Looking to connect with students across architecture, engineering, software/robotics/AI, material sciences, social sciences, urban ag with an interest in affordable/sustainable housing.
We’re currently conducting feasibility studies for 2 neighbourhood revival projects located in Sydney. We want to bring together a diverse group of students across disciplines to create real-world solutions.
DM if interested.
Yes, stay away from brokered deals if you can.
If you’re looking at buying smaller businesses, initiate discussion directly with owners. And preferably when they’re off-market.
I would go back in time, befriend Jeff and happily give him all the early stage seed money he needs.

Go in as a prospective customer and start a conversation with the owner.
👆🏻 Yep… seen this happen. Take note.
Carrd… quick and easy for simple 1 pagers. And good value too.

We are also exploring how permaculture principles can be incorporated into the projects.
Any local permies interested in getting involved?
Start with the basics, body weight training. You’ll be surprised with how many levels you can progress through building muscle before you need weights.
Do the body weight basics; pull-ups, pushups, hanging leg raises, jump squats, calve raises, pistol squats, pike shoulder presses.
Get outside and do some jogging and short explosive sprints.
Body should always be moving from day one. Body weight only required. You can safely try doing all the basic body weight exercises from any age (push ups, pull ups, hangs, squats, lunges etc.)
What’s your mode of transport to work? Can you walk/run to work? Or atleast a portion of the distance?
Use stairs instead of elevator (both up and down).
Turn lunchtime into a workout out in a park if possible.
See if there are any outdoor fitness groups at lunch time in your area or form one on meetup.
Take breaks to do pushups on the floor at your desk throughout the day … yes, people around you will think you’re crazy.
Ditch the office chair for a Swiss ball to strengthen the core and lower back and for stability while working instead of slouching.
Screw work … your health is more important and you should prioritise it over work. Block out regular times during the week for routine workout sessions. Make it first thing in the morning and then get to work. You will feel a whole lot better and fresh throughout the day knowing that you’ve done the real work first.
For a beginner who is struggling and their heart rate is up, it can be.
For someone more advanced who can just breathe and settle into the heat, no.
Yes, barefoot on pavement and on grass. Just try avoid hitting toes with rope at high speeds.
Spend more time just walking outdoors barefoot on different terrain.
Also maybe start with a barefoot walk before you run to warm up and gradually build up to your desired pace.
Yes. I used to shave them off with an old razor but got lazy.
I then found that if I just left them, the skin sorts itself out over time and the right amount of skin padding forms in the right places where foot contacts to ground.
Never. Only time I put on shoes is when I’m cycling due to metal spike grip on pedals. Rest of day running/walking barefoot.
Make it a habit of walking as much as you can daily barefoot and on different terrain. Down side… afters while you won’t feel comfortable in shoes anymore.
All the more reason to be working out outdoors in the parks and on the beach.
Yes, stay away from brokered deals if you can.

Did you buy an existing business?
