tomorrow everything will be seeded and the work begins on saturday.
please please try to ignore everything except for your mind to be fully capable to remember the generation of the pipeline. the most manual part that is strange to you isn't a farce with code. it's the handling of a plate reader, a windows computer linked to it, and the delicate EBs!
saturday is your second and last chance to master that process. be physically and mentally capable and never lose grip at something with that much potential. pay all attention on how everything works on saturday. fill all the gaps after saturday by asking all the remaining necessary questions. review the notes before and afterward.
don't forget to bring the flash drive! the muji notebook and your pen (refill its ink)!
you have one shot. figure out the technical roadmap after you get your data.
the best practice is let nothing block your perception. so that your actions are perfectly mirroring the professional instructions lended by someone with limited time.
the journey will be long, but don't let loose of anything until you get there.
this will be your best ticket. so cherish, don't panick, just focus. block everything else. nothing else matters. only its dependecies - your sleep, physiological + psychological stress, fitness, and food to refill energy - should be of your concern.
"The essential thing 'in heaven and in earth' is, apparently (to repeat it once more), that there should be long OBEDIENCE in the same direction, there thereby results, and has always resulted in the long run, something which has made life worth living." -- beyond good and evil
be obedient to your goals and don't look elsewhere. there's nothing else worth looking at except for your north star. be the best servant of your aspiration. let that be your only light. walk steadily.
i have a feeling that we have walked so far that we are deep at the bottom of the u curve. i cant see it but the inflection point is so imminent that i can sense it. feel it. feel it everyday. let it energize you and drive you. dont let your thoughts drown you. have no thoughts beside the task that is laid in front of you.
