This is not something I do in a very structured way, but I've always been interested in optimizing my performance and health. To be honest, I sort of assumed most people in tech are similar in this tendency, although when verbalized I realize that's very presumptuous of me.
Striving for higher performance and longevity physically and mentally, especially in work-related aspects, tends to be my default state and I find the idea of optimizing myself very interesting. However, I have not managed to find a good balance between that and just relaxing; that default state of self-optimization comes at a detriment to my peace and wellbeing. Over the years I've realized that this is not sustainable, but I can't manage to stop. I would be very interested in taking part in such a community, and hopefully learning more about both performance optimization tactics as well as how to let myself switch off and stop churning.
- kevin_vanilla 4y ago(Apologies for missing this comment!) That's great! Although I'm focused on creating "intensity" with everything, I think a big part of that will be figuring out what it means for situations where slowing down is the right thing to do. What does "intensity" look like when I'm hanging out with my daughter, or recharging after a long week? Probably something like putting away any distractions and being wholly focused on whatever we are doing :) > I would be very interested in taking part in such a community, If you're still interested, what would be the best way to contact you to chat more?
