This is my trick for keeping on top of my emails.
I have a placeholder that I try to clear above most weekdays.
I don't achieve it every day, but it's a marker to aim for.

Inspect and adapt sounds neat on paper. In reality, there's inbalance.
Inspection is easy. We're quick to spot what works or fails.
Adapting is harder. Change is uncomfortable. Feedback can sting.
More time needed for adapting. Safety, structure and achievability is required for everyone.

Mushrooms. High growth, high risk.

Mushrooms. High growth, high risk.
Found a mushroom today as big as a grapefruit.
The AI powered apps, guidebooks & two excited children all insisted I would be ok to eat it.
But instead I made them pause for a quick pre-mortem. I was keen to avoid a very real post-mortem. 🚑
“If this mushroom lands me in A&E, what went wrong?”

Similar to my assumption. Messy!

Oasis currently have a random song called Mandolay in their discography on Spotify.
It shouldn’t be there, but it’s a good one to dance around to if you fancy it.

Damaged my finger. It hasn’t healed in a couple of weeks, so I’m assuming strapping it to the next one with tape will sort it.
