The Friday Thing #878

Hermes was a popular one last week - thanks for all the notes on it.

The Friday Thing 878 is a brief one as I am traveling and off work today following one of my passions - motorsport. The Daytona 24-hour race is one of the highlights of the season and also a great chance to talk to people about the potential for AI in the sport. More on that next week perhaps.

I saw two brief entries on the FS blog last week that I really appreciated. They're listed under "Tiny Thoughts" which if I restarted that Friday Thing, I would steal that name.

The first entry is "Two rules to help you be consistent with exercise this year"

1. Show up.
2. You can quit tomorrow.

Repeat.

I like that a lot. It reminded me of this classic Nike ad and though both are focused on fitness, they're good for life, I think.

The second entry is "Stick to the basics"

1. Be reliable.
2. Do your job.
3. Speak for yourself.
4. Outcome over ego.
5. Focus on the details.
6. See challenges as opportunities.
7. Go to bed smarter than when you woke up.

I love the whole list but at the moment, #7 really speaks to me as I am investing my time in learning some new things for an upcoming adventure. More on that soon too :)

That's all for this week. Music is same as it was this time lasty year. Chris Rea with Daytona.

Happy Friday.

cheers,

Steve
