I learned today that I can do well if I'm highly caffeinated. I was on point during a conversation I had with Lance and I think I represented myself well. We had an interesting conversation about ways to design a new type of needle that can draw a greater volume of liquid from a tumor microenvironment that is chock-full of EVs. He's going to add me to the letter of intent for the proposal that is due later this month.
I learned that (really, last week) that my bass chops are still good. I played damn well last week and I'm still feeling it.
In year 39, I must recommit myself to my research work. I need to pare down my obligations in projects I'm not interested in or that are not yielding anything tangible. The greatest portion of my energy needs to go into my group members: Shrishti, Sajad, Amit, and Joshua. At the same time, I must get ready for the DNA nanoswimmers project to begin. I've got a lot on my plate.
I need to be organized. I need to be dedicated. I've learned that I must, must, must force myself to finish things.
Ira Glass said, "Put yourself on a deadline so that every week you finish one story." What is going to be my finished product every week?
