Productivity

“It depends” is always true. It’s the easy answer. But for the hard questions — it’s rarely the right one.

You don’t need to add hours to get better. You just need to notice the reps you already do. Same work. Sharper reps.

Tech debt isn’t something to resent—it’s a receipt. A sign that something got made. That progress happened. Now it’s your turn to move it forward.

Before you build the plan—count the days. Real days. The ones you can actually work with. It’s simpler than it sounds. And more sobering than you’d expect.

Archiving is how I close chapters. Not just to organize the work—but to honor it. To say: this mattered. This happened. We did it.

Process should be earned. Not inherited. Not performed. Not protected out of habit.

Fear isn’t something to solve. It’s something to manage. Acknowledge it. Focus it. Work with it. Work through it. Then make something that matters.

Adapt with change, and change feels less disruptive. The setup may shift. The tools may break. But the rhythm? You can still keep going.

Being early isn’t just about peace of mind. It’s a chance to help someone else—without pressure, without judgement. Just presence.

Packing isn’t just about stuff. It’s about seeing clearly—what you carry, how it fits, and who you are. One bag at a time, I’m learning how I think.

I wake. I log. I pour the water. Instant coffee, same shelf, same cup. It’s not inspiration—it’s habit. And somewhere in the quiet, the idea comes.

Missing a day doesn’t mean the routine is broken. It’s just a moment to pause, reflect, and ask: is this still serving me? If yes, keep going. If not, let go.

A speedrun forces decisions, cuts the fluff, and brings the real problem into view. You may not solve it—but you’ll always learn something useful.

Demos build trust—not because they’re perfect, but because they’re real. Show the thing. Let people feel it. That’s how you help people get it.

We underestimate how powerful small tips can be. 5 things I use every day that feel too simple to matter—but quietly changed how I work.
