Entertain Experiments
Sunday, April 13, 2025
Give me an efficient routine, and I’ll make a ritual out of it. I love me some routine.
My swimming bag is a fine-tuned jigsaw of items, from the pocket the underwear goes (learned the hard way), to my flat hair comb and shaving kit. And this modus operandi tends to repeat throughout the 1000 minutes I’m usually awake each day.
But every couple of cycles, I’ll get an idea to improve something, meaning change. Immediately my reptilian brain will try to stop me. Because it’s statistically right. Most of the times the experiment fails. See underwater pocket above.
Still, those few times it succeeds, it feels great. The micro-evolution I’m acting out polishes even more the routine. Removing a friction I never felt bothered me, but oh-boy it now does.
So I wack the lizard brain with an entertain experiments mental mumbling when needed. It helps me keep things fresh.
