This is my attempt at writing 250 words per day for the whole of July.
Simple self-challenges like this are what makes life a little fun and gives you something to look forward to.
If you don't know how to measure productivity, giving yourself small task like this to complete helps you measure whether or not you did something productive with your day and time.
Some of these tasks for me are working out, reading for at least 15 minutes a day, writing something down even if its a few words for my digital log book, and doing something no matter how small for my website or any other web projects.
I've been enjoying mini essays of recent so I decided to try Substack again to see if I'll like it. It wasn't bad but how I wish there was a way to prevent certain kind of algorithmic content from appearing on my screen because they irk me.
One goal I think I'll set for myself this month is to fill one of my pocket notepads with writings from different books I find at the bookshop I frequent. I'll take pictures from different books of things that I like or things that speak to me and then I'll rewrite them in my notepad. I might also try learning to draw lily flowers. I've been exploring them again but via illustrations and paintings. I've been trying to add more flowers to my website so hopefully I am able to do all these this month. Wish me luck!
