A week in a bchallenge

Matteo Penzo — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 13:09:28 PDT

I got promoted… by my self. I was able to spend a full working week going to bed early, waking up at 6 and having a run before my usual day started. Phew. Despite what friends and colleagues told me (a week is too short as a timeframe; you’re not really changing your behavior; why [...]

bchallenge. Day 4

Matteo Penzo — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 13:56:22 PDT

Everything is becoming mechanical. And I’d say I’m happy this personall chalenge is coming to an end. I really don’t care waking up at six every morning (there’s a lot of life out there at that time, I don’t feel alone), but I don’t like running in the cold anymore (and this morning we had [...]

Toughest day in my bchallenge

Matteo Penzo — Fri, 07 Oct 2011 14:42:57 PDT

Today the alarm clock woke me up at 6am as usual, but it was pretty hard get out of the bed, dress me up and go out running. The worst thing was the panic in my legs: after more than a year without running, two days in a row on a 5/6 Km track was [...]

Lots of humidity, fresh air, nice wheather but [...]

The behaviour cha(lle)nge

Matteo Penzo — Tue, 04 Oct 2011 12:29:43 PDT

AKA changing (some of) my habits for a week and tracking the results. but first things first. I’m really happy when the alarmclock is not ringing thus I’m able to wake up early enough to have a whooole day in front of me. I love to sleep, even if I was not able to wake [...]

Forbes: innovative ideas from Florence to the web

Matteo Penzo — Wed, 21 Sep 2011 09:29:28 PDT

Thanks to my friend Roberto Bonzio (of Italiani di Frontiera fame) Forbes today publishes a video interview to yours truly and my partner Leeander regarding Frontiers of Interaction (note: the innovation conference I founded and produce). Here’s a snippet: In this video, Matteo Penzo and Lendro Agrò, Frontiers cofounders, explain Forbes their efforts since 2005, [...]

Learn from your errors. Even if you’re a software.

Matteo Penzo — Wed, 10 Aug 2011 02:18:41 PDT

Those who know me have learnt how I like errors. Well not the error itself, but the new knowledge that failures generate (I’ve wrote about this here). And, among all the fantastic speakers that showed up at Frontiers of Interaction 2011, the one I really felt as touching my inner cords was Zdenek Kalal: a [...]
