 ## Now
 
-September and October have been quite interesting. I mostly worked on learning about AI Safety/Research, getting my laptop fixed, exams (and recuperating from it), and making better habits. I also posted a few blogs and videos, and went halfway through the Oxford General Philosophy [Course](https://github.com/moiSentineL/oxford-general-philosophy-2009)
+After my exams ended in November, I fell in a deep productivity rut. [It wasn't nice](https://visionoflife.substack.com/p/being-stuck-in-a-rut-is-not-fine). I am back at square one, but I have one advantage: more experience than my previous self, and I think that will help me become a better human (something like the game Hades.)
 
-And, I will mainly focus on getting done with my half-yearly exams (a lot of credit is on stake), and improving my Financial Literacy and marketing skills; something that I have been wanting to do since a long time. I am also planning to do some hobby projects like making some app, improving my guitar skills and making a [podcast](https://run.nibirsan.org/podcast).
+So, I have been [trying to improve my focus](https://fatebook.io/q/will-i-reach-20h-deep-work-week-by-the--cm4qqi21l0000fm0rdho6fvgr) and getting back my curiosity. Scholzian Resilience helps a lot. I am also waking up a bit early these days, and trying to sleep early (the latter is hard, given my workaholism). I am also doing study-with-me livestreams on my [YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/@nibirsankar) (at 2pm IST and 7pm IST. Do join!) to be more accountable for my actions. 
 
-Meditation streak: 97 days, as of writing this. Made a habit of reading before bed and going through Anki after meals. Also committing myself to a Reading Day every month, where I read (and finish) a book all day.
+I had to leave the philosophy [course](https://github.com/moiSentineL/oxford-general-philosophy-2009) I was doing because I couldn't make time for it, and there was very little reading material. So, I couldn't follow after a certain point. But thankfully I found a [course on Mathematical Thinking](https://www.coursera.org/learn/mathematical-thinking/) (as of writing this, I am on Week 1). I am especially enjoying the abstract-ness of mathematics. Formal Logic feels like a bridge between philosophy and math, and boy I am liking it! (mathematical masochism). 
 
-Lately, I have been obsessed with coffee, pencils and music for no reason. 
+If you're interested in math, and or philosophy, I would love to have a chat with you. Please [reach out](#okay%2C-you-seem-cool-enough%2C-where-can-i-reach-you%3F)!
