My goal for the month of July was:

• continue on the synthesis and try to have a closure on it, spending about 2 more hours

I didn’t have any goals for August.

I only managed to spend another hour in July, and I don’t have a closure. So I have decided to park this work for a while.

The good news is that I have just started reading Daniel Dennett’s Intuition Pumps and Other Tools for Thinking this month, one of the books on my reading plan for 2014.

I have decided to read this book not in digital format, but on good old paper. I have also decided to allow myself to trash this book with highlights and annotations as I see fit.

My goal for the rest of the month is simply to make progress reading this book.
