Flu

Goddamn!

I'm happy to announce that my stress journal is going well. I'm both getting down daily entries on my stress level (which is nice) and the levels are steadily and rapidly going down (which is great). The bad news is, then I got a horrible flu.

Sticking to Routines

How to make maintenance bearable?

I have a slight difficulties sticking to routines and stuff I already know how to do. Learning new things and planning how to pull them off and designing the processes is interesting. Actually following the process afterwards is not so great.

New stuff

What next?

I'm running out of stuff to try. I had in mind a bunch of things to test at the beginning of Hacked Man, but I've sort of done those already. Time to think up something.

Thinking up something


Why do I need new stuff?

Firstly, I can't have tried all the interesting and new things out there. There's bound to be . . .
