The unexamined life is not worth living, man (a).
These are vague goals, in no particular order, for myself in 2021. I think it would be helpful to break them down into shorter-term and specific goals. That’ll come later. For now…
- Give more time to the people in my life. Keep in touch with friends.
- Learn my working limit (a) and respect it.
- Become more comfortable sitting quietly in a room alone (a).
- Notice the taste of lotus (a); live intentionally.
- Use a newsletter (a), or similar, and writing (a) as thinking tools.
- Document what I do as if I was describing it to a stranger (a).
- Manage my attention (a).
- Write, at least a little bit, about what I read.
- Read more.
- Keep a personal archive (a) of what I’ve read.
- Remember (a) what I’ve learned.
- Continue studying math (a) and, eventually, ML/AI.
- Continue lifting (a) and working out generally.
