Week 13 - Oct 22, Tues - Streak: 58 days
@Forerunner Glad you found it helpful! Yes definitely a book to put on the to-read list. I’ll also make sure to check out High Performance Habits. Sounds like exactly what I need considering my problems with sleep.
As for me,
Eh kind of day today. Lots of things are going on and it’s been pretty stressful. Gonna vent below, so feel free to skip.
In computer science lab we are working on a hard project this week, and I feel like I am behind all my friends. They are going to lab again tomorrow and I want to go but then I didn’t even finish my homework for tonight, and there’s a ton more I’ve got tomorrow.
And it’s late. Really wishing I could skip class and sleep in, but idk I don’t know if the professor notices and I told him I was really trying to up my grade. I don’t want him to think I’m a slacker. Plus there might be important info I miss. Frustrating cause I can never work when I’m tired.
Was on a good system today and maybe would have been able to work it all out but ironically, considering my last post, my cousin introduced me to this girl today who’s also single and we have some important stuff in common I guess. She seems nice but I was stressing about texting her cause I’m terrible at talking to people via text, especially when we just met. I don’t know if it will work out or not, if we will click or not, but it just took a lot of my time today and I wasted hours I should have spent on hw. I’m meeting her on Saturday, so I’ll let you guys know how that goes.
Anyway, so ya, it’s going to kind of be hell tomorrow. But I’m just going to bear through it. I’m going to get that work done and I’m going to play it smart. I’m not going to work on code cause it’s all gibberish when I’m tired. I’m going to get everything else done so I can crank out the code Thursday.
I made the mistake of letting my emotions and stress get in the way of my goals today, but I can’t let that happen tomorrow. And it’s 10x more important because I’ll be tired. But if keep my head down and grind, I can pull it off.
Stay strong everyone!
This is my streak, I am going to make it.
