I also realized that a great way to keep people coming back to my website is to make a Twitter account (http://www.twitter.com/OperationGYST) and a Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/OperationGYST) for the project. That way I can easily notify those who follow / like those accounts, instead of spamming all my friends whenever I've written something that I think is cool, but noone else cares about. Perhaps I should also make a Mastodon account? Hmm.

I've begun adding more content to my website. While doing that, I realized that I need more images for my articles, so I came up with the idea of sprinkling the text with photos of Lego knights. That turned out to be a lot more fun than I thought it would.

Hmm. How does one promote one's newly-created website without resorting to spamming its URL all over social media over and over? The site is about productivity. I have some ideas, but I'd appreciate suggestions.

The semantic web will be the next big thing in artificial intelligence research after ML, because it's a plausible way to crowd source the base knowledge that a general AI needs to have. It is for computers what googling is for humans.

I really like Mastodon. It feels so much social than other social networks.

I suspect it's because none of our real life friends use Mastodon, we feel the need to make NEW friends here, by interacting with people we don't know - so in a sense, we're more actively social on Mastodon than we would be normally. Also, the local timeline is a great way to find like-minded people to interact with.

I've now been using my experimental productivity system Operation Get Your Shit Together for about a week and a half, and so far it seems to work. I posted an update on the web page I created for the project - feel free to check it out and perhaps even post a comment, if it interests you: www.OperationGYST.com.

An undeniable advantage of practicing Shorinji Kempo is that now that I have my black belt, I'm allowed to dress like a GOD DAMN JEDI MASTER.

I just checked out tildes.net (on the suggestion from someone here, I think?), and wow - I'm impressed. In short, it's an open source Reddit alternative that, to me, seems to do a lot of things better than Reddit.

It's still invite-only for now, but I was able to request and get an invite pretty quickly.

Setting up and starting to add content to www.OperationGYST.com was way more fun than I was expecting it to be. Still needs more content and images though.

My #OperationGetYourShitTogether website is now live at www.OperationGYST.com. It's very barebones at the moment, it needs a lot more content and some images, but it's a start. If you're interested in productivity systems and self improvement, feel free to read what little there is, and comment on it. Thanks!

I've now started building the website to go with #OperationGettingMyShitTogether, but there's not enough content to really make it public yet.

I'm considering launching a website about this, where I post updates on how well (or not) I do, to keep myself accountable, and perhaps inspire someone else to do something similar.

#OperationGettingMyShitTogether

This way, I start small with routines I know I can maintain, so I won't feel like I've failed. Then, once those habits are established, I can safely add one more habit to each routine.

Eventually, if I do this right, an evening routine might look like:

1. Meditate for 10 min
2. Read something worthwhile for 20 minutes
3. Prepare for next day (pack bag for work, etc)
4. Brush teeth and floss
5. Go to bed on time

Therefore, I start with just two routines - a morning routine, and an evening routine. Each routine will initially consist of just one habit each - "get up on time", and "go to bed on time", respectively. Once I've successfully completed such a routine 20 days in a row, I've earned the right to add one more habit to that routine.

So, today I start #OperationGettingMyShitTogether.

The idea is to improve myself by creating useful, maintainable habits (such as "read something worthwhile every night" or "go to sleep on time every night"). I mean to do this by establishing habit routines that I go through at specific points in the day.

The key to success is to start small, to avoid getting overloaded and just dropping the whole thing in a few days.

Tomorrow will be the start of #OperationGetMyShitTogether.

@Shufei Hello there! Is that Chinese or Japanese in your profile? What does it mean?

I gotta say, our dog is pretty cute.

When I hold his frisbee, my dog would follow me through the gates of hell.
