I’ve been feeling great about myself this month. There’s been a lot of positive mood recorded, especially towards the last half of the month. The records speak for themselves: 2024November: 130December: 182 2025January: 212February: 259March: 255April: 253May: 344 Since November, daily activities have seen a 260% increase. I’m VERY pleased that I’ve been able not…

Anger has been a large part of my experience lately. Despite the overall positive mood, I feel mildly worried, bitter, frustrated, and distant from my partner. Meditation is something I’d like to bring closer to an everyday, teeth-brushing level of regularity, and I think that’s achievable. I’ve noticed mindfulness actively helping over the last few…

I’ve been in a good mood since the 16th. Between a small promotion at work and feeling more in control of myself lately, I think a lot of the usual self-critical factors have been diminished for the time being. The 30th is approaching and with it the next step on the long journey to the…

The past few months have demonstrated a competency in setting, adjusting, and achieving desirable goals in a month-to-month context, building to reach a longer term goal (getting a job). Now that a better job perhaps on the horizon, I’d like to repeat this process, with the next few months being oriented towards learning about, acquiring…

Starting the new job has been a major adjustment. The past few weeks have been filled with job related stuff, and job related thoughts with it. In April every activity category was reduced, so I guess we’ve finally found that wall I’ve been longing to hit for a while now. With that in mind, I’d…

A lot has changed since the beginning of the month, and as I continue to work towards the current set of goals I think we are getting close to a baseline. This week, my partner and I both had covid, my partner’s grandparent passed away, and I also received a job offer to start on…

Physical posture is holding your body in proper alignment, keeping head above shoulders. shoulders back, etc. Maintaining proper physical posture keeps the musculature of the body healthy and prevents strain. In extreme, poor physical posture can cause permanent physical changes or persistent pain. Applying a similar theory to the mind, proper mental posture might involve…

I want to write a project in java this month that will let me automate some travel processes from my custom ttrpg. As they currently are, I worry that there is too much dice rolling and table checking to keep things flowing the way I want them to in game. Programming this system should let…

When I began my activity project, I expected to quickly run into a “wall” of difficulty and after establishing a baseline at that wall, working from there to steadily improve. Instead, over the last 4 months, I’ve seen continuous improvement in activity numbers. Its surprising, and prompts me to reconsider my expectations for what seems…

Last month I wrote that the goals for February were going to be “a major step up in challenge compared to the previous 3 months”. I was both excited and apprehensive at the thought of making 4 separate goals to be completed, each a substantial step up from last month. To simultaneously improve across mental…
