as a thinker | writer | learner | maker

(for 12 April 2026)

Created THIS WEEK:
  • 📖 Is it a leap or a step? → latest post!
  • 🚀 Listed my coaching services on TradeMe! (read the latest post above for a partial slice of what got me here)
  • STICKY: The Won’t Do List → something you should try yourself
  • draft pitch for a “Personal Thinking Partner” offer to trial
  • customer feedback proposal for Kiwibank’s Startup+ partnership
CONSUMED this week:
  • Good Fortune (movie) — a kick-in-the-butt reminder to have a caring, abundance mentality
  • Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (book) → I’m now onto the 4th in the series since starting in January! (actually impressed with myself haha)
  • Hogwarts Legacy (game) — to go with the books 😉
  • Matrix and Matrix Reloaded (movie) — learning something new every time I rewatch them
  • Thinking, Fast and Slow (book)
  • Inside Mercedes F1 (book)
  • Rogue Heroes (game) with my wife — she loves it and I love it because it’s the only proper video game we play together
  • Outer Wilds (game) — I’ve almost completed it, but needed a rest
And Did THIS WEEK:
  • dinner, billiards, and darts with my niece — I want more of these nights
  • asking bold and vulnerable questions of my friends, like if there are specific people in their network they’d recommend me to as a coach/mentor — I’m not going to sit on this dream any longer
  • refixing NZ home loans and requesting a US tax extension for my life abroad — fun fun
  • Korean & Chess lessons on Duolingo [expect to see this for a long while]
