Monday Mash-Up: 12/13/21

A short list of what I am focusing on this week

Hey everyone!

I am going to try and start sending out a list of a few things I am focusing on each week. Hopefully, this will keep me focusing on new and exciting tools and tips for personal development while giving everyone an insight into where my focus lies for the week.

That being said, here is your “Monday Mash-Up”, a list of what I’m learning and thinking about this week, broken down by category.

Enjoy!

Health and Wellness

• Am I following the right weight training protocol for strength gains as well as to increase my testosterone, metabolism, etc.? I’ve followed the same weight training regimen for quite some time now but a recent podcast episode has me looking into if I should adjust my training from my traditional thinking. Here is a clip from that episode that got me thinking about making some changes:

  Weight training can be directed toward specific hormone changes, using specific training protocols. Full conversation with @DuncanFrench, VP of Performance at the @UFCPI: hubermanlab.com/dr-duncan-fren…

Productivity

• Looking into Notion as a tool to keep all my personal “stuff” organized in one platform. I do not have any sort of partnership with Notion, I just saw another group using it and it piqued my interest. I just started using it last week and will get a review together soon if I decide to stick to it.

Technology

• Thinking about all the various uses of NFT’s (non-fungible tokens). With all the hype around NFT’s and the “metaverse” this past year, I am interested in learning more about the potential for NFT’s and where things might be headed in 2022 and beyond. This Twitter thread below really got me thinking.

Mind Blown 🤯

• NASA is launching a new telescope and it’s going to be wild what it tells us about the cosmos.

60 Minutes @60Minutes

“The end point is to put an end to our cosmic loneliness,” says astrophysicist Natalie Batalha. She will use the Webb telescope to study distant “exoplanets” for chemical constituents to try to “piece together... if it’s truly a habitable environment.” cbsn.ws/3IJiy27
