Last minute change on the live recording tomorrow. Joe screwed up his schedule and had to move it earlier. Plan is 11am Central tomorrow. Sorry, team.
Just ran another test on my Dvorak speeds. I'm now up in the 120 WPM range. 😱
I’ve had an interest in the Dvorak keyboard layout for a couple years now. The concept makes sense to me and I’m finally doing something about it.

I'm almost done with my article on @ProtonMail. But until that releases, be sure to check out their site. 😉
Why, oh why, do I continue to read @ttscoff's hardware articles? 💸

I can't say I'm a part of this challenge, but I AM trying to turn my creative work into habits.

It's kind of fun to see how far I've come with the hPDA. Rather, how it hasn't changed much:
Ideas and reminders come to us when we’re not ready for them or when we can’t do anything about them. We remember to clean out the gutters when it’s raining....
MacSparky's Shortcuts Field Guide for iOS 13
David Sparks has done it again. He's just released a brand new Shortcuts Field Guide specifically geared towards iOS 13. I haven't had a chance to go through the whole thing, but I can tell you it's intense. There is a LOT of great video here. And since it's so great, I figured it was only fitting to create a Siri Shortcut that takes you to the Shortcuts Field Guide.
No tool is omnicompetent. There is no such thing as a master-key that will unlock all doors. - Arnold Toynbee
Tomorrow's Weekly Impulse is all about a paper reference system I set up at work. It's the first time I've done this since beginning my GTD journey seven years ago.
It's true. I've been using the hPDA for five years.
A little over five years ago I took a small stack of index cards and clipped them together with a small binder clip. The idea was simple and it was...

Five Years of Using an hPDA
A little over five years ago I took a small stack of index cards and clipped them together with a small binder clip. The idea was simple and it was one I took from Merlin Mann. It seemed like a helpful tool at the time and it was one that filled the need for ubiquitous capture. Five years later I'm still using the hPDA, but the ways I have used it are different from my original intent.
It is easier to act yourself into a better way of feeling then to feel yourself into a better way of action. - O.H. Mowrer
Three years later and I still reference these five books on a regular basis.
In the past I’ve wanted to be a reader and yet never picked up a book. But that changed when I said yes to Bookworm. Since then I’ve read 16...
