What happened?
The energy I had in the first post is waning, but I can't fail this time, either. Still, I'm happy I continued to make progress here.
Wireframing the app is done. Yes, you read it right it's done. I have given a score of 4 because even though I completed this task early last week, I haven't touched the project since then. It goes to show that I have to commit the things I'm going to do for it to have a chance to be done.
I'm happy with the task of walking for 30 mins. Although I have made a slight modification. I decided to run instead for 10 mins. It is much more fulfilling and satiating. I believe this is better than walking at moderate speed for 30 mins. Regardless, I missed a couple of days for which I deducted a point.
I have completed medium-ranked questions for most of the week. This is much better than the target I have placed. The last item was also pretty satisfactory. I have completed about 3 modules. This is better than last week.
Next week's goals
- Publish the weekly retro.
- Set up the source code and design the first view of the app.
- Run for 10 mins daily
- Complete medium leetcode challenges daily.
- Complete one module of AWS Training.
Where to?
Even though this week is a major improvement over the last. I still can't but wonder why my motivation is draining. The plan to redirect to the Oath page I mentioned in my previous post, seemed to work initially but then I quickly began ignoring and falling into my old self. I think I should bite the bullet and keep it going until I get over the urge to this mundane way of life.
I should put more effort into this site. Thereby increasing the stakes I have here. This should increase my motivation to complete the tasks I'm assigning to myself.
