Re-Acquainting Myself With Being A Visionary
Between late night binges playing Phasmophobia, I’ve been doing a lot of “future work” lately. Thinking about Novatorius, Siren, and what it all means. How does it all connect to my beliefs, and my life, and what’s the purpose of all of it.

Work Life Balance Is A Lie.
Work-life balance is a trap. It frames work and life as opponents in an unwinnable war. Seek harmony instead. Let work flow with life’s rhythms, not against them.

Today so many of my messages with Claude resulted in it saying “would you like me to do x?”
To which I respond with “yes, please do x”
Then it gives me a bullet point list of things it will do, and says “would you like me to do x?”
Repeatedly, and now I hit my Claude limit from wasted messages. Annoying.

PHPNomad As An MVC Framework
So PHPNomad can run as an MVC framework now. That’s neat. I needed a way to make Siren run outside of WordPress. After careful consideration, I decided the best route to take was to set up the last couple of packages needed to just make PHPNomad capable of running as its own MVC framework. I […]

This prompt yielded some really solid copy for Novatorius’ About Page:
The attached document is a conversation I had with ChatGPT about Novatorius’ website. In this, we talk a little bit about how to create the about page for Novatorius.
Some rules:
You must not refer to this as “mine” or “I”. This is is a “we” and “us” thing. This is a business I run, but it’s not “me”.
This should use the golden circle (Why, How, What)
It should keep the nautical themes minimal. It’s tempting to use them but I think in this context it’ll be tacky.
Avoid saying “status quo”
I really want you focus heavily on what we believe. This page should capture the “about us” mostly through those beliefs. Nearly everything in this page should talk about beliefs, tenants, and values.
I do not want you to mention anything that even remotely suggests what we do. That is not the purpose of this page. This should be all about encapsulating the spirit of what Novatorius is.

Flying my Quantum this morning. Exciting to get the right amount of wind to actually do some fun stuff with it!

Reminiscing back to 2020 when we were spending our first Christmas in the camper. Of all of our setup, there was something so special about the first one.

I’ve been working on the Novatorius brand, and getting a better understanding for just what on earth my business “is”. It’s all been in my head, and feels great to get it all out of my head. I was even able to get a brand and style guide put together! Here’s a little sneak peek.
