    • Health Rules

      • A living set of personal rules for protecting energy, sleep, and overall well-being. Improve incrementally — add a new bullet whenever a friction point shows up.
    • Sleep & evenings

      • No gaming after 6PM on weeknights. Late-night sessions always extend longer than planned and break sleep. Restrict gaming to morning / early afternoon, or weekends.
      • Sleep > productivity. A “lost” hour of sleep typically costs more than the hour it appears to save.
    • Illness

      • Treat illness as a hard stop, not a soft pause. If feeling off two days in a row → full stop on day 2. Don’t push to day 3 hoping it improves.
      • Recovery cost compounds: a few days of forced rest is cheaper than a week of dragging through.
    • Movement & environment

      • Walking / nature / no-signal time are real resets — schedule them deliberately, not only when sick.
      • 3x short night jogs per week (post-work, lower-temp window). Morning slots conflict with deep work and high temperature; evening cools down and decompresses the day. Added W18 after the Sat May 3 badminton breathlessness signal.
      • Eat before exercise. No empty-stomach badminton or jogging — Sat May 3 session degraded fast because no food since morning.
    • Weekend discipline

      • Default to one full off-day per weekend — no Smartclass commits, no Holistics work. Two consecutive non-rest weekends is a yellow flag.
      • When the weekend is booked for deep work (e.g., H1 self-reflection + CV refresh), keep at least the Saturday morning slow.
    • Notes

      • Re-read this page during weekly planning (Friday wrap-up) and after any sick day or low-energy week.
      • When a rule causes friction in practice, capture the friction here as a new bullet, then iterate.

  • Process

    • Start with definitions logseq.order-list-type:: number
      • Goal: Avoid 3 versions of MRR floating around everyone.
      • Sit with stakeholders (finance, rev ops, product) and nail down the definitions.
      • Common pitfalls:
        • (1) Entity Resolution issue:
          • Zoho Billing is the source of truth for Finance (MRR/Revenue). Salespeople often enter aspirational data in Hubspot (deal size $10k), but the actual invoice might be $9k due to a last-minute discount.
          • Hubspot is the source of truth for Dimensions. Zoho knows how much they paid, but Hubspot knows who they are (company, lead, customer/prospect)
          • Application DB is the source of truth for Engagement. This is the leading indicator of churn.
        • (2) Reconciliation issue:
          • Finance likely has a spreadsheet they use to report numbers to the board. If your SQL logic differs even by $10 from their manual sheet, they will trust the sheet, not your dashboard.
          • You must replicate their logic exactly before you can improve it.
          • Means, answer this question: “How can I trust the numbers?”.
      • Deliverables:
        • Metric Glossary: an evergreen documentation defining business terms, processes, metrics
        • ERD shows how a Company in Hubspot maps to a Customer in Zoho and a Tenant in the app

  • Keynote

    • Approach: top-down
    • The philosophy is having a centralized, high quality data warehouse
      • By maintaining an EDW - Enterprise Data Warehouse, storing all data as 3NF, aim for data quality and intergrity
      • Then so the star schema - dimensional modelling for each specific reporting topic (dataset)
    • 2-step process
        1. You model the data warehouse using 3NF to ensure truth, quality and consistency
        1. Then feed that data into data marts which use dimensional modeling for the actual BI reporting to consume
