Winning at life...Automation...and getting suckered into a contest by Mr @themarkymark
Mr @themarkymark posted a contest a few weeks back about getting sh*t done. I read through the description and was enticed to engage. He talks about his desire for efficiency and automation in his life. Efficiency is amazing and finding, building and implementing any tools that increase efficiency in our lives feels incredible.
A few days ago Mr. @themarkymark put out another contest with the same rules...Unfortunately I did not engage in the first contest due to poor documentation - I have rectified the situation and I am engaging in contest #2...thanks @themrmarkymark and enjoy...and any #steemparents enjoy as well...and if any of you know @lordvader his emotional state and generally bad attitude could really improve, as well as his ability to actually take over the galaxy with a little more automation in his life...he really should get sh*t done...

So the biggest problem with automation in my life right now you can see here...
Unfortunately and fortunately there is no automation for my 4 children. However...one day...my life will look like this -
This may be a slight exaggeration...but I doubt it - all I have to do is build up my kids into awesome little powerhouse kids that take ownership of their lives, our family, treat each other with respect and
do all the chores
I am in the process of this...its been going for several years...below you can find documentation of my entry into your contest - I will do my best to fill in with words between the pictures to help you capture the emotion and intensity that goes into me 'getting sh*t done in this particular expedition
As you can see the smug look of arrogance and independence on that creature below. He has the audacity to drop these little bombs of excretion in solid and liquid form all over the yard. There is minimal real regard for anyones feet or the aroma he leaves behind for myself or my neighbors. In addition to having to remove it from my yard, the shovels required to remove liquid feces are marred and unsuitable for other uses...in many ways actually hindering my automation and efficiency...terrible...
Now, I understand I could permanently remove the creature...but that could disrupt the force in my family unit...and is unfortunately not an option...
Automation is Clearly Needed
As you can see, the task has been taken on by these three strapping young men. It may have included some bribery and other forms of manipulation...but what you need to know Mr. @themarkymark is the process of automating my life and getting sh*t done is what you see above. Yes the immediate task is getting addressed but you really have to see and feel the automation that is being built in these world changers...
I have endured the smeared feces, the whining and complaining, the terrible attempts to convince me that their bodies can't do it for the sake of efficiency in my life...
All in good time these world changers will be able to remove excretion like machines. In addition to all the other chores and irritations that plague me around the house...the effort that you can imagine from this post will one day result in my kingship
Im sure you can imagine it...
in the mean time...we did actually get tangible sh*t done
have a fantastical day and cheers to efficiency and winning at life
Awesome! My career was software automation and I was exceptional at it.
Then I got three concussions in the last four years, the most recent 7 months ago, and I'm not able to do the work any longer. I can come up with ideas, but doing the work gives me headaches and I forget a lot which is not conducive to writing software...
Good luck with your entry! :)
indeed concussions are no bueno - sorry to hear that - thanks for following along!
I have had some concussions in my past, I have no challenges with my brain as a result of those that I am aware of but have tried to develop patterns and habits to help keep my brain active and growing. Research has been coming out more and more about the impact of brain trauma and its ability to heal. I have used https://danielplan.com/focus/ to help me. It has a strong faith component, but aside from that tons of helpful tips and disciplines. check it out if your interested
