Syd Bleeds Shimano Brakes
by
Going to have to bleed brakes on my gravel bike at some point. At least when I upgrade it to proper GRX levers and full hydraulic brakes instead of the cable actuated hydralics it came with. Still very happy with my Felt Broam.
Time Blocking with Make Time
by
Clearly I’m a fan of time blocking, I put together a [course on it over at Skillshare](https://skl.sh/38MQzz8). Recently a new App [Make Time](https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/make-time-app/id1535796091) came across my radar so I thought I’d take a look at it to see if it was a reasonable tool to help manage your timeblocked day. Before we go further, Make…

Consistency is the Goal for 2021 – Friday Notes 130
by
Welcome back, I hope your holiday season was decent. I’d say amazing, but with 2020 being 2020, let’s go for decent because anything above that is a huge win. Many years I’ve tried to push forward some big goal in my business. Last year I wanted to turn my YouTube channel into something and I…
Big Ideas from Reading in 2020
by
While some people may give you their top books of the year, I’m going to talk about the top ideas that have change my thinking in the year. Things that I keep revisiting and feel I’ll revisit for years to come as I deepen my reading on those topics. How to Take Smart Notes The…
I’ve left Goodreads for Storygraph
by
For close to 8 years I’ve used Goodreads to track my reading. I didn’t know Goodreads before Amazon purchased them and never thought much about it. Lately that’s changed though. Amazon has so much data and [terrible business practices](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Amazon). I’ve been trying to remove Amazon from my shopping and life as much as possible. Luckily…
A Better Computer making me feel guilty
by
Been looking at trading in my 2018 Mac Mini (maxed out) for an M1 machine, but Matt is now making me feel guilty for looking at that upgrade. I do have a similar computer to what he’s using, but I have it as a media server up on the shelf with the TV.

by
I always take a look at Ryan’s recommendations for books but I’m linking to this because…dang those bookshelves. I totally want a room/office like that one day.
Emma Cragg, neat Bullet Journal
by
This is a decent not too fancy [Bullet Journal Setup from Emma Cragg](https://ekcragg.co.uk/article/my-bullet-journal-setup/). I’m just looking at closing out my 1/2 filled notebook from last year and moving to a new Bullet Journal (their new edition even) and have been thinking about how to track my goals. I like the single pages at the front…
Drew Coffman on Journalling in Roam – No one will look through your Roam graph after you
by
I love most of the sentiments here for journalling but strong question if someone will be looking through is “graph” in Roam Research (or any digital tool actually Roam is just what he cites and uses). Text on paper is so much more accessible. You find notebooks in boxes as you unpack from a realtive…
