Nov.04 | The Monday Report
Creating chaos for the sake of creating chaos seems to be the recipe for virality for social media "influencers". In reality it only leads to more problems for everyone involved. Do better.
FITLETE’s Professional Update
Website Directories: 87 Worldwide organizations have been added to the master list within the education directory. These companies provide education across the spectrum, from in-person to online. This is important not for the mere reality that “more people teaching is better” because that’s not necessarily the case. For me, these organizations help fill gaps other providers already in the directories were not filling. These gaps can be areas of operation, style of learning, or language around learning and topics.
Podcast: I'm processing the initial interviews, and I hope to publish the first one next week to kick off the Spotlight Series!
Instagram: I have made some progress with the short videos I want to make showing the directory features when looking for events. I at least have a first draft of the video script that I will follow. Now, I have to test it once or twice to ensure recording and editing won’t distract from my other, arguably more meaningful work.
Newsletter: I have been creating different sections of this newsletter(not public yet) to make more publicly available content from the website and directories. The directories are my way of building efficiency and organization within branches of our industry. At the same time, these other sections in the newsletter will just act as another semi-organized display of information with a little more depth than I can provide visually within the directories(it would look too cluttered).
**As always, I will not spam your inboxes when new material is published within these sections, in podcasts, or social posts. You will still only get your Monday Report every Monday. Future Monday Reports will simply include links to the content, just like those event recaps from two weeks ago or like this one below, which is the Monday Report with those event recaps linked in it.
Fantastic podcasts I heard last week:
Science Vs. Podcast- Microplastics: How worried should we be?
Sigma Nutrition- #537: Appetite Regulation, Metabolic Compensation and More – Stephan Guyenet, PhD
The Startup Ideas Podcast- How to build a swipe file and steal like an artist
The Sport Psych Show- #302 Dr Derek Panchuk - The Importance of Coaching Visual Perception

George’s Personal Update
Funny fact. A few weeks ago( I forgot to share), a friend of mine from high school, I will make up a name and call her Kat Trice . She posted on her IG story that she lives in a state that only requires 1 license plate on the car, but she bought the car when she lived in a state with 2 license plates required and she needed an idea for something cool to put in the empty space. I replied saying to put a QR code that led to an image saying something funny or a website. She liked that idea and was like “how about your website?” Well, that’s exactly what we did! I made her a QR code from google chrome that goes to FITLETE.COM haha. I cracked up when she shared the photo of it on the car. I hope to see a random spike of traffic from this state lol, that would make me laugh even more.
