This morning, as I started putting on my shoes to go for a run, my grandfather exclaimed "You've got to teach online in 25minutes!" 😱
"Yeah, I'm just going for a whizz round the block." 😎
"What on earth is the point in that??" 🤨 he responded.
-
I would be less fit if I never went for a run unless I had time to warm up, run 5k and stretch. I would be weaker if I only lifted weights when I had 1.5hrs for a full balls-to-the-wall session 🏋🏻♂️

Sure, some people can routinely make time for high intensity, high volume exercise.
Some people love making that the centrepiece of their day.
Some are both and content with fitness being a focal point of their life 👍🏽 but, contrary to what the instagram fitness world will lead you to believe, that's really fucking rare.

Way too may of us seem to think the goal is to "get fit". I can almost guarantee it shouldn't be for most. Not by whatever arbitrary definition of it you're using. You just need to get fit-ter 📈
-
A friend of mine the other day said "I can't go to the gym without a PT because if I go on my own I just get in a 60% workout and it's a waste of my time." 🤦🏻♂️
HOW have we been convinced that exercise at 60% is a waste of time? I’ll bet most “waste” more time daily scrolling 📱
-
Side note: If you think a PT's “job” is to run your arse into the ground at 100%, I can almost guarantee you've got a mediocre one 💁🏻♂️
-
Equally, it doesn't have to take a lot of your day ⏱ I consulted a couple the other day who have been "meaning to get fit" for a while. They already had a few machines, but seemed to think 15mins on them 3 times a week was pointless. No. What's pointless is having machines you never use.
-
🙏🏽 Please, just start by doing SOMETHING. Something you enjoy, that doesn't feel unpleasantly or unsustainably intense / difficult, and then do it for as long as is convenient. Once it's a habit, start trying to give it a bit more effort, and making a bit more time for it. I know we say to have goals in fitness and business and life but, for some, maybe it's the goal that has been getting in the way? Maybe it's the goal that's so daunting that you don't do ANYTHING to get yourself closer to it? 🧐

【Lesson #6 - Focus on leveraging strengths, not improving weaknesses】
In the never-ending argument between focusing on maximizing strengths vs improving weaknesses, Chelsea Sim, the former founder and CEO of Botbot.ai, which provides chatbot-based productivity solutions for enterprise, has learned to over index on leveraging strengths, instead of correcting weaknesses. Why? Simply put, the world rewards greatness, and the amount of time it takes you to get a skill from bad to good is likely the same amount of time it takes to get a skill from good to great, except the latter scenario yields 10x dividends.
***
At some point during the early days of Botbot, instead of business development, I somehow found myself spending almost half of my weeks on HR related matters, such as payroll, performance reviews, or 1:1 my employees. So I went out to hire an HR, seeking specifically for someone that could handle both talent development and administration.
After several months of prolonged searching, I ended up settling on a girl that was fantastic at finding candidates and communicating with current and future employees, but often dropped the ball when it came to paperwork and admin functions. Contracts were lost, salaries came out with extra zeros, and paid leave was not accurately calculated. It was a nightmare. While backend, these functions are mission critical, and no founder wants to be brought down by shotty operations. Your team also has a lot less tolerance when it comes to administrative mistakes, especially when they're performing at the speed in which a scaling startup needs to function.
Several performance reviews passed by, and it was clear that she had not demonstrated any notable improvements on the administration front. But this person had also become a critical part of our talent and culture management, extending a bit into marketing based solely on her effective communications alone. So, instead of forcing this person into this arbitrary mold that I created for her, I decided to find someone else to complement her skill sets. Our HR has been split into talent operations and admin and functioning seamlessly ever since.
In an ideal world, we can all focus on improving our weaknesses to make us all more well-rounded individuals. But in startups, it’s a race against time, and as a founder, your sole job is to determine the most optimal allocation of resources to deliver maximum output—but the key is also recognizing that the allocation can and should always change based on new inputs.

Without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half (Lee Yee
Yesterday the Xinhua News Agency ann
unced that the Hong Kong version of national security law would be included on the agenda of the coming meeting of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress. Just a day after, Tam Yiu Chung, a member of the Committee, said he didn’t receive any information about the arrangement. The ridiculous fact that the agenda can be suddenly updated without any advance notice proves again the Committee is nothing more than a rubber stamp. If this can happen to an organization of national level, how can one expect the local officials here in Hong Kong to have any free will?
The aforementioned arrangement is clearly a deliberate delay so as to wait for the outcome of the Hawaii meeting between Yang Jie-chi and Pompeo. Possibly, to avoid severe sanctions from the US, Beijing has tried to trade off with a milder version of the national security law in Hong Kong. As things unfolded, after 7 hours of “constructive” dialogue, the negotiation just broke down. Right after that, the updated agenda was announced and the spokesperson of China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs reiterated, “China’s determination to push for a national security law in Hong Kong is unshakeable.”
Obviously, the Legislative Council (LegCo) election in September is the reason why Beijing is rushing the Hong Kong version national security law through. Tsang Kwok-wai, the Secretary for Hong Kong’s Constitutional and Mainland Affairs, publicly stated that those who are against the national security law are putting their loyalty to the People’s Republic of China to suspicion. This in fact provides a ready-made excuse to disqualify candidates in the coming election. In view of this, all pro-democracy candidates will have to face a very difficult dilemma: be expressive of their standpoint about the national security law and get disqualified, or go against their will, support it and get casted aside by their supporters.
The Hong Kong version of national security law is simply against common sense. Recently, Cheng Yeuk-wah, Hong Kong’s Secretary for Justice, stated that it is “unreasonable and unrealistic” to expect the law to be implemented in accordance to the principles of the common law, and the addition of a sunset clause to it is something “unnecessary”. Such saying is clearly a violation of the Basic Law, which outlines that Hong Kong maintains the common law system. What’s more, it is inappropriate to put the Hong Kong version of national security law in Annex III, which is made for national laws only. From a more practical point of view, It is scary for the general public to a see such happenings as the arbitrary implementation of the law, direct enforcement of it by mainland officials and the possible trials by courts in China.
All these are evidence that the protection of the Basic Law no longer exists. The sad reality is that the people of Hong Kong can only choose to emigrate, or stay but live without freedom. With the threat of the national security law and extensive disqualification, the prospect of the pro-democracy camp in the upcoming election is extremely gloomy, and the chance to have them dominating the Legislative Coumcil has virtually vanished.
On the other hand, it is worth noticing that on online forums popular among the young, the majority tends to support the implementation of the national security law, oppose the bargaining approach of the legal circle and pro-democracy camp, and prefer harsh American sanctions. But make no mistake, the young are no supporters of the legislation. They are rather diehard fans of the “mutual destruction” proposition.
The current situation just reminds me of a scene in a movie from the 80s called “Out of Africa”. While confronting a pride of lions, the hero suggests that the heroine should not run, because the gesture will just invite the beasts to pounce against her. Instead, if one doesn’t flinch, it eases the danger. And soon the lions go away.
As Churchill once said: “One ought never to turn one's back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half.”
