@jasonleow I've been through the fire with a keto diet, so let me know if you run into issues or have questions or want some resources.

@haideralmosawi Remember I’m a consultant who will borrow your watch to tell you the time (for a fee) ?

@haideralmosawi Welcome back to #Teamstreak! Let’s keep this candle ?

@haideralmosawi Well I wouldn't want to give away all my secrets.....?

@anurag619 I have been a fan of Medium as well. I do like the statistics. As you stated, the interface to write a story with a few options for formatting is easy to use. It is a great place to write a...

@Arcticloon There is an adage in poker: "Think long and think wrong." There is such a thing as thinking too much about something. Even not making a decision is itself a decision, often a bad one.

@Stardust It is a grim situation that in many parts of the world including the US, the cheapest food is the least healthy for us. I do think it is worth exploring the notion of a life span vs a health...

@urvishshah Congratulations on your first post. Welcome to the community.

@ngoctran You have been consistent for 28 days on 200WAD. I'm looking forward to extending to you an invitation to join #Teamstreak.

@knight This reminds me of a George Carlin joke. He talked about the terminology when two planes almost collide calling it a "near miss" when it's actually a "near hit." I'm glad it was an almost miss...

@sandradeanda Congratulations on your first post. I agree with you about the presumption built into such questions. Getting married and having kids is what "most people do," so any people who aren't n...

@seunoyebode You bet. I had to impose restrictions on myself.

@5plus6 I was not offended. Sometimes life hammers you. The real question is are you going to get back on the team?

@seunoyebode I did have unhindered access to the food I craved. Didn’t work out so well. But I’m fixing that.

@keni I think the big takeaway is that luck, like so many things, is not about things happening to you but a function of awareness and actions you take to be in a position to take advantage of opportu...

@jasonleow I can’t wait either! ??

@chacha Great job! I should take a test on that site and give you a score to beat ?

@phaidenbauer It's probably just as well. Heroes is one of those shows that started out so great and then really went off the rails.

@5plus6 "forget the damn streaker thing" Not an option for me. #Teamstreak I am happy to welcome you back if you change your mind.

@keni What is it in the preparation that makes the eggs Ethiopian?

@phaidenbauer Sounds interesting. Is it like the NBC show Heroes but R-rated?

@seunoyebode @keni That is such a great piece. Always a good reminder. For some reason, I just randomly thought of the old Gatorade commercial "Be Like Mike." https://youtu.be/b0AGiq9j_Ak The first li...

@jootomscastroemelo Congratulations on your first post. Welcome to the community. I believe the term we would use is "twin cities."

@valentino Toilets--I've heard the adage, "If it's yellow, let it mellow. If it's brown, flush it down."

@valentino That reminds me of when the original iPhone was released. There was a news story that pointed out the empty space for icons above the dock calling it the "most coveted real estate in the te...

@keni Thanks! Moving in the right direction...

@abrahamKim I was an Apple fan before it was cool and then not cool to be an Apple fan. I have an iMac, MacBook, iPad mini, and iPhone Xs. That said, not everything that Apple does is a home run to me...

@keni If you are ready for a new audiobook, I highly recommend Can't Hurt Me by David Goggins. That was the first book I listened to on Audible and it was very good.

@abrahamKim Or maybe they did notice the scratches, but everyone except Jobs had the belief that there was nothing that could be done about it.

@basilesamel Four projects..so two hands and two feet...if you decide to add a fifth project I don't want to imagine the appendage that will be used ?

@rasmusrygh Sorry, I have to challenge your first sentence. It is theoretically possible that you are in the tiny minority of people who have a genetic anomaly that allows them to function on very lit...

@brianball @keni He's lucky to have a good uncle to take care of him. I don't have much faith in doctors and the healthcare system either, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't use medical interventions if...

@adams Congratulations on your first post and your engagement! Welcome to the community.

@5plus6 Sounds pretty deep, but I think you should keep writing here to work to find the answers you seek.

@santhoshguru "I was thinking that some dude called Mark Manson killed the pregnant Sharon Tate." That was a good laugh for me.

@valentino Wow there's a power user if I've ever seen one. Would restoring from a Time Machine back-up make any of this easier or you like starting from scratch?

@craigpetterson That will definitely be a topic in my book. In the meantime, here is one example: https://www.businessinsider.com/daylight-saving-time-is-deadly-2018-3

@5plus6 Welcome back to #Teamstreak! Are you in it for the long haul?

@lucjah When you play very close to the edge, sooner or later you run out of rope.

@craigpetterson Here you go. I'll add @phaidenbauer since he is working on new habits that undoubtedly will intersect with sleep. https://200wordsaday.com/words/once-you-start-having-inadequate-sleep-...

@phaidenbauer I couldn't wait to see this post to comment on your experiment, especially as it relates to sleep. There is a big difference between sleeping for 6 hours compared to 10-12 hours. I agree...

@Arcticloon The streak goes on. Keep going. #Teamstreak

@keni I would not have expected your reaction to this event. I am not a huge fan of crowds or masses of people either, but for some reason being in that environment didn't make me uncomfortable the wa...

Aug 18, 2019 15:24 I've almost... @lucjah The fire says otherwise...

@lucjah The fire says otherwise...

@phaidenbauer With the plan to wake up at 5, what’s the plan for going to sleep and what time? Hint: 10 PM is probably too late.

@juliasaxena Great attitude and a lesson in how it's not what happens to us but how we react to it.

@rosieodsey Love the enthusiasm! I look forward to seeing how this takes shape.

@craigpetterson Whoa whoa what's this going to bed at 3 AM???

@efran A Sunday doing some work instead of being lazy on the couch!? ?

@haideralmosawi @basilesamel One Sunday morning I was in Paradise Valley, AZ at a Barnes & Noble waiting for a student whom I was tutoring and the actor Vince Vaughn walked in. He was disheveled and l...

@gautam__jain Congratulations on your first post. Welcome to the community!

@arthurkendall Thank you for such kind words. I appreciate your thoughtful response.

@phaidenbauer Sounds like a very complicated setup just to watch porn. ?

@brianball You and those six-pack abs ?I have four posts in the queue at the moment.

@jasonleow Speaking to the diet concern, you are right switching from a mostly high-carb junk diet to keto is very difficult. You have to get over the hump, which is just a tough road for the first we...

@basilesamel You are on fire and unstoppable!

@soulinantarctica I understand this dilemma completely. I learned the lesson of "get good at something worth getting good at" later in life. I am sure the ideal job exists for you, but you may have to...

@basilesamel Interesting word daemon. At first I thought you meant "demon" but then after reading the post I can see how daemon fits when alluding to how writing has become automatic. I feel the same ...

@phoenixrising62 Congratulations on your first post. Welcome to the community.

@brianball I look forward to a future post describing an interview with Steve showing us what he's made of his life so far.

@davidneuman 30 g of carbs/serving..eek that's my daily allowance. I will have to pass for now until I reach a point where I can comfortably increase carb intake.

@keni I knew about the speed feature, but I have not used it. Would you use a faster speed on a first run-through?

@davidneuman I am a big fan of sparkling water. I have had White Claw, and it is good. I don't drink much alcohol anymore. Protein pancakes...okay I look forward to that one.

@lucjah Per @jasonleow "Do better."

@jasonleow I agree although I would make one small distinction: establish the habit of showing up first, then get better afterward.

@jasonleow Showing up every day is the important part. I like the phrase, "Do better." Perhaps that will be my way of cheering on someone who turns in a "gibberish" post.

Aug 15, 2019 07:08 Here we go again @twizzle That's the spirit!

@twizzle That's the spirit!

@bravo626 Congratulations on your first post. Welcome to the community.

@jeannotchapdelaine Congratulations on your first post. Welcome to the community.

@keni Thank you as always #1 fan :)

@davidneuman Thank you! As always, I'll be sharing what I learn.

@craigpetterson The conclusion was the best part. Out of the funk and into the action to get things done!

@valentino I bought a pasta maker add-on for my Kitchen Aid mixer. Never used it. I have had fresh pasta, and it truly is amazing.

@philh Good ol' pizza delivery. I do miss it despite all the negatives.

@davidneuman Thanks for the tip. I shall start with the podcast.

@twizzle Sounds like it's time to open a discussion with the boss about these new responsibilities.

@keni @jasonleow Agreed don't set the bar low for yourself and the value you will provide.

@haideralmosawi Thank you for the thoughtful reply and very good tips. And for another TAP....

@A writer Congratulations on your first post. Welcome to the community.

@anurag619 Congratulations on your first post. Welcome to the community.

@jacklyons Ok somehow I missed your reference to the "Dark Side." To me, this means you resorted to an Android or Microsoft device for your post.

@chriswhite Congratulations on this momentous event and using this topic as your first post! Welcome to the community.

@basilesamel Sounds like a complete paradigm shift. I always wondered about this Unix/Linux. Perhaps I will explore the option at some point.

@efran Sugar is everywhere but it is not impossible to avoid it. The worst part is the first few days when you literally are detoxing from sugar. If you can make it past that hump it gets easier.

@phaidenbauer I think I have heard "resuscitate" or "bring back to life" but not so much reanimate.

@phaidenbauer Reanimate is an interesting term. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

@twizzle What you focus on expands. There is too much negativity in the world that needs to be counteracted with positive visualization. Motivational quotes are a great way to do this. I would not be ...

@jaimes.vinson @basilesamel #IntroductionOfficer ?

@brianball Interesting take. It leads to a good question we can ask ourselves: "Am I a violinist on the subway?"

@soulinantarctica It happens. Not every post is a masterpiece. Some you will be more proud of than others. The important thing is you showed up and did the work. Tomorrow is another day. Keep going.

@seunoyebode @abrahamKim Sometimes you just need a good laugh.

@jacklyons I'm glad you made the choice to continue the streak. Keep going. #Teamstreak

@brianball I used to get my money's worth at a buffet but definitely not anymore. It is interesting to think about pricing from the business side rather than from the consumer side.

@keni 5/5 so far. I'm not going to jinx myself for a perfect month because I know my schedule is going to get crazy at the end of August..but I'll keep the streak going at least until then.

@keni Thank you! It is gratifying to know that chronicling my journey here has the potential to inspire others to improve themselves. Let's keep going!

@brianball Hopefully not keto delivery from the 20+% of drivers who taste the food. Talk about a bad taste in my mouth when I read that article!

@craigpetterson It is an offering from Tony Robbins and Dean Graziosi called the Knowledge Business Blueprint.

@alina Congratulations on your first post, an awesome old school Star Wars reference, and hopefully the answers and practice that you seek.

@marcinjakubik What is your plan to get unburnt?

@ademervi The day does not begin when you wake up in the morning. The day begins when you go to bed the night before. You have control of your sleep but it takes work and discipline.

@craigpetterson I'm working through more modules in an online training course. The latest lesson is called The Success Loop and it clarified some things for me.

@rosieodsey You continue to impress me. Keep going. #Teamstreak

@brianball There are many people who have not learned the trick that taking action solves a lot of problems. Glad to hear you are being deliberate with your choices.

@keni Interesting. I will share with a friend who is interested in real estate.

@keni You're killing me! Oh well, you probably have movies on your favorite list that don't do anything for me.

@rachel Congratulations on your first post! Welcome to the community.

@efran I wouldn't be surprised if your daily writing habit helps you think about creating lyrics.

@davidneuman Very nice. It sounds like it might be time to dive back into music.

@keni None of those physical activities really spark me. Remember, I'm the guy who still has nightmares about being back in PE class in high school.

@jasonleow I knew I'd snag you in my net with this one. :)

@keni It is scary. We cannot rely on the government to keep food products safe.

@basilesamel So either such a thing does not exist, or it does exist and the marketing isn't good enough to find the ideal customer (me).
