Hair ties, bobby pins, & the huge luggage.
As far as i can tell, we commit ourselves to the functions of the day, and in a mode that minds our natural state to caveat into the satisfactory olympiad mode that is pre-empted with the “right gadgets”.
An olympian swimmer would need her swimming togs, a choice refined by the modules that she is to perform at her best, a tennis player his racket, and a violinist his fine-tuned instrument. Can we look to runners who gave their best to better their time methods (at a leisurely exercise method of habit? or at best, their strengthened muscular sinews that allows them to take longer strides?), probably as elastically as the ties that bind their hair back, and the shoes that they use to run with.
The reason Bond has Q, and Batman has Alfred, is as Jarvis-talk to the next iron athlete, as it is to me sitting at co-work spaces sussing out the daily trepping (yes that’s a word) that goes on in the quantifiably viable environments. We need people to handy us our daily tools, no matter what the cost (billionaired mobile-makers know this best), and sometimes, we like getting what we chartered for. That course, in that time (or better) is what we create these precise tools for, and the kind and the make matters, to get behind the purpose of why you do what you do. (Whether you could put that in 140 characters or less, or not.)
The places in which we make these, are an oncoming train of production in itself one of those “i can’t believe we haven’t done this before” moments hit everyone because the brilliance and economy of sharing a space - virtually and virally, is just ever so confluentially magnificent. So i have been doing this since 2011 hit the 3-year runway of a startup i was in the team of, that involved having an extra space that they developed the “extra income” of the space to train the next batches of incubates, and profoundly created the Digital Leaders of that year, of all shapes, sizes, and colours in creating what is the DLA.
So, when these products hit the market, the production line symphonies the introduction of a process, a line, a mere factory of repetitiveness that marks the annihilation of slack, and warrants the audience that has your creation mal-gotten. If your product is awesome, you are not to blame for wasting their time, nor fancying their attention a bit longer.
Digressing, my point was to offer a longer-run, future-forward adjunct to just the mere existing day-t0-day. And mark that for year on year, as you would the quality of product, and that would be your quality of life.
But, as for a short-term plan — you need to do the prerequisite trepping and being able to suss that out on both daily, as well as annual basis. Then you can possibly create a more generally acceptable / applicable cipher.
/Cipher/: (noun.) a way of decoding, or a message derived or written in a code.
We mostly confuse maps for ciphers, i think we need to be able to read or have a navigational skill to read a map, and the cipher is that tool in place of that sensibility to navigate that environs. A map steadies in its reflection of the road. A cipher develops ships & vehicles that apply to each environment -to equip you with tighter, more zeroed-in, substantiated navigational tools for the map.
