S1 E118 — Swiping Your Birthday Is What I Do, So Sue Me

The Tau of Steves: What You Don’t Know Could Fill a Book

This birthday was almost three weeks late for me, but only a week late for Emma the Baroness, so I give her permission to make it her own, since it suits her so well.

Day Twelve of Scorpio Time

Hi and welcome to Friday’s Episode 118 in the first season of ” My 1-Year Natural Experiment” on this 15th day of November in the fall of 2019

“5”  Steve Aoki, 41: The one thing you choose to work on will bring you luck and success in other areas as well.” Sagittarius

Without getting too deeply in the weeds I finally locked down the functionality, the look and the feel of what I wanted in “Know Laboratories: Thriving in an Age of Accelerating Uncertainty”.  I used it as a standard to compare line-by-line settings for each of the remaining five.

If I’d known what I was doing back in March of 2017 when I began rolling out my blogs, I wouldn’t made as many mistakes and forgotten hard won technical insights.  Oh well.

This birthday was almost three weeks late for me, but only a week late for Emma the Baroness, so I give her permission to make it her own, since it suits her so well.

Today’s Holiday Birthday: 

Though you can be proud of your foundational habits and values, you can be even more proud of the fact that you are willing to keep questioning, checking and building them to suit who you are becoming.  This is the work that brings you love, passion, meaning, more and honor this year.

We’re still in the suite spot of our Holiday Tau, but I’m afraid I’ve got little use for this TauBit today.

“2”  Steve Zahn, 51: “If you always did what the group was into, you’d make no impact.  The same would be true if you never did it.  You’ll be on trend today.” Scorpio

Random ones that make me want change my sign.

To make Aoki’s Holiday Tau worth swiping for me today is if I twist it slightly to make it my own while applying it to my problem solving approach to compare each site to the one I locked down with the functionality, the look and the feel I wanted as a standard.

You know there’s a lot of truth to McQueen’s Holiday Tau — the part about just wanting all the rest of the 5 websites to mirror Know Laboratories and be finished sometime in my lifetime.

“4”  Steve McQueen (1930 – 1980): You don’t care who gets credit, you just want the thing done.  Because of this approach, you’ll be effective.  Aries

I’m not so sure I can agree, maybe because I’m in the middle of the conversion and didn’t anticipate it would have taken this long.

“3”  Steve Winwood, 71; Stevie Wonder, 69; Stephen Colbert, 56: The same actions will take on different qualities.  Taxing work becomes exciting opportunities.”  Taurus

Steve, your Holiday Tau had me in the opening line.  Is it discipline or an obsession I’m following?  That doesn’t seem to be my struggle today.

“2”  Steve Smith, 30: When you struggle to maintain the discipline to complete an action, maybe it’s not discipline you really need to look for.  Look for the pleasure instead.”Gemini

Sorry Steve, given your reputation for innovation and dent-the-universe sayings frankly I expected more.

“2”  Steve Jobs, (1955 – 2011): What would you plan for the future if you knew you would drive there much improved?  Consistent movement makes progress inevitable.” Pisces
