- in an interview from 1990 ↗ Alan Kay says that all the things he's carrying are to provide a "balanced day" so he can still practice music and play, even when flying somewhere for work
- there seems to be common theme here with Strive to be Well Rounded
- balance in life seems to be very important (unless you're fixating on being the greatest at a single thing - and maybe not even then!)
- using multiple parts of the brain during the day - to allow the parts "used" in one activity to recover while using other "parts" - this is the same idea with Westside training where variations of the main lifts are used to "work around" fatigue of the main lift
