Wk 26-26 – Weekly Note

Notes, thoughts and highlights from Week 26, 2026.

28 June 2026.
Saturday. CP.
Yeah I am in delhi. Till the 2nd July. In case you are around, let’s meet.

So, I missed last week. And there are odds that I will miss this week as well. Let’s see if this gets published.

The thing is, when I am on the road, my regular rhythm breaks. I need about 2 hours on my laptop in the morning to make sense of my day and my life and my dreams and all that. And when I am travelling, am unable to get these two hours. Take last week for example. I was in Goa. And that meant I had the view of the beach to wake up to, the unpredictability of local commute to think about and absence of a regular table or a chair to sit with my laptop on. Till I decided that I will goto Starbucks (lol) there.

Lemme announce it loud. I dont do well with holidays. I cant see myself not doing anything. I thought I could rawdog thru life and in flights but the last few flights have proven otherwise. I was restless and I didnt know what to do to kill the 2 hours I was in the plane for. While I am on the road, at least I have the internet!

Plus lately, I’ve realised that I am unable to focus on one thing when I sit idle. My mind’s a playground for monkeys. Must get back to meditation. Taking a note.

Ok, the track of the week is no track but an artist. Geet Brajesh. I found him, thanks to YT algo gods. See some of his work here. He’s criminally under-rated and I wish I could help such folks.

Do see his work. And this gem…

Oh and honorary mention to this version of Rahman’s work.

Ok, lessgo…

Highlights, reflections, updates, notes and thoughts from the week gone by.

1/ June Focus and July Focus.

For the month of June, I had made a list of things that to work on. Here is the list and updates on that.

Distribution. No action.
66 MG Road. Took it a certain stage. Started to talk to people about it. Got a friend to agree to have 66 MG Road as his property partner. Thanks, Ojas.
Caravan Serai and 56 Hours. 56 Hours was shipped. I dont like the outcome but draft one is done. Need to work on draft 2. Caravan Serai would happen as well.
Coaching: fitness and IRL confidence and Public Speaking. No action.
Revenue from Claude. No action. But I’ve been able to save resources and all. As we speak, I got Claude to make a research doc that wouldve taken an intern 2 weeks. Lot of manual work is now easy to pull off. So, there’s savings. But there’s no revenue.
Fix 25: furniture, AC. I fixed the AC. I need to work on furniture. I will do that once am back in Bom. Or may be in Aug or Sep. If all goes well, I will spend Aug away from India. Let’s see.
Fix the CA for C4E. Open. My laziness.
A world problem to solve. Still open. Let’s see what I work on.
Poker. No action.

Phew!

In July, I plan to give my life to Claude and I will do EACH thing it tells me to. Including workouts. Or cold emails. Or offering things. Or whatever. Lets see how I fare on that. Just that in July, I am on the road for about 15 days and about 7 of those are in Colombo with limited internet. I will see how it pans out.

This also means that I will ask Claude to plan my July. I ran a basic query and this is what it threw out. The query is…

from what you know about me, I want you to be my boss for the month of july and tell me what to work on and what to eat and what to do and all that. make a monthtly plan, a weekly plan and a daily checklist. I must get closer to my short term goals, long term goals and all things that I want to. I want to impact all parts of my life as in tony robbins' wheel of life.

Here’s what Claude plotted for me. I am sharing excerpts.

1/ BD

Monthly client BD email (TOMA). Drafted in January, sent zero times in five months, 30+ warm clients. Send Jul 4. Then the last Friday of every month, forever

I hate seeking work. But then I shall do what Claude is asking me to.

2/ Starbucks

Kill the Starbucks leak: two coffees a week, no pastries. Track it.

3/ Fitness

Buy running shoes Day 1. This has been open since early May. It ends Monday.
Target: fat loss plus energy, veg. Protein floor 100g, portion control, 3L water, carry the bottle.
Run or walk 3x in Week 1, build to 4-5x. Strength 2x. 8-10k steps daily.
Posture device 2 hours a day. You log zero wear. Wear it during deep work.
Weigh in every Monday. One number, not a story.
Full meal and training template is in the daily checklist file.

4/ Friends and Network

One CMO of a large company this month. It is on your life goals list. Pick the name by Jul 7, get the meeting by Jul 25.
Keep the intro engine running: two warm intros a week (you did two in a day on Jun 25, you are good at this). Use it deliberately.

Lol!

I am not sure if this is the most optimal. I think I will have make Claude work harder.

Oh, I must say. I was seeing a documentary about a drug lord and one of the ways he was caught was thru his public Strava links. Even though he was crisscrossing the world, he kept running. There’s something to learn from that!

2/ Ertan / NewYorkTurk

Since I’ve been booted out of Meta platforms (thankfully am still on WA), I while time on YT Shorts. And I’ve become fan of Eartan’s work. See it on Insta and YT.

Love his work. And his philosophy. If there is one kind of influencer I would want to become, it is Ertan.

Guy loves food. Goes to places that make great food. Talks about them.

I dont know what made him so famous. There must be a million food bloggers and yet he sort of broke out enough to be on my timeline. I wish there were more such folks in the world.

Oh, here’s my attempt at being the food blogger. See this post about a restaurant I went to on this trip to Goa.

3/ Claude Coach tells me that I keep opening threads and closing none

Sigh!

This is not a surprising thing tbh. Just that its strange to have someone else see deep into my soul. And this someone else is an AI. And its not surprising. I’ve known about it. Lately my docs tell me that I need to get diagnosis for ADHD. I am not sure. I dont like clinical things. But, while we think on that, armed with the knowledge that we are good with 0 to 1 (thanks, Pradeep), here’s my thought on this.

One option is to fight it out.
Take meds. Take up a boring job.

Or the other is to make it into my strategic advantage and rather than thinking about building a billion-dollar enterprise and dreaming of a ding in the universe, I’d rather build a series of smaller bets and then see if those can scale as a group. Something that Ajeet Sir probably does. Something that Warren Buffet does for sure. Something that a lot of micro VCs and Venture Studios do. I’ve written about Tiny, Every, Bending Spoons and others. The C4E Labs website is an attempt to get thinking in that direction.

Plus, I think I may be able to make it work as well. I am afterall if nothing good with people! Wait. I am not. I am unable to retain folks cos I cant pay. I need to fix that too.

4/ Writing everyday

This caught my eye on twitter.

If my anecdotal evidence is go by, I think this is true. I’ve been writing for a lot of time now. At least since 2004. And I’ve not taken any large breaks tbh. I’ve always come back to it. This blog and the weekly review is also the same.

And if there’s one thing that I’ve learnt in life, it is that all you have is no one. And if you are the kinds to write, life is good!

5/ Om Malik

I’ve known about Om as I’ve known about other folks of his time (you know, Arrington and Techcrunch guys, Rafat Ali and his gang and other Internet writers). I would read their reporting with fascination. Their words and thoughts were the only window for me, sitting in Delhi / Gurgaon / wherever I was at the time.

And then, life happened. I got busy with an events job that made me travel wild. Then I started to build C4E and never had the time or the energy for these fanciful things. It it around COVID when I got back to reading, since I was super jobless. And in these reads, once in while, Om and his words would appear.

Lately, since he became so prolific, he started coming more on my radar. Pradeep shared quite a few links. And my fascination fom his words and writing grew even more.

And then I got to know he’s passed away. And I was genuinely sad. He was a stranger to me but I will still sad. And then tributes started to pour in.

Daring Fireball said this. Matt wrote this. Matt maybe doing an OmFest on his 60th. Do check it out. Found this in Nabeel’s post…

But the one thing that REALLY caught my eye was PG’s post. He mentioned this about him.

Was immediately reminded of stories of Charlie and his last few days. Even Steve was apparently working till the last week he was forced to be indoors. Made me realise how much respect I have for folks who have so much to do, so much to say, so much to contribute and so much in them them that they can’t sit idle!

I think this is all there is to life.

Help others.
Offer your shoulders.
Expect little.
And like Scott said in his last words, Be Useful.

6/ Money

Ok, money.

So, last couple of nights, I’ve been getting money dreams. And it’s not cool. I cant remember the last time this happened. The last time I was this bad in my money department was in COVID. The funny thing is, the last time I didnt know what to do. This time I think I have way too many options of things to do ;P

The point is, I have never been stressed about the lack of money. I’ve always managed to tide thru. I am like that cockroach. I would ride thru this time too. Just that I am in the middle of messy middle and I need to stay calm while the waters clear.

And once the waters clear, I will do things that I’ve never done – such as, choose myself. More on this if I survive the next few months.

Oh, you must read this piece by Tim Denning. It’s titled, “If you’re so smart, why can’t you make money on the internet”. Ofc, a riff on Naval’s legendary, if you are smart, why arent you happy / rich?

7/ Amex + IDFC

The other day I was denied access to the AMEX lounge at an airport because I was not carrying my physical card. In 2026. When the entire world is crying about going digital and even them passports are not digital. But I get it. They must have policies.

Of course they have policies.
Of course, I can argue.

But then is it worth it?

I would waste my time talking to customer care (I did try) and listen to them offer fake apology that will not help anything.

If you are a business like Amex that charge a premium to even issue a credit card, why would you make life of your customers hell? And break the relationship?

Same thing happened with IDFC bank. I have a banking account with them for my business. They charged me 1000 bucks randomly for not keeping a balance of a lakh. Which I would’ve been ok, if they had told me that when I started my bank account. Again, 1000 bucks. I dont really care about it. But why these stupid practices?

And its not that these banks are monopoly services. There are 100 other banks that offer comparable service levels. I hope that my P&L is never that stuffed that I take my customers for a ride.

I will be cancelling both these services this week. Just that it’s a pain to even cancel these. Sigh.

Just that as a young man, I always wanted to get an AMEX card and get access to those lounges. But I think I dont really care for these anymore. Either its the maturity or the Stoicism talking.

8/ Sovereign LLM

I can no longer imagine my life without a LLM. And within that, I am maximalist on Claude. But the way Fable was taken away, if the base models are taken away as well, I wouldnt know what to do. and I cant imagine being on Sarvam or Krutrim or whatever our models are called.

I know I can get Ollama and Kimi and I dont know what all. But at this point, I am far from that. I dont even know how to switch if Claude went offline tomorrow. So, once I get some time, in the month of July, I will probably invest my energy into building a system that allows me to have open source models and tools and I can get my work done.

If you know someone who’s been able to do this, please do point me to them.

9/ Live near a beach

This thought landed in Goa. That I would love to live at a place where I can see the sea. And dip my toes in the water often. Right now, in Mumbai, I get to go to the Sunset Club often but that still is like a 2-KM walk and I often am unable to make that walk.

I want to be able to hit the water in like 3 minutes of stepping out of my house. And I know it comes with many perils but I think it would be worth it.

Lets see when that happens.

10/ Other things

This is a list of things that caught my eye.

Meta + Cred. Kunal Shah was “brought” by Meta for a billion dollars. I wish Om had written about this. There are so many angles – a founder leaving the company that was ridiculed for no business model. The company that has no readily identifiable leaders. The wants of Meta to be a player in the payments piece in India. A single person commanding a billion dollars. Wow!
I need to think about how is it that each person I follow on X is making money off the Internet and I havent been able to. Or is it a bubble? And why and how? And what am I missing?
Happiness. Steve Cutts. Here.

📷 Photos from the week gone by

Lots of photos from Goa.
Lots of screenshots.
As always, ask me if you want access.

But here are some screenshots I took. Without context.

Such a simple insight. I must write a longer post on this.

I dont know why they slapped a Kapoor on a Bachchan line.

📈 Trackers…

I need to restart this. Since I automated my tracking, I have forgotten what I was posting here. Lemme get back to it next week. Meanwhile, these are the trackers that I was using…

1/ Daily cadence on important things.
I havent updated this in a while. I have automated most of these with Claude.

2/ Weekly update on things that are important to me.
Again, havent worked on this in a while.

3/ Mood tracker
This was anyway intermittent.

✅ Action on LARGE objectives for the year

In this section, I will capture my progress on large objectives for the year.

In 2026, I plan to do the following three things…

Book2
Human Flag Pole
Save a million dollars

Book2 / Caravan Serai.
If all goes ok, should be out before end of June. We are 3 days away from it. So yay!

Human Flag Pole.
No action.

Save a million dollars.
No action worth reporting.

📌 So, what did I get done last few weeks? And what will I do next week?

This is a one-line report on progress I made on various things that are important to me. I will only talk about things that I got done. Shipped. Not WIP.

Health. Sleep, food, movement.
Nothing specific. I’ve been unwell for almost a week now with a sore throat and a bad body ache.

C4E / Work. Pick a thing to apply myself to.
Yet to find out. Am terribly behind this. I think I will end up doing a portfolio of small best?

Brand SG / Distribution.
No action. Except some Claude experiments. Those too are more inputs, than outputs or outcomes.

People.
Cant say any large updates.

Book2 / Caravan Serai.
This should be checked off!

🏃‍➡️ Health

No large actions.

⏲️ Reminders from last few days

Same as last few weeks. Parking this section.

I think the tracking system I made (I talked about it above) could solve this for me. I wrote about it here briefly.

Yet to fully exploit it. The travel and sore throat put a spanner. Lemme give it a few more weeks.

🗓️ So, one thing that defines the past week?

Drift.

Yea!

The other words for this year have been: Freedom, People, Motion, Show, Flow, Excitement, Embarrassment, Blur, Whiling, Movement, Blur, Activity, Movement, Regular (again), Regular, Easy, Journey, Downtime, Flow, Show, Same, Motion, People.

—
So that.
Over and out.
Until next week.

Oh, and this too shall pass.

Wk 04-26 – Weekly Notes

Notes, thoughts, ideas, links and some photos from week 4, 2026.

7:41 AM, Tiruvannamalai

New Week.
New City.
And I love it!

This week, I was in Ahmedabad, Mumbai and then Chennai. And now here. Loved it. It’s good and bad.

Good – I got so many new experiences, new sights and new smells. You know, something shifts your internal chemistry when you have new experiences touch your soul.

Bad – The routine gets screwed. I sleep on unfamiliar beds, eat things that you dont want to eat, dont have a table to write on (I am writing this lying on the bed) and I am unable to work out. I can only imagine how the traveling salesmen, athletes, celebrities manage their fitness!

Ok, ranting. Lemme get to the weekly notes.

💭 Highlights, reflections, updates, notes and thoughts from Week 4, 2026

These are not in any order. And like last wee, I will try to include as many photos as I can.

1/ Ramana Maharishi

I am at Tiruvannamalai to visit Sri Ramanasramam, the Ashram of Ramana Maharishi.

I am not a religious person. Neither am I spiritual to be honest. I am indifferent. I am probably that Nihilist Penguin in human shape. Lol.

Anyhow, the visit has been worth it.

Especially cos it needed the grind to reach here (a flight to Chennai, a 4-hour road trip that became 8-hours long (thanks to a rally by Modi Ji) and the hunt for a place in the large town. If you get things easy, you dont respect those ;P

And some bouts of clarity that struck me.

No, I am definitely not the illuminated one. Never was. May get to that some day. But now that I’ve spent a day or two here, I did get some thoughts. For starters, I am a LOT more aware of the constant bombardment that we subject ourselves to. That I subject myself to.

While I was in the ashram, I didn’t use the phone and it was painful for the first few minutes. And then the silence engulfed me. And even when it did, there was this revolt from my system. I found myself reaching to my phone more than once, tbh.

I found myself thinking about how you can invest your time enquiring about who you are and what’s the purpose of life and all that. Or you can run the rat race (do see this). Or how you can discharge your duties and while you do that, you are helpful to people, the world and thus, in exchange, to yourself. And maybe that’s there is to life.

Truth be told, I’ve known this for a long time (that I need to be useful and be of help to people and that my salvation is in helping others get to their respective salvation). Each spiritual or inward experience brings that to surface. The only addition that seems to be happening lately is the move towards the oneness. I am far from it, especially because of actions and thoughts of so many people seem so… stupid.

Ok moving on.

One striking thing that I noticed about the Ashram was that there was no conversation about religion at all. While the leaning is clearly towards Hinduism (I could be wrong), there were no overt showcase of religion.

The most important thing I noticed is that simplicity with which he lived his life. They’ve preserved two rooms where Ramana Maharishi seemed to have lived, died and held meetings. And the rooms were tiny and sparse. An astute builder would have sold that much space as a cosy 1 BHK but we are talking about a guy who commandeers thousands (if not lakhs) seekers. And yet he lived in place with no opulence. Room barely large enough to do even yoga, white bedsheets and literally no furnishing. Made me wonder why do people chase opulence of palaces and kingdoms.

Reminded of that couplet by Mehshar Afridi. He says,

“Rehta Hai Sirf Ek Hi Kamre Mai Aadmi, Uska Guroor Rehta Hai Baki Makaan Mai!”

And no, this is not to be confused with Minimalism or hoarding. This is more from the space of needing little. You may or may have large wants. I’ve been there – want a lot, hoarded a lot, reduced those. And now I am an advocate of Optimalism – things that you need to live a good life. This includes, limited number of clothes, comfortable bed, cool bedroom, air purifier (while in india lol) and a Starbucks ;p

Lol!

Only I could have compared Starbucks and Sri Ramanasramam in one note. On the mid-wit curve, I am either the illuminated one. Or I am stupid. You decide. And lemme know.

So, to end this part, if I were to talk about who am I, these things come to the top of mind…

Medium thru which things happen. In words of Gokul, a medium of opportunity exchange.
Cheerleader of action.
Enable others to get to their salvation.
Be of service to the world around me. In words of Scott Adams, be useful.

And like most lists and things, this is WIP.

Ok. Moving on.

2/ Sleep

Lets move to worldly things like sleep and all that.

My sleep has been all over the place this month. Many reasons. The big one is of course all the travel. And the minor one is all the distractions. And I want to fix it. I can control the distractions for sure – other things will need some thinking.

I have realised that with age, unless I get my sleep, I am unable to function well. And on top of that, with lesser time at hand, I want to optimize the time that I am up. And thus means that I need to get more from my sleep.

You see how this is a vicious circle?

3/ Constant Simulation

Marrying 1 and 2 above, I am acutely aware of this constant simulation that I have subjected my mind to. I mean there is not a second in my day when I am not jumping from one thing to another. And that’s NOT cool at all. I can’t be of service to the world (or my loved ones) if I am unable to get deep into things.

So I need to find a solution.

I can start with the modern-day boon and bane. The mobile phone. I will fix my life.

So, over the next 21 days (habit formation and all that), lemme try to fix this. And while I am at it, I will also try to add some more good habits.

So, I will be off SM (unless work), eat only Lal Babu’s food (if I am in Mumbai) and average 15K steps per day. And if I can do these three, without an exception, I will reward myself with a trip to Singapore in March.

Off SM means I will delete apps from phone (use only on laptop and that too ONLY when I am in a Starbucks). I will not actively post (unless someone asks me to open it). I will use my YT lives and these weekly updates as a way to share what I am upto.

Eat Lal Babu’s food means the things that are cooked in my kitchen by Lal Babu. If I am travelling, I will see what I will find to eat.

Steps is easy. Wherever I go.

To be honest, I was unable to stay off social media cos I thought that I will miss out on something important. I mean look at how fast the world is moving! But then, fuck the FOMO. I am sure the Village will keep me abreast with what I need to know. And news important enough for me to know, will reach me!

Oh, and this starts the day I land in Mumbai. Lol!

4/ Making Health my identity

Marrying the three above, I think I will make health my identity. Lemme explain.

A person like Virat Kohli is paid to play well. The largest ingredient in that is to be fit – physically and mentally. An actor like Ranbir Sing is paid to look good. The largest ingredient is perceived beauty. A corporate leader is paid to make great decisions. A large part of that is low cognitive load and thus they are offered comforts.

I am not an athlete, not an actor and not a corporate leader. In fact, I refuse to let my identity come from the work I do. However if I dont want my body to fail my brain, I need to keep the body well.

If I were to look at my work, I am probably paid to think and connect. Connect people, dots, things. And get things done. And I do all this with a lot of enthusiasm, effort and emotion.

Now, if I could do the same effort with same three Es, for my health, I would get fitter. So that.

Side Note: I saw a reflection of me in a mirror while I am here (in a tee and pants) and I dont like how I look. And this, I want to change.

PS: Credits to this book that I am reading.

5/ Chennai

I have loved my time in Chennai this trip. There was less traffic (probably because long weekend), great weather (needed AC but I could walk on the roads) and great people (Aashik, Nikhil, Aditya, Shravan etc). And there was enough things to do. There’s something about relaxed, no-agenda meetups

Also reminds me that I must travel more often (lol).

Oh, this is a photo from a random traffic signal in Chennai. I am told that all these red signals have red hearts. Lol.

6/ Nagarathna Memorial Grant is now open

The annual Grant is now open.

In Thej’s words, “I am creating a yearly ₹1,00,000¹ micro-grant to support something meaningful. Grant is named after my mother – Nagarathna. The reason for grant could be anything as long its meaningful to you and people around. Though I prefer free and open source or creative commons projects, It’s not a must. It’s a no strings attached grant.”

I am a fan of Thej’s work and I support his grant. In fact, I instituted SoG Grant after I learnt about microgrants from NMG. I encourage you to apply and share word.

7/ Notes from flight to Chennai (AI 2780)

It’s no secret that I take notes when I am in flights, I take notes (this time I saw parts of a a movie as well and I must see more films as well and make more films) and here are some redacted, snippets from the flight.

I need a main quest that gives meaning to life. I think running a business is not a quest. While its creating and keeps me happy and engaged and all that, its not a big one. Think of the quests that Dr Peterson talks about. Think of a “provider” for a family.
I love being in flights. They allow me to think hard and deep about things. Need to make more such caves.
I realised that I dont work harder cos I have it easy. On paper, I have a business that throws enough cash at me to keep happy and maybe this is a problem? I dont talk about this often. Must do.
I am not even an petty thief!
What do I focus on this year – yet to find out. I have options – events, defi, Helio.
Live a life where I work hard, get paid well and I pay people well. Sanket told me this first. So that.

8/ Films

Staying on the notes, I think I must make movies!

I dont know why I keep coming back to it. There was a time when I was convinced that I wanted to make movies. I chased that dream. Made some moves. Failed. And now that I am back to thinking of the next steps, I find myself wanting to do movies! And even though I know that AI will screw this business, I am still keen on doing that.

This seems to be the constant itch that I cant seem to get away from. As a child, I had wanted to make ad films, then I wrote a book, then some short films and then I have been all over the place. I must either scratch the itch (make films and get over with it) or I must bury the hatchet!

9/ WordPress vs Substack

Substack seems to be evolving into a CMS and an ecosystem. It seems to be evolving into a blogger / Medium. Compared to wordpress, I think Substack offers a lot of advantages and I am almost on the fence about moving my words to Substack.

I typically want to own my content and words and all that and while on Substack as well, the words would be mine, I am still on the fence about it. The ones who’ve moved, what do you think?

Any other learned opinions?

10/ Misc things from this week

Here are some thing that I want to capture but not necessarily talk about in great length.

This speech is kickass. Do see. It talks about The Power of the Powerless. One of the best texts I’ve ever read in a long long time.
This group of musicians, Patiala Mehfil, has my heart. Each time I see a great music act, I want to get into that business.
This campaign by Plum is KICKASS. I wrote about it here. If you are a marketer, please take note.
DD held their Darbar in Chennai. OFC, I didn’t attend it but a win for someone from the village.

Guess this is it.

I dont have a lot of reads, link etc this week (travel, you see). Maybe more next week.

🈺 Photos from Week 4

Here are some.

Over the next weeks, I will retire this. Takes a lot of time and gives no ROI. Plus I now include pics in the commentary section. Lets see.

🈺 Trackers from Week 4

At some point in time, I will have detailed trackers to show. But for the time being the small numbers that I have tracked are…

Average Steps -9047. I want this to be 15K over the next 20 days or so.
Pickle Sessions – 1. I want this to be 3 over the next few days. I also want to upgrade to Paddle one of these days.
YT Live Sessions – 4. Missed for the 22nd, 24th and 25th. Will miss 26th as well unless i do it from the car, en route to Chennai. Let’s see.

What is missing?
Well, sleep, workout, yoga sessions, food, emotions, habits, money and more.

🈺 Action on LARGE objectives for the year

In this section, I will capture my progress on large objectives for the year. In 2026, I plan to do the following three things…

Book2
Human Flag Pole
Save a million dollars

No action last week either. Jan is almost over and I have not moved an inch on this! Also, last week I mentioned that if I am gonna be moving around this year, how do I keep consistent towards the goals. I dont know the answer. Will think.

☑️ So, what did I get done last week? And what will I do next week?

This is a one-line report on progress I made on various things that are important to me. I will only talk about things that I got done. Shipped. Not WIP.

I will get back on this in the next update. This year, I want to track the following…

Health. I will work on sleep, food and movement.
C4E / Work. I want to shortlist some idea that I want to work on.
Brand SG / Distribution
People (Family, Friends, Strangers, etc)
Book2. I want to start with this.
Shauk (Music, Films, Poker etc)

🏃🏻‍♂️‍➡️ Health

I added Health as a key section last year. I read somewhere that you need 4 things to live long – sleep, exercise, diet and community. I will track all four. And then some more variables that I feel are important to me. Let’s see what comes out.

Like the last one, no action. Give me a few weeks.

🧠 Reminders from last week

This section captures things that I want to not forget. I add those to SG’s Office. I will copy paste these week on week and track updates.

Again, need a few weeks

See you around.

Oh, and this too shall pass!

PPS: Please do point typos.

PPPS: In case you see me being inconsistent in anything – work, writing, reviews etc, PLEASE do point out.
