When I think about my last 7 days posts, they were pretty shit. Mostly because I didn’t put a lot of thought into and just did it so that I could form a habit. Starting this week, I’ll try to incorporate more elements every week so that my reflections are better.

• Only did 25 push ups and sit ups – was lazy during the night. I think I’ll try to add my push ups at the end of my morning routine before I see sunlight. I think habit stacking will be a pretty effective strategy
• I feel like I spend a lot of time just sitting there and reading lecture notes passively. This is probably inefficient so I’ll try to do some strategies to try and be more efficient.
  • Ideas:
    • Start a timer
    • Try to write a summary of each section/page/whatever
    • Try to explain it to myself (feynman technique)
    • If i don’t understand something that’s fine – as long as I know which areas specifically I don’t understand i think its ok cuz at least I can find ways to improve it instead of just drowning myself in general confusion
• I’ll add a section called random thoughts where I put random thoughts I find interesting. Maybe I’ll write a full post about them later
• There’s some internship applications that I should fill in.
• I actually need to meditate tommorow cuz I am actually lazy – will definitely do it tommorow
• Try to set a timer for when I have to lock in and not scroll my phone. Now that I am thinking about it because I am reading notes passively I am probably not really concentrating and why i get so many random thoughts

Random thoughts

• Jesse Itzler managed to close deals because he was with David Goggins. You can achieve a lot in life by just being really interesting.
• Watch some VC podcasts on apple podcasts
• maybe stay in cambridge during the summer – can ask researchers in cambridge about latest tech and get to know more uk entrepreneurship ecosystem
• Read about Joe Girard a successful car salesman
• watch some YC pitch videos
