How Hjalmer made Twitter enjoyable again.
I’ve updated the list of the books I’ve read this year. Less (14) than I had hoped (around 20). The lower number can be attributed to the fact that I’m a mindful reader and the size/density of the books chosen.
I have a plan for reading in 2020. I’ll post about that soon.
Every time I read the phrase “venture capital” my brain auto-corrects it to “vulture capital” because, well, let’s be honest.
A Whole Situation
“My gift requires a bit of explaining,” my sister Patrice announced as she placed the paper shopping bag on the ottoman in front of her. “I’ve got a whole situation going on in here!” she exclaimed.
Then, she removed some books from the bag and placed them in a stack. “These are my favorite books I’ve read this year.” She selected each one, gave a brief description of it, noted the ones whose authors she knew, and added personal anecdotes where appropriate with a bit of dramatic flair. “Everyone can choose whichever one speaks to them.”
It seems the simplest of gift ideas. Yet, it also seemed the most well received by all in attendance. An idea I’ll surely borrow for coming years.

Make Before You Manage – Tim Ferriss
The psychological difference between zero acts of creation and one act of creation, no matter how small, is impossible to overstate.
