November 12 — Sweet deal on Ai, Oracle founder’s life, how I work out, show and tell

High reps, low reps?

I’ve been working a lot more on low-rep, heavy-weight strength training. I enjoy this because I can exhaust my muscles in a much shorter time, getting in more frequent workouts without major time commitment throughout the week. I’m hitting legs a lot more than upper body these days in prep for ski season.

What does your workout routine look like?

 

Larry Ellison biographic podcast

I’m loving David Senra’s Founders podcast. This episode dove deep into Larry Ellison’s life, mostly according to the book Softwar by Matthew Symonds. Senra is an engaging storyteller, down to earth, real talk about founders. He describes Ellison in a way that makes me wish I knew him and could hang out with him. If hearing an entrepreneur’s journey sounds interesting to you – the struggles, the challenges, the drive, the wins, the people who made the difference in their lives, the determination – then this episode is for you.

 

Show and Tell

Are you smarter than a kindergartner? My son is in Pre-K and has to take something from home to school each week and show it to the class. Each item must fit into a gallon-sized bag, and before revealing it, he gives three clues to the class to try and guess what it is.

  1. You see two teeth when the mouth is closed.
  2. It’s big.
  3. It’s an animal.
