Yes, I’m posting again — mainly to add a touch of humor.
As some of you now know, I’ve just begun an attempt to break a world record.
What exactly it is… I’m still not saying. But I will note that it’s being done with joy, intention, and the kind of quiet focus usually reserved for assembling IKEA furniture without the manual.
Context: Philosophy (with a capital “P”)
Over the past few months, I’ve been developing an entirely new philosophy — one that I’d modestly describe as a modern-day rival to Stoicism and Epicureanism.
(And in many ways, it’s designed to be better.)
But here’s the catch:
You don’t get a Guinness World Record for “beating Epicurus.”
You don’t get one for “being smarter than Marcus Aurelius.”
You don’t get one for “being more grounded in logic than Socrates.”

So one has to do things.
Visible things.
Hence… this.
Thank You, Qwykr
Many thanks to Qwykr, my “other” company, which has a Secrecy Oriented System™ that — as always — delivered.
Secrecy has always been a key design consideration in any project. I highly doubt anyone would have guessed I was trying for a world record if I hadn’t posted about it.
(To be fair, even now, you probably still don’t know what it is. That’s by design.)
And Finally...
I believe in working hard to be happy —
and I will work hard to be happy, even if it kills me in the process. 🙂
