Dear @Dayleeo // 9th September 2k18 // kinda went in on modding as soon as I woke, but i'm ready for today.

Good morning, it’s now 10am and I’m like how? I’ve been up since about 8:30am and I had every best intention of having weetabix and a coffee and going to do my pots, that completely failed. I just got into modding instead and thought I’d do some online tasks before I got into the day so here I am! :) — now reading your post and catching up.

Not sure what time it was that I actually fell asleep last night but I feel pretty rested it has to be said, glad we got a bit of downtime in last night all the same, certainly helps to break up the day. I’d be quite happy going into the mines each day to do some manual labour, I’ve done that before textiles and I felt physically on top form even if it was killing my creative soul :)

I’m certainly gonna take a walk today because I wanna get that back into my day to day and I really really fancy a bunch of salads and greens and stuff today — I wanna eat something hearty at least that’s for sure, gotta crush the hours this week and maybe I’ll go in earlier on friday and do a proper shop, I’ve had that larder idea floating around in my mind for the last week, gotta manifest it.

just reading your blog post I think we spend too much time on the fine grain stuff, then we have this urge to like try and make people see ‘our way’ of things, I’ve been really working on just doing the things that I enjoy and love to do, regardless of what stage I’m considered to be at, that’s the wonderful thing about learning and adapting to change around you, you really start to see where your strengths and weaknesses are — you can either choose to improve them or accept defeat, personally I alway tweak the things that give me enjoyment and fun over being right and fixed/rigid in thinking.

Yeah kinda weird but I was thinking about that at the bus stop the other day, it would be a great little application and I’ve got a few ideas about how the algorithm would work for that, it ties in incredible well to overall thinking of my original app idea but now it has ‘styles’ and ‘events’ bolted into it, I think within 3 clicks, decisions you could be straight at it and have some great AI fed into it using location.

Yeah the residuals are your key to doing the very thing that holds you back, if you think your not good enough, learn, if you think you’ve not done enough, make — what residuals afford you is time and once you get that supposedly feeling free time back you want to build more of it into the schedule, imagine one day a month you get a virtual cheque as a reminder of the effort you make way back when and it was discovered and consumed and the algorithm rewarded the viewing minutes, it’s a pretty sweet validation feeling.

Makes you feel not so, virtual, knowing that out there ‘something’ decided to rack up the viewing numbers and boom, spits out a cheque, it’s like having a thousand versions of you dotted around the globe in coffee shops getting paid for a consultation as someone jots down notes over a hot beverage and a wave of satisfaction that you helped someone get forward in their learning for a moment. It’s cool.

I think that’s a great goal to have this month, all power to you, if for nothing else, dropping the mental baggage at the gates and taking the hire car and just driving outta there — it’s a great feeling ;)

I’ve got a pretty laid back day today — some client work no doubt will come in and then I’m gonna look at the new websites and see where we need to improve on that and I’m sure we can use it after today to drive by some of the ‘potential’ jobs on upwork that are popping up daily now, now is the time to snare the work for the rest of the year.

Ya ready? Let’s get it.

I’ll speak to you shortly.
Lots of love and hugs and stuff,

Da Mouser,
