“Introspection on what you presently spend time doing can shed light onto areas where fulfilling and meaningful activities can be found. Tangentially, work and life do not have to be two separate things. Habits are likely the most important influencer of daily happiness.”

What do you do?
I determine creative and efficient ways to solve interesting problems.
Why?
Ultimately, I am working towards the ability to stop worrying about income for food and shelter so that I can focus entirely on exploring intelligence and the creation of artificial intelligence (strong AI) while developing out a permaculture lifestyle block. I am fascinated by what makes creatures do what they do and think spending my days pondering and researching this facet of life could be very rewarding.
What should we read?
Walden by Henry David Thoreau
