j.d.i (-borderline rant)

Almost timely, but last weeks issue was really spot on this week - picking up the theme from the other day;

Moving. On wards. Learning. Doing.


You never know when the magic strikes. So don't just wait around for another chance. 


Flinch


Carpe Diem


There are so many ways to say it, but only one way to do it - JUST DO IT. 


Work out
Read

How should you work out? Try one thing, then move on. The evaluate, or move on. Keep at it until it now longer gives the boost, the kick, the energy above and beyond what you put into it. 


How often? Often enough. Be consistent, but don't over do it. LIfe is a marathon if done right, so keep at it, take a break and get back on the horse. And then use the energy for moving on down the list.


What should you read? A little bit of everything. Read for fun.But also for learning. Read to expand your horizon, and to challenge yourself. Read as a reward, and as relaxation.


Learning? A little something new every week or month. Dive into Codecademy or pick a course at Khan. Watch a TED talk and then pick up some background insights. 


And then transform the learning into insights - by reformulating the points, by discussing at home, work or online. 


FInally, take what you got out of the discussion, and share it - blogg it, put it on Quara or write a book. Giving back, and sharing forward. Keep the loop flowing.
