Last full week for me in China. Need to really make sure all paperwork, visas, exit docs, etc are lined up so one left behind in borders or airports (it has happened before, nightmare to say the least)

Stressful last week with Thailand visa / China exit procedures. Knee deep in documents, PDF, and bureaucracy! Reminds me of why I love blockchain – transparency in the procedure! But keep fighting – keep sending the documents to various government agencies.

Paperwork should arrive for Thailand immigration this week. Nerve-racking as not sure how long things will take, and where I’ll be living. But the work must go on!

HR / payroll / finance as our team and company gets larger and more complex got me thinking, TAAP (team as a platform). we must keep investing in these core admin processes and team.

Keep building. We have been doing at Shadstone since forever. We are making a team, making systems, making a platform – for us to build and create. Sure, many of our projects do not go as planned, but we keep moving forward.

Weekly launch calendar, and product launch workflow – really exciting to work with our great team on this standard process. Once running, believe will further reduce my personal stress.

GFA village dreamlining (after reading book “Network State”) – the end game of GFA community was always to make a “real life” community and ecosystem.

But we are pushing ahead and Monday is a normal work day – got plenty of calls and plans packed in to discuss. Such as Blimp Program expansion for cohort 2 with Aubrey, and pushing limits on various projects we have.

Lockdown again in Futian, Shenzhen (schools closed, daily mandatory tests) so it is pushing me even more to decide where to move for Fall (Thailand, Philippines, Japan, Cyprus, USA)
