Today was a solid day, albeit not perfect. I managed to complete 5 hours of client work, even though I started later than I wanted to. I’m proud of myself for pushing through to meet my goal. Additionally, I improved my diet, making the day overall quite successful, yet there’s still some room for growth.
Today was average. I didn’t get back home until lunchtime and was really tired, so I took a nap. It was hard for me to get started with work, but I ended up pushing myself and got 4 hours done, even though my target was 5. It wasn’t the best day, but it wasn’t a disaster either, and I’m on a roll of 4-hour days, which is good for me. I just need to build off the momentum and push a bit harder, but I’m in a good place mentally and really hopeful for 2024. I’m sure I can catch up on work over the next few days.
This week, I’m feeling pretty good about how things went, even though I’m aware that I just managed to do the basics of what a productive week should look like. My days were filled with a solid four hours of work on client projects, but I can’t shake off the feeling that my life’s a bit off-kilter. I’m missing out on creating passive income and, let’s not forget, exercise was nowhere in my routine.
It was quite a day. Taking care of Duke in the morning can be a handful – he needs a few walks and his breakfast. I absolutely adore him, but it’s something that really shapes my morning routine. On top of that, I dedicate about 45 minutes to my Morning Pages, which pushes back my work start time to around 11 am. I’m thinking it might be wise to start my days a bit earlier.
I was disappointed to miss yesterday’s post after a late work night and a rushed morning today due to a client meeting. Overall, things are good. It’s a financially strong month, but I’m swamped with client meetings and coordination tasks, which barely leaves room for actual work.
Excitingly, I’ve landed two new small contracts. They took a lot of time and effort, but it’s great progress.
I planned to balance client work and passive income projects, but the influx of client projects is taking precedence. It’s a juggling act with so many clients.
I slept at my girlfriend’s place and helped her with some errands this morning because she wasn’t feeling well. I could have returned home earlier, but I needed to visit the pet store. So, I decided to walk home with Duke, my dog, from the Mile End, which took about an hour.
This decision was partly a conscious choice and partly procrastination. However, I rationalized that one of the benefits of being self-employed is the flexibility to create my own schedule, so I might as well enjoy it sometimes.
The first part of my day went well; I accomplished what I needed to do. However, I encountered a technical issue on a website that slowed me down. I didn’t have enough time to address it and, though I had hoped to make more progress, such setbacks are part of the job.
In the latter half of the day, I volunteered to help a friend with a catering event, seeing it as an opportunity to earn a bit of money for an evening’s work.
Today was challenging. I got sidetracked by an unexpected and frustrating situation, which prevented me from focusing on my work. My mind couldn’t reengage afterwards, making the day feel unproductive. I’m not very pleased with myself about this.
Today was pretty good, even though I started late because I was setting up this post template.
I did 6 hours of work, but a lot of it was taken up by a long client meeting. I also spent an hour on passive income projects.
Financially, it was a great day with $1,200 coming in, making this month look good so far.
I didn’t exercise since I’m still sick, and my diet wasn’t great either. But overall, I’m really happy with how the day went.
Waking up today, I felt alright, even though it was a bit late at 9 am. Taking care of my dog and jotting down my Morning Pages meant I only really started my day around 11, kicking off with a video call. That’s way later than I’d like.
My mood stayed pretty good throughout, but I did lose some steam in the afternoon. Overall, the day was okay, but I definitely need to amp up my productivity and make a point to start my days earlier.
