nowadays.

History of the workplace.

We met in Colombia, must have been back in 2014.

24 hours on and we’re at the other end of the automobile spectrum, cruising perfectly paved roads from Schiphol airport in a Tesla Model S.

Business obsessed.
