Git Your GYG ... to work on your own GYG, you must work harder ON your own GYG

Git Your GYG Excercises

Try to improve your discipline as much as you can on each of these twelve exercises every day. We approach these exercises as if they were a training session in which we are coaching ourselves to get better. We train with intention now in order to train better in our next training sesssion because time unfolds in our lives to give us a training regimen that is recursive, ie, the point the discipline is working on the discipline of making the discipline better.

  1. Manage your own time; avoid wage slavery; if you need $, then get throwaway jobs; try microwerk, such FiveRR; freelance then graduate to StartUpCookbook.US

  2. Disrupt dysfunctional affluent cultures which encourage fear and predation -- minimalize consumption, distribute sharing, extend open source and independence

  3. Stop hanging with people who are stuck in the rear-view mirror; listen better, flexibilize your mind, be antifragile; let the dead bury their dead

  4. Live meditatively; return your focuse the NOW, using each second of the 86400 second day with disciplined intention, making the discipline better

  5. Be more curious about ordinary systems which your life depends upon, eg immune system, cooking/food distribution, gardening, utilities, banks/taxes/regs

  6. Write/edit/revise/re-write more every single day; question unquestioned assumptions to be funnier and thought-provoking for your future self

  7. Improve your self-defense, be tougher, less addicted, less fragile ... train in the martial arts hourly, especially flexibilty drills and escaping

  8. Dogfood your life by improving the automation and AI to ensure your workflow toolchain is simpler and more effective, then sell your dogfooding

  9. Avoid cold calling, begging or asking for a job; make your attractive skills contactable with link pages so that someone can email/DM/calendly you

  10. Stop watching tv, sports, netflix, youtube; go for walks -- THINK ... smartify your investment by programming your mind with your RSS newsreader

  11. Improve your ideation and fulfillment discipline; entertain yourself by brainstorming ideas from scrolling; categorize ideas into A, B, C, D bins

  12. Study how skill economies work; develop intell gathering on talent acquisitions ops; analyze knowledge graph from Owler, LinkedIn, Indeed, et al

GYG Flow -- Git more flow out of GIT

  1. Fork Git repositories; dogfood them for your own use; extend them for social development.

  2. Understand and use the best practices of using pull requests; develop the culture of sharing

  3. Initiate implementation with an issue-driven development process

  4. Use ReadTheDocs to document your Pythonic applications as you build them

  5. Use/extend Copilot and other AI tools to helpfully suggest code/writing; then extend the AI

  6. Use Codespaces and Jupyter Notebooks to practice literate coding and collaboration

  7. Use a CI/CD process with GitHub Actions and other automation that improves development quality

  8. Write better commit messages, for your own sanity and your own dev discipline; try to use Conventional Commits

  9. Change/improve your the fork; add the hard things that you wish someone would add in order to make it your own
