Reading:

I read more of "The Art of Learning".  The author talks about how to create your own ideal mental state for competition.  Fascinating stuff.

Notes:

Didn't get 280x3x5 today, I will attempt this again on Thursday.  RLESS progress is going well though.

I listened to an Outside Online podcast today called the "Everest Effect".  It was okay.  I enjoyed the content and the stories, but didn't like how the host got preachy at the end.  I find it can rub me the wrong way pretty easily when hosts conclude shows by making sloppy connections to anecdotally observed societal traits.  I think there is a time and place for wrapping up a story with a moral, it doesn't need to be shoved down our throats after every 30 min podcast.
