Week 21

What Happened This Week

Skipped another day of workout. Why? Finally had the Covid-Vaccine.

The week also felt a little long. Work drained the crap out of me. I’m glad it’s a long weekend. I needed the time to recover — mentally

Other things that happened:

  • Created multiple chequing accounts to automate our finances.
  • Finished watching Akame Ga Kill on Netflix.
  • Bought Assassins Creed: Odyssey.

Thoughts/Questions I don’t know really the answer to:

  1. How does a character from a show grow on you?
  2. I want to write about Akame Ga Kill, but I couldn’t find a good reason why I should.

Insights:

  • The reason why it takes me a week to finish writing an article is that:
    1. I have conflicting ideas I wanna cram into the article.
    2. I go on a tangent a lot.
    3. I edit as I go.
  • I couldn’t stop thinking about Akame Ga Kill because:
    1. It ended pretty fast.
    2. Of its unpredictability.
      • these are elements of a story I want to capture in my writing.
  • I need to get better at drafting and capturing ideas. This means that I need to create my own process. There’s a lot of stuff in my head I want to put out there but I don’t really know how to communicate it.

That’s it for this week!

A Year Ago This Week

  • When one of my supervisors left for another department, the future responsibilities I intended to take on (as per our conversation) also left.
  • I’m learning how to speed read using Jordan Peterson’s 12-Rules for Life.
  • I decided to get better at delivering the insurance presentation. *I’m going to give up my license this year lol
  • I went through a free Financial Independence course – just to gauge how much I know already.
