Weekly notes related to explorations, workout and family
Explorations
Last year, I came across Karan Bajaj, the Whitehat Jr founder and his journey. I happened to stumble upon his profile while reading a few infamous articles related to Whitehat Jr and Byjus but I was pleasantly surprised. I particularly found his tact of leveraging a sabbatical standout - here, here, here and here. Last week, I completed his book The Freedom Manifesto on Audible. It’s filled with a healthy mix of concepts and extremely practical ideas to make living a life of ownership a reality.
I also completed a crash course on Creative Writing on os.me. I found it to be very focussed with respect to covering the breath of non-fiction creative writing and to equip you with the right mindsent, tools and terminology to take on any sort of creative writing.
The Yellow Honey microlot from BlackBaza Coffee arrived.
Workout
I did a average of 9k steps last week + a healthy mix of swim workouts getting ready for my maiden open water swim. The experience of open water swim was one of a kind - truly felt one with nature.
Family
All of last week was Ibhan’s Dussehra vacation - apart from wanting to play everyday he also took out time to write a daily log of our 4 days Masinagudi trip. Like most things, most days were easy and freeflowing and few needed a bit more push. It’s fascinating to see him pick up cursive writing on triple lined notebook.
