Ooops! These got posted early. I’ll just go with it up and update them a bit more.

Rhythm of Week Notes #

I’m really enjoying the rhythm of writing week notes. It is nice to have a spot to dump any little ideas that come up through out the week. I think that it is reducing the friction associated with posting stuff here as I already have a designated place to put stuff. I implemented a bash alias hugo-week-notes that pulls up the current week notes in vim so opening up and editing the notes is quick.

Doing Things Often #

A colleague told me that he was headed to a celebration of people who go to the gym a lot. He is consistently in the +300 days per year group. (One cannot log multiple visits per day.) Anyway, he pointed out that if you do something eight times a week, then you’ll do it over four hundred times a year. These kinds of calculations fascinate me. I had previously liked a more temporal riff on this theme: if you do something twenty minutes a day for a year, then you’ll do it over a hundred hours.

Moving #

Exercise is available to nearly all humans — just looks different for some than others. Keys to remember that our bodies deserve movement, and part of the thrill of existence is to feel our bodies moving through time and space and to remember that life in this body is finite, so enjoy it. — Rich Furman
