Turning GNOME Into a Tiling Window Manager
I’ve made it rather well-known that I’m a big fan of the Awesome window manager on Linux. I still use it regularly on my Arch system, but what about my Fedora workstation? While I do have Awesome installed on Fedora, I’ve found myself using it less and less. It has nothing to do with my…

8 Great Lessons from The Bullet Journal Method
Welcome back to the Sudo Science Book Club! In this series of posts, I take a deep dive into books that resonated with me and simultaneously break down what I’ve learned and implemented from them. For the previous two posts from this now growing series, take a look at when I joined the 5 AM…

New Year, New Second Brain?
A new year is at hand! As the autumn ended and the winter arrived, I’ve continued using my three biggest productivity tools in tandem with one another: my bullet journal, second brain, and pocket notebook (which I will refer to here as a memo book to distinguish it from a “full-sized” notebook). Still, when I…

How I Started Building A Second Brain
Welcome back to the Sudo Science Book Club! In this series of posts, I take a closer look at noteworthy books (usually self-improvement) and break down what I’ve learned and implemented from them.

Why I Stopped Using My Second Brain (and What I Did to Fix It)
I haven’t been updating as much as I normally would have, but I can assure I’m not dead, thankfully. Rather, I’ve only been busy with a few other obligations as of late, and those have eaten up my time I would otherwise use for writing here. But despite my recent attempts at time blocking, I…

I Started Time Blocking With Minimal Effort

How (and Why) I Carry a Pocket Notebook WITH My Bullet Journal
Ever since I start to bullet journal regularly with an A5-sized (read: the “standard” size) notebook for a bullet journal, I had switched away from pocket-sized notebooks I used to use for my to-dos and other reminders. As anyone can guess, the major difference between my pre and post-bullet journal notebooks includes how much easier…

A Quick Update on the 5 AM Club
This is yet another quick update, as I have been busy with a few things as of late. It also doesn’t help that I got sick with the common cold for the first time in a while. As a result, this is going to be more of an off-the-cuff update. Specifically, I’m going to talk…

I Tried Joining the 5 AM Club this Past Week.
Welcome to the Sudo Science Book Club! I’m not sure if I’m going to make this a regular thing or not, but I do like the idea. We’ll see how this goes first. I finished reading The 5 AM Club by Robin Sharma just a few weeks ago and think I got much more out…

I Used an Android “Dumbphone” for 7 Days. Here’s How It Went.
Here it is: the follow-up to my previous blog post detailing how I would try to make my full switch to the Android-powered Xiaomi Qin F22 Pro, a quasi-smartphone in a “dumbphone” form factor, for 7 straight days. How did everything go? Day 0 Wait, Day 0? Does this mean I actually went above and…
