2026 Resolutions (1st Month Update)
“Who’s this update for,” you ask? It’s for me. You know the old saying about goals … something, something … write them down … make them measurable. Something, something. Adjust, evaluate, and …something, something … don’t give up. Smart guy Gary Vaynerchuk says it… Continue Reading “2026 Resolutions (1st Month Update)”
2026 New Year’s Resolutions
For the entire month of December, I pondered and meditated about my 2026 Resolutions. Then…bam! It’s the “new year” and I’m off to a slow start. Or am I? Some resolutions only work if you start immediately on Day-1 (ie “Exercise Every Day”), but most resolutions… Continue Reading “2026 New Year’s Resolutions”
I Feel Bad I Wanted More Calm
Confession …over the years I’ve thought to myself, “Dan Dickerson is WAAAAAY to excited about _____________”. Shame on me. Think about his life for the last 11 years. Day in. Day out. Watching and talking about a baseball team that loses …and loses …and… Continue Reading “I Feel Bad I Wanted More Calm”
A Movement Movement (Hand Edition)
I’m starting a movement around …movement. Unless someone already started it, and in that case, I’ll join and promote their movement movement. It might already be called “ergonomics.” I’m starting with focusing on my hands (and then my feet and then my back and… Continue Reading “A Movement Movement (Hand Edition)”
Be Creative and Fun, Not for You, But for Others
Why do I have a Blog? It’s not to monetize it or become famous. That might happen, but it’s not my “why”. My “why” is because I like to write and be creative. My audience might be ten people. Might be 8 people. Maybe… Continue Reading “Be Creative and Fun, Not for You, But for Others”
Use Better Words
Each year, Lake Superior State gives us a list of banished words. I’m usually in about 90% agreement. For example, at the end of 2023, they said we all need to stop using “GOAT”, “amazing”, “it is what it is” and about seven more.… Continue Reading “Use Better Words”
I Love AI
Everyone is scared of AI. Not me. And even if AI eventually becomes sentient and takes over the world and enslaves humans, let me be the first to say hello to my new robot-computer overlords. My latest, “wow, AI is amazing,” came today because… Continue Reading “I Love AI”
#ResolutionADay 2024 – Day 15
I’ve made it to Day-15 of my #ResolutionADay. This idea is where, each day, I add a New Year’s Resolution to my year. These things are all not life-altering, but are a collection of small things that will add up to a great year. I’m… Continue Reading “#ResolutionADay 2024 – Day 15”
Reblogging It
I’m not sure if this is cool or useless. I’m able to “Reblog” an old Blog post. Which is what you see linked below. Sometimes I think life is about a series of experiments. Now I’ll spend the next half-hour Google’ing and watching videos… Continue Reading “Reblogging It”
#ResolutionADay
I tried it in 2019, 2020, and 2021. I’m convinced #ResolutionADay can be done. It’s a little bit the Kaizen Method, which is “small improvements every day”. And a little bit borrowed from Achieve Anything in Just One Year. It’s bodacious. It’s daring. It’s… Continue Reading “#ResolutionADay”
