Seth Godin recommends in Tools of Titans to keep track of good things – because what we track changes our perception. And this was what I was doing. Every day throughout the whole week I wrote down all the moments when I’ve done something better than usual, helped someone or was helped, stayed calm in … Continue reading
5 productivity hacks beyond the obvious (presentation for Life Hackers Singapore)
Earlier this week we had first meetup of Life Hackers Singapore group. I founded the group as part of the care-bear-stare experiment from early July, hoping to build a community of people with interest to improve themselves and share the knowledge and experiment together. The meetup group only has 45 members now, and only 9 … Continue reading
I still suck at small-talk, but I found a way how to enjoy meeting new people
[Experiment: Shay Carl – Creating the Care Bear Stare] I had a great “lunch” last Monday. It’s “lunch” in parenthesis because Monday is my fasting day, so I only had (decaf) bulletproof coffee. And it was great because I met like-minded person excited about improving life in any way available. I told him about some … Continue reading
Week 13 – Keeping track of the good things (too)
This week I’m testing the recommendation of Seth Godin. If you don’t recognize his name, it probably means you are not interested in marketing, or the art of “how ideas spread”. He is the Yoda of that industry. He founded a few very successful companies, including one of the first digital marketing agencies. He wrote … Continue reading
Experimenting in zero gravity

These buns are great with just butter and salt, or in various combinations with your favorite fats and proteins. And yes – they work great as hamburger buns too! (and … Continue reading
How I stopped eating for 78 hours (my 3 day fast during Month 1 experiment)
I fasted for 78 hours. It was not for political or religious reasons, this was purely selfish thing I did for my Titan Experiment, as part of the month long experiment with ketogenic diet and fasting. How can fasting be selfish? I did it because I want to live a good long life. In this … Continue reading
Week 12 – Shay Carl and Creating the “Care Bear Stare”
Shay Carl is one of the people I’ve never heard of prior to his appearance in Tim’s podcast. He is part of the world that I know nothing of – YouTube celebrities. Of course I use YouTube – but it’s to watch videos about specific topics like movie reviews, correct way to exercise, Rhonda Patrick’s … Continue reading
Fear-setting experiment: We are afraid of taking action, but what we should really fear is staying in the same place
I’ve done a lot of weird stuff over last few weeks as part of my Titan Experiment journey. I was hashtagging my emotions to learn how to manage them. I learned how to be happier in 10 seconds. I experienced what it would feel like if I would suddenly earn fraction of what I earn … Continue reading
