Sunday Edition:
Happy Sunday Friend, 🗓️ The last couple of weeks were crazy with travel getting reestablished at work and home and starting on two new ideas that I’ll share with the group as they get closer to kicking off to the public. Unfortunately, my video plans for the last couple of weeks were dashed, but I will be returning this week. So what do I write about now? Well, one of the two ideas that I am working on is starting a small community outreach for disadvantaged kids in Washington, DC. 🔬My lovely wife asked me to help with some activities, and I have thought about doing this for years! So, what better time than the present to start a STEM-focused program for kids and teenagers to learn about science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. 🎒My goal is to bring the activities to them in afterschool events that are in community spaces that will introduce concepts that are fun and teach kids to someone who grew up in DC, who looks like them, and who choose to make a difference in the world and their community. 📚I was fortunate enough to find what I wanted to do very early in life and work toward it every day growing up, I hope that I can introduce someone to the things that bring them that drive and joy. As more come together with this project, I’ll keep you informed. I will start creating videos again. 📽️I will tell you that I enjoyed the mini-break, but I am excited to get back to producing videos and creating content for you. Until next time, keep creating, keep sharing, and stay inspired. Thanks! -- Cyle H. |

Seasons Greetings! Happy New Year! I hope your 2025 is off to a fantastic start, whether you’re still recovering from last night’s confetti explosion or already drafting your resolutions. Let’s raise a glass (coffee or otherwise) to new beginnings, fresh ideas, and maybe some less questionable karaoke decisions this year. If you’ve been wondering where this newsletter wandered off to, you’re not alone. It’s been hibernating—but unlike the snacks I ate during the break, it’s not gone for good....
Hey Friend! Just got back from a fantastic week floating along the Northeastern coast of the USA and Canada, I had a great time thinking about all the things I want to do with the YouTube channel, the newsletter, and a few other ideas I have coming down the pipe. I will be releasing the video tomorrow, the video is about Tiago Forte’s PARA method. Here are the important notes that I took away and will share in the video. 🌟 Uncluttering Life with PARA! 🌟 Feeling swamped amidst a sea of digital...
Happy Sunday, Friend! This week's video is about Eli Goldratt's Critical Chain an interesting book that details the importance of work processes from start to finish. The Power of a Single Buffer Traditional project management often finds us padding each task with extra time “just in case.” However, this can lead to procrastination as we mistakenly think we have more time. Goldratt’s approach? Have one cumulative buffer at the project’s end. This strategy deals with unexpected delays more...
