Good afternoon, chat! I had a pretty chill day at work today—no meetings, no distractions, no huddles, none of that BS. It was such a peaceful and productive day. Honestly, I hope there are more workdays like this one in the future.

Another highlight of the day was definitely the weather. It was sunny as hell all day long. Big shoutout to the weather gods—appreciate you! Tomorrow’s my short-distance jog day, so please work your magic again. Your boy wants to sweat and shed a little weight!

On another note, I’ve got plans to make tonight productive too. I’ll probably start the evening by playing some video games to unwind, but after that, it’s all about my personal project until bedtime. Speaking of my project, I just checked the total amount of money I’ve spent on it since I started working on it. So far, I’ve dropped about $10k from my own pocket. If that’s not commitment, I don’t know what is.

To be fair, though, I could’ve saved $6k if I’d spent more time brainstorming instead of rushing in without a plan. Do I regret spending that much on stuff I’ll probably never use? A little. I mean, $6k is still $6k. But it’s okay—I’m confident in this project. I know it’s going to succeed. And I’ll make sure it does.

Good evening, chat! How y'all doing? I almost forgot to write an entry again today. Honestly, Google Calendar has been lowkey the MVP these past few days. If you're trying to build a habit, this is your sign to set a reminder on your calendar. Believe me, it works—especially if you're someone whose phone is always right next to them.

Now that I think about it, I don't think there's been a single day since 2014 where I haven't stared at a screen. Ever since I got my first phone, my eyes have no idea what it's like to spend a full day without looking at a glowing blue screen. It makes me want to go on a trip somewhere without a single device. But then again, I’m not sure that’s even possible, especially since everything nowadays is online.

What I could do, though, is travel to a remote area—like a province with garbage internet connection. That’d definitely keep me away from my phone and laptop. Damn, that actually doesn’t sound like a bad idea. I feel like I’d thrive in that environment. Honestly, I could probably spend months living like that.

Of course, I’d have to make sure I have my stuff together before heading out on a trip like that. I mean, I’d need enough money to survive and all that. One day, chat. One day.

Good morning, chat! Looks like the weather gods are serving us another gloomy morning, just like yesterday. But today, it’s extra cloudy and cold—I don’t see even a hint of sunbeams breaking through the sky. Yesterday, the skies cleared up by the afternoon, but I have a feeling that’s not happening today. And honestly, I’m a little bummed because Sunday is my run day. Guess I’ll have to wait and see if tomorrow’s weather is more runner-friendly. For now, it looks like another ‘walk-around-the-garage’ kind of morning.

Anyway, I had a pretty unproductive day yesterday. It was mostly just video games—and by “mostly,” I mean entirely. To be fair, though, I really needed the break. Like I mentioned in my previous entries, last week was super stressful at work. Spending hours gaming was just my way of decompressing. That said, I’m planning to get some work done today, so don’t worry—my project is still on track to launch by mid-February.

In other news, the Trump Coin just hit a 15B market cap. For context, I first noticed it when it was at $1.5B. If I hadn’t overthought it back then, I’d be sitting on a 10x return right now. The irony of that adds a bit more bitterness to an already bitter morning. Honestly, if this had been 2021, back when I was a full-on degenerate throwing money at anything shiny, I probably would’ve bought in without hesitation. Lesson learned: in a bull season, sometimes overthinking is the real enemy. We live and learn, chat. We live and learn.
