Goals

Doing tons of updates on KK.

Doing a Dexascan body scan to check how much fat% I am. My estimate is 25% or 26% after the holidays!

Going to see if can get this slightly under under 20%.

Here’s the goals for November 2018:

Goal: LASIK Enhancement
About a year ago I got LASIK eye surgery. Most of my adult life I’ve had a -6.75 power in each eye. This means without contacts or glasses I couldn’t even see the big “E” on the eye chart.

For this reason I used to wear my contacts to sleep every night. Every single doctor has told me that is a bad and dangerous practice, but a combination of laziness and scariness (imagine you wake up at night with such bad vision you can’t see a damn thing) kept me doing it for years.

So I finally got LASIK and now have 20/20 vision.

Within a year of your LASIK you can get an “enhancement” which is pretty common for someone with a -6.75 power. We did some “contact tests” where I wore different power contacts for a few days at a time, and the optimal eagle-eye vision is if I get a 0.25 power increase.

So this month that LASIK Enhancement is scheduled, and it theoretically should be a pretty quick ordeal (they don’t make a cut in the eye for this upgrade, just a slight contouring of the eyes).

 

Goal: CFB
Trying to get it done by October.

 

Goal: Books to read:
The amount of full books I’ve read lately is crazy low…..but it’s because nowadays I think there’s so many awesome-er mediums for knowledge.

I can listen to a machine learning podcast and take notes.
I can watch a YouTube interview about building companies and take notes.
I can learn about economics from listening to a podcast in the shower:

There’s just other ways of consuming information that’ve become extremely easy (and have tons of high quality content) that’ve popped up within the last few years, that reading books sometimes seems like a slower medium of knowledge absorption.

Also……most books are way longer than they need to be so publishers can charge more money for them. It’s easier to charge $25 for a 340 page book rather than a 60 page book.

Anywho, I’ll be finishing 2 books this month.

 

Back to ATX soon:
I’ve successfully skipped most of the hot Austin summer in San Francisco, and now it’s back to ATX soon!

Some observations about going back-n-forth to two places:

⇒ You appreciate aspects of both places much more.

For example: If you live in SF people in SF complain it’s “too cold” during the summer….as someone who’s trying to escape heat, the cold is welcome! But if you stay too long then you also get annoyed.

⇒ You tend to make the most of your time in a city because it seems finite.

Since there’s an end date to which you leave, you make the most of your time vs a permanent stay which seems like there’s no end date.

 

Still in SF for the summer.

Corporate rental’ing out of SF for the next few mo’s in order to skip Austin heat 😳

Here are the goals for June 2018:

This month I’ll also be going to HustleCon in SF, and staying in SF for all of July and August (Austin is way too hot right now)!

Here are the goals for March 2018:

Consults Auto System: Already mostly implemented, but whole flow is automated, taking me out of the scheduling process and making it far easier to fit times in.

FB 1,000 Auto: FB stuff.

SwipeFile.io 50 Each: Adding 50 examples minimum to every swipe file section.
