I started writing a follow up to my “Too Much Ambition” post, that was going to be a “What Am I Doing In Life” update, but it became far too lengthy of a post. Instead, here’s a quick version:
- Finishing my undergrad in Computer Science
- Contracting part time as a software developer
- Building my locost
- Running every weekday morning at 5am
- Spending real time with my family and close friends
- Reading books
- Cooking more
What I’m not doing (which is just as important)
- I’m not watching TV (literally I have no cable)
- I’m not playing video games
- I’m not working on a startup company in earnest until after I am done with school (this was a difficult decision for me, but ultimately a necessary one in order to be focused and successful)
- I’m not eating crappy/greasy food
- I’m not spreading myself too thin socially.. i.e. I try to spend as much time as possible with people who really matter to me, and give myself to them as much as possible
What about you? Where is your energy going, what are you focusing on? Look where you’re heading, is it a place you’d like to be?
