Re Human Day 37

Re-inventing ourselves has always been the most important skill. 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: I’ve been listening to The Selfish Gene, but realized I didn’t take notes today—probably because also listened to an awesome podcast — Kevin Rose talking with Tony Robbins on personal finance but it’s actually on way more topics. Here is the link.

Re Human Extended Activity: Tuesdays is Music Production.

Spent time working on my existing project of adding beats on top of the “Vente Negra” Salsa song. Still nothing great. Something I had been trying to figure out is how often to place kicks so they follow the tempo of the song. Today I realized that if the project Tempo is set correctly (could be set to a different value than the sounds), then I can use the metronome to place beats every time the metronome sounds — and then it will be in the desired tempo!

Then I wasn’t seeing much progress/I wasn’t liking the edits I was making, so I spent the rest of my time in Splice’s beatmaker.

Writing: This post, code, and a daily thought.

Fitness: My warmup, human flag and handstands getting close, and triceps.

Meditation: 20mins in the morning.

Piano: Practiced the “final section” of La La Land’s Sebastian and Mia’s theme.

Soccer trick juggling: Today I got two around the worlds in a row! (in a row I mean without the ball falling in between, not actually “in a row”).

Connections, takeaways and Ideas for tomorrow
