Lately, I’ve been on a stand-up comedy purge. At the end of every night, I’ve been investing time into YouTube—searching for the next funniest thing. Then, I’d wake up the next day and look for the next big thing in technology. Venture Capital is great… even if the economy sucks. People are constantly innovating.

Anyways, last night, I came across a comedian that I’ve enjoyed for the last year, Demetri Martin. In his series, “If I,” he tells of his point system, which he hoped would result in self-improvement.

The way he describes it is hilarious. I’ve conducted experiments that were quite similar to his. You can check out his talk below on the activity:
