Ju mer jag lär mig

om livet, desto mer älskar jag mina skidor.

I morgon bär det av till Mora.
Bilen full av skidor o stavar. Har skaffat en roterande borste, går oerhört mycket lättare att borsta skidorna nu...

Good or bad? Geni eller idiot?

Denne skidåkare har delat in skidvärlden i 2 läger. Ingen är oberörd. Är han galen eller är det en bra strategi att göra sig "impopulär"? Är hans mediabeteende medvetet eller är det barnsligt? Jag är benägen att tro det är medvetet och att han gör det mest på skoj, antingen för att han inte bryr sig eller för att han bara vill vara ifred.

Gavleloppet

Körde inte idag pga irriterade luftrör sen 3 dagar. Åkte till Gävle och följde loppet istället. Ganska flack bana med några korta saxbackar. Hade nog passat mig bra, viktigt få med sig farten upp i backen men inga långa stigningar. Föret var medelsnabbt för det mesta, hade kommit ett par-tre cm i förrgår och de tidigare isiga spåren var uppfrästa med "piggmaskin" och segertiden i herrklassen 2,15 / 45km. Jag åkte mest omkring ett par varv på milspåret (de tävlande körde 1 varv på 5 km spåret och 4 varv på milspåret) och tjötade på min kompis om stakteknik mm. Han körde riktigt bra och kom 3:a i H45. Bra jobbat Micke!

Vädret var helt kanon, 2 minusgrader, vindstilla och solsken!

Almost an hour!

Faster skiing?

Nope, that was last weekend. I did a great race despite putting on too much grip wax....
This weekend I´ll go without grip wax! If I enter the race, that is. I have a little cough so I might use the weekend for recovery...
The rest pulse is 47 so it´s no big problem.

What was almost an hour faster is the result of the time study we did earlier this week.
Imagine, spending more than 3 hours in front of the computer each day as a doctor. I entered med school with the illusion to work with people...

The time could be shortened. With the concept LUNA an estimated time spare would be 57 minutes! And that´s with only the first improvements. It´s almost like Koenigsegg or another supercar. When most of the companies struggle to reach 400 km/h, suddenly Bugatti goes 429 km/h. My system will go more than 500 km/h compared to the rest of the actors in the world of Healthcare IT according to this very first test. If I am satisfied? Hell no, there is a lot more to do.

Think different



Think outside of the box is an expression most people use as an excuse for not getting the grip of things. My philosophy is to get to the core of why we are doing things. Why do I train today? To become a better skier. Does waxing the skis twice and polishing them for 5 minutes help me become a better skier? Probably not. What´s important is to stay focused and do the training I NEED TO BE A BETTER SKIER.

Sometimes I use grip wax. Sometimes I put on a thin layer, sometimes i deliberately put on far too much of grip wax.
Does that make me a better skier? Probably! I believe at Vasaloppet you must be able to ski at least a part of the distance with suboptimal grip. It seems natural to train that quality.!

With gide wax, I do put it on once in a while. But I don´t put it on and scrape it all off 3-5 times before a simple training. That´s nothing more than waste of time! If I go with a thick layer of Base Wax Low Flour I don´t harm my skis or my skiing. Maybe the skis will glide a little slower after 50 kilometers than they should I i scraped the wax of. But from the beginning I do not notice any big difference. Probably I do notice a bigger difference when I switch to stiffer poles ( I´m using KRAFTSTAVEN as you can see on the pics).

Today we made a time study again at work. Tomorrow we will have a look at the figures. Like with Vasaloppet, I have a bunch of ideas how to save a lot of time. In Vasaloppet I´m getting closer to the dream of cutting the time down to half of that from the beginning 8 years ago (when I was 37 and skied Vasaloppet just under 10 hours). With my Kraftstaven poles, a few hundred hours of training and good weather conditions 5 hours are not too far away as It feels right now.

Tomorrow we´ll make an estimate of what a major bunch of changes in the work process could do to cut my working time.
AS I DO SINCERELY BELIEVE, ALL EXISTING ELECTRONIC PATIENT JOURNALS ARE SIMPLY NOT EVEN CLOSE TO THE KIND OF WORKING TOOL THEY COULD BE.

TAKE A LOOK AT THE CORE OF THE PROCESS AND ASK YOURSELF IF YOU NOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING. RIGHT NOW YOU ARE EITHER A DOCTOR WORKING WITH FILLING THE SYSTEM WITH MORE MEANINGLESS AN IRRELEVANT INFORMATION OR CHANCES ARE YOU ARE AT WORK DEVELOPING ANOTHER WAY TO FERMENTATE THE INFORMATION MENTIONED ABOVE. THANK YOU ALL AMERICAN FOLLOWERS.

Till alla andra, skidåkare och vänner: Stort tack för den gångna veckan. Vi syns snart. Jag har långt gångna planer på att stålsickla ett par av mina skidor. Kanske redan i veckan!
