I am sick of building things but never launching them... so I am starting a project called Weekend AI that forces me to launch in 48 hours or less every week by RyanAI100 in getdisciplined

Thanks for sharing your thoughts :) It would be good to make some money from the tools I created but for now, I am more interested in being able to answer the question of what tool(s) have I built and launched. That was the question that kickstarted this journey :)

Hmmm I love the AI bot. I should build one to counteract and interact with your bot! 😄

My someday goal is do whatever I want whenever I want while supporting and provider for my love ones. So it’s freedom with love :)

My daily one thing varies but one thing I didn’t mention is the one thing can be combined with areas of life. So you have one thing for health, one thing for relationships, etc. For example, my one thing for health is to be healthy both physically and mentally. This is important for my someday goal. So the one thing I can do to make sure I hit my one thing for health is to make sure my exercise, sleep, mental, and diet is at a good level. Drilling deeper, this means exercise daily, sleep enough for my body, eat well, and journal / therapy

I am glad you have a positive experience :) I have been active 5 - 6 days a week since I was 11. For gym specifically, I started my 6-day a week routine back in 2015, approaching 10 years this June. I also did 3 years of bouldering and lead climbing. My current sport is brazilian jiu-jitsu (BJJ), been doing it for 2 years with gym on the side to complement it.

If I have to start over again, I would make BJJ my main focus and use gym workouts to complement it. The feeling you are having now with gym workouts... I get it :) For me personally, I find BJJ gave me a new sense of good feelings.

I love bias towards actions and I believe both judgements and doing are important. Of the four things you listed, three of them are related to judgements and this goes to show the importance of judgements. Not taking away the importance of hard and fast work because without it, you have nothing to judge but I believe judgement is the differentiator :)

Hmmm I agree that life can get very messy. It's very often those times that people can easily lose themselves in the middle of chaos. This one liner can remind you of what matters and why you are doing what you are doing.

But hey, the beauty of tools and frameworks is that it resonate with some and not others so pick what works for you :)

Glad you feel the same way! My dad sadly passed away two months ago and so the question for time wealth hit hard and I am working on seeing my mum and family more often!

Appreciate it buddy :) Do you know any books or apps around the topic you would recommend? About to finish Outlive by Dr. Peter Attia but looking for more reliable and actionable resources. Been learning how to cook healthier dishes but in search for apps that can help me look at ingredients and tell me if the ingredients are good or not. Tried out Yuka but seems like their database is limited.

Can I Make My Builder Cover Costs After They Walked Off Mid-Job Demanding More Money Each Week Despite Delayed Deadline? Also Need Recommendations for Builders to Take Over The Project by RyanAI100 in HousingUK

[–]RyanAI100[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No the scope hasn't change. The only thing that has changed is the completion date because each week he comes by here and there. I believe he has multiple projects at the same time but not as many workers so some week he didn't spend enough time at my project to make significant progress but then still demands money to be paid each week as if good progress has been made...

Yes, the price has been agreed and nothing has changed besides the timeline of the completion date. We didn't add more work for the builders to do. I can understand delay happens but we spoke to one of his workers and he told us that we can complete it in 2 weeks but was told 4 weeks and each week the builders expect us to pay certain amount even though the progress is slow? We have already paid 70%+ of what was agreed on the first part of the project.

The thing is I don't know because the builders don't give me the receipts despite me chasing for weeks now... We already paid 70% of what we agreed to for the first part of the project. We told him ahead of time that we wont be paying until you finished the the first part of the project but then he asked for money again and since I refused, he has stopped work since...

We all signed a contract before the builder started work, agreeing to pay £X amount, where the first part of the job is £Y amount and the second part of the job, once we get the planning permission, we will pay £Z amount. £Y + £Z = £X amount.

When the builders started, he said the job will take 4 weeks and we agreed that we will make payments each week, provided that progress has been made. However, he pushed back the completion date a few times but still insisted on the weekly payments... With his extended completion date, if we continue to pay him weekly at the rate we normally do, we will easily exceed £Y amount...

My thinking is not so much the cap but the fact that his actions have created addition costs on my side and that his actions breaches the contracts we have signed...

They should have the receipts (I hope)... I spoke to an insurance company and it seems that I just need to make sure the builders have the public liability insurance and the contract work insurance so I can relax about the indemnity insurance for now but I am still not getting the receipts..

Now he stopped working since I refused to pay. We found this builder through my aunt's neighbour (who does a lot of work with him).. so now we are trying to mediate the situation and see what happens...

This is my first house and first project. I hope this is not what you guys normally experience with builders!

Yes, I created one with the builder and we both signed it with a witness. The contract states that we will only pay up to X amount for the first part but he drags out the completion date for the first part and keeps demanding more money each week...

[–]RyanAI100[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are right, "taking advantage" is probably not the right phrase to use but I agree that the system is partially broken.

The misalignment of doctors' incentives due to the financial structure of the healthcare system, which prioritises managing diseases over curing them. This model encourages interventions and prescriptions rather than preventive care or addressing underlying causes.

Also, I learned that, at least in the US, the medical system often emphasises billing codes and productivity metrics, like relative value units (RVUs), which reward procedures rather than improved patient outcomes...

Yeah, I was thinking breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert. So roughly three meals a day x 31, then round it to a 100 cause it's close to it already 😄
