Re Human Day 103
We are what we repeatedly do. I’m re-inventing myself by improving in 15 areas at a time.
This post is part of my Re Human project.
Daily Habits
Books: Today I continued listening to The Order of Time. Some notes from today:
Time is granular, not continuous. But ridiculously small grains.
The world is a collection of events, not ordered in time.
Meditation: 20 minutes at night.
Re Human Extended Activity: Fridays I’m a Graphic Designer.
Today I looked for nice fonts to use in some of my designs (ended up picking Averta Std, seen below, bottom-right corner), and arranged a couple of screenshots for my year reflection process post, like this one:
Writing: This post and work on a “How I reflect for and navigate a new year” post. I’m pretty much done. Posting tomorrow.
Digital Drawing & Painting:
Edited and added stuff to little humans to create this one:
Fitness: Today I trained pull ups, biceps, burpees, abs, chest.
Piano: Practiced the La La Land song. Have been doing with no flowkey, which is harder, but want to get it perfect without looking at any video/notes.
Soccer trick juggling: Today I trained at night. Wasn’t great because there wasn’t much light, but I still practiced.
Random Surprise
Three pretty cool writing tricks, to shave off words, that I had not seen before:
- Make things plural to omit articles. They can add up. Ex: “The teacher needs to know…” → “Teachers need to know….”
- Turn some prepositional phrases into adjectives. Ex: “Schools in urban communities” → “Urban schools”
- Some multi-word phrases can easily be turned into one word. Ex: “Due to the fact that” → “because”, “In order to” → “to”
