Peeking into my super secret and personal electronic inbox, as of about 1 hour ago, it looks like I have 25 unread emails, and have sent out 0 emails so far today. I've received a piddling 30 earnest missives since midnight. |

In the last 14 days, I've posted 26 posts and photos. Mostly to Twitter, Flickr, Foursquare |
Since I started writing online in October of 1999, about 12.62 years ago, I've posted 26,269 bits of nonsense. Yeah. And the problem is only getting worse. |

About me
I live in Seattle. I am married to the amazing Kellianne and am the father of little Niko. I am building a new company around Health Month which helps people live healthier for fun. I have a few side projects, like Locavore (recently sold) and 750 Words. I used to be Buster McLeod, and before that I was Erik Benson. I previously co-founded the The Robot Co-op as well as the now sleeping McLeod Residence. I self-published a book called Man Versus Himself. I have otherwise been occupied on this planet for about 35.97 years.
Three of my favorite projects
8:36pm
For the last 1,456 days, at 8:36pm, I have taken a picture of what I'm doing. It's sort of a weird obsessive photo project that I plan to do for the rest of my life. You should do it too, it's fun. (here are some other people who are doing this) About about 11 hours ago, I said, "8:36pm Waiting for Kellianne to put Niko to sleep so we can watch the new New Girl" |
Health Month
Health Month is a simple game that lets you choose your own health-improvement challenge to play with friends for a month. |
750 Words
750words.com is simple website that gives you a way to write 3-pages privately every day, and learn about yourself in the process. |
A few rules that I try to live by
1. You must not dilly-dally.
2. You must be your word.
3. You must have good intentions.
4. You must admit to being the maker of meaning.
5. You must not feel sorry for yourself.
6. You must have a vision that you are striving for.
7. You must tie creativity and experimentation with survival.
8. You must be the change you want to see.
9. You must rally others with your vision.
10. You must stake your reputation on your better self.
11. You must be comfortable with the consequences of being who you are.
12. You must share.
13. You must make your own advice and take it.
14. You must manage your stress, health, and clarity.
15. You must study your mistakes.
16. You must retry things you don't like every once in a while.
17. You must make time to enjoy things.

@RickWebb So then what are you going to do about your self-diagnosed attitude problem?

@ehekler It's like saying "Space travel fails not because of physics, but because our space ships are poor."
9:21am from TwitterTweet at 9:21am
@ehekler Calling all programs poor is misleading since the best programs of today still fail. But yes, we must continue to try to do better.

One possible explanation for why behavior change is so difficult is that it often requires also changing your identity. /cc @kendramarkle
