The ugly calendar that works
A fifteen-year spreadsheet habit that opens on a laptop, on purpose — because the friction is the point. Why low-tech beats high-friction for honest review.
The receipts, on camera.
The first TRC videos begin with evidence rather than generic advice — the actual calendar habit, the actual 1993–94 diary, the actual effort data, and the honest story of building something with another person and watching it end. Each video gets its own page here, with a transcript, a short written takeaway and the receipts behind it.

The 1993 diary
A handwritten diary from a year overseas, still on the shelf thirty-plus years later. On what private evidence accumulates into, and why embarrassing old entries are the most useful ones.

Measured effort
More than 475,000 effort points on the record, not reconstructed from memory. On standards, data and what it actually means to show up.
