Costs up on everything and a decrease in value/effort. This is happening in the copper mining and related civil industry. Sure there are shilly consultants and whatnot (big M) but even design companies are giving low level engineering design and behind on everything. I cannot help but think that decades of inflation and poor incentives are coming to roost. They’re expected to work well beyond standard hrs and provide gold standard for cheaper. Rates are coming higher to recoup losses. Client requests also drive this but the ballooning of staff to do work for the same mine tonnage with lower recovery makes production even more critical. Perhaps engineering and mineral extraction can be revived on a bitcoin standard. Value for value.

Key points for training for me: Does the session have a goal that give me goose bumps? Y/N Can I do this outside? Y/N Will I feel better afterwards if either are done Y/N Then it’s a simple choice. :) Hope this helps.

Everything you plan out and work towards has to start with your Goal or Objective. This orients yourself correctly. You know where to start better if you know where you need to go. Also it’s likely that the simplest approach is more sustainable and best to build complexity on.

Daily reminder: get outside and see the sun. There is no substitute for it :)

Daily reminder: get in nature as best as you can. Yesterday I was out all day fishing and enjoyed every minute of it. The internet can be a powerful substrate for the world but nothing was as grounding as watching nature thru the day during the fall. The world is spectacular.

I used to be adverse to having kids. Thought it was too limiting on my life and interfered with my ‘experience’. Now I have a smile each time I see my wife with our son. You cannot go wrong having this in your life.

Vlog #1 Training Considerations: Goal-> Assessment-> Time to Execute.

You’re still a part of nature no matter how many pieces of tech or modern amenities you have. If you feel tranquil and at peace when in the woods take that as a sign Mother Nature is glad to have you back :)

The kids are not alright.

Something I heard from Dave Tate: instead of calling things goals he calls them objectives. Goals can be kinda vague and thereby limiting. Objectives, I might add, require a strategy to execute for an intended outcome. More specific and easier to hone in on. Also I think easier to adjust to if the strategy and execution become unaligned .

If your neck is feeling wrecked try this: Lay on the floor. Gently press the back of your head into the floor. May need a towel under it. Hold the press for about ten seconds. Slightly point chin to ceiling to moving your head position when you’re standing. I do this to ward off long time spent on a screen. Of course if it hurts stop.

This to me is a fascinating substance our body makes, melanin. Snipping from this study check out the table of what melanin does. If you’re worried about consuming fish with heavy metals you can lower your risk with ample sun exposure to the skin. Naked eyes, naked skin, photons get in.

As much as you can get outside and see the sun AM to PM. If you’re thinking about a family this matters. Mom informs the baby with external environmental cues Set them both up as best you can.
