“Silicon Valley, despite being a supposed hub of innovation, one separated from the garish demands of regular industries, has culturally grown to resemble an open-air private equity firm where companies are incubated like animals bred for slaughter.”

Ok done for the day. Shutdown complete ✅
Cognition takes a precipitous dive post 6p.
best served for light reading / iterating / noodling
Energy highest in the morn. Tackle hard tasks then.
Doing this makes me a lot more self aware and intentional.
the plan got borked thrice in the day.
At least this time I got to be intentional about what I would do / ditch / delegate / postpone
And everything got captured, so my mind’s empty
It’s not natural doing this. And a bit hard.
So I’ll probably keep doing these, until the process becomes second nature.

third focused task.
did only a few minutes of work in the
self realisation: everytime i tackle something hard, i want everything around to be perfect. i need to know all about it. how long it will take. how it is structured and blah blah blah.
methinks for me, the solution going forward is to just dive in. and then recalibrate once i’m actually doing the work.
