Daily

• a [[list]].
  • Of activities I would like to consider and review daily.
  • #go https://edit.anagora.org/daily pull
• [[Meditate]] for at least one minute now.
• [[Think]] about how to make my future [[self]] and others glad.
• [[Think]] about other long term goals:
  • [[Fight procrastination]]:
    • Update (2024): I think this fight is well advanced :) It still takes me too long to do some things, but I think I’ve gotten a lot better at prioritizing and a lot of the time when something does take me long it ends up being because 1. it is quite difficult (so it just literally takes time to do) or 2. I am balancing it with a lot of other things, so it makes sense it takes me a while to get to it.
  • [[Help others]]:
    • Update (2024): I have been quite involved in subsets of [[Effective Altruism]] in the last few years. Recently I ramped down some of my recurring donations to prepare for a [[new economic reality]], but I remain active and committed to donating a significant chunk of my income.
  • Build an [[Agora]]:
    • You are likely reading this in an Agora, so that exists :)
    • It still needs a lot of building and improvements, though, clearly. It needs to be more user friendly and more generally useful; ideally it would become a platform that is useful to a lot more people. But maybe we’ll get there!
  • Write [[Flancia]]:
    • I have been doing this, if at all, in the form of many small [[fragments]] spread across the Agora.
    • But I also want to do this properly, meaning sitting down and writing more long form text again in the shape of essays, short stories, blog posts.
  • Learn [[useful]] and [[interesting]] things:
    • That has happened over the last few years for sure :D
    • I hope it will keep happening for many more!
  • [[Maintain my body]]:
    • [[Yoga]] has thankfully become part of my routine and I’m much better off thanks to it.
    • I do some [[weight lifting]] but I should probably do more of this as I age (I’m [[40]] as I write this).
    • I have recently gotten back into [[cycling]] and that makes me happy as well.
• Find and allocate time to continue my meditation practice.
  • Write down the time now. Default: one hour after starting on this daily routine.
  • Update (2024): this has now been a core part of my daily routine for long enough that I can call this done. I usually meditate in the mornings after my first coffee and before I leave for the office. When I don’t do that because e.g. I need to leave in a particular rush or there is a production issue the minute I wake up, I meditate in the afternoon or evening.
• Go over pending tasks: [[do]], [[done]], etc.
  • Nudge them lightly as I can towards a state that my future self will appreciate :)
  • The fact that I don’t really have a properly unified task inbox is a bit of an issue occasionally; part of me likes the haphazard nature of task tracking in the Agora, but I’d love to have one place to look for loose threads and pending tasks.
  • At least once a week, review [[weekly]] in the spirit of [[weekly reviews]].
  • [[Agora writing]]
  • It’s time when it’s been more than 7d since the last review.
  • Default: [[sunday]].
• Think of what I wanted to accomplish soon/next for my top projects as I see them currently:
  • [[Agora development]]
  • [[Open Letters]]
  • [[p10g]]
• Do I want to do [[writing]]? Do I want to work on [[presentations]]?
