Spent some time cleaning up my Dropbox FML need to focus
Drink coffee b/c I'm procrastinating on recording vids explaining my accomplishments for past clients and could use the dopamine rush to push through it.
Listen to the Mindscape podcast while trying to fall asleep because it seems easier to sleep if I'm not mentally "talking to myself"
Ordered an adjustable keyboard/mouse stand that I want to try combining with the wooden board I use to be able to use my laptop while I'm walking on the treadmill at the gym, b/c the wooden board is lower than is ideal.
Trying out the Upwork Agency to see if it's worth it to have a VA submit proposals for me. And also b/c I'm curious to learn more about Upwork.
Did a LeetCode question w/ Anki
Get on a treadmill for the first time in months, I've gained like 10kg 😱 since a squat injury that seems to be healed now
Watched a NeetCode video, need to get back into studying LeetCode
Spent time dictating an explanation of what I had accomplished for two major previous clients and thinking about how such presentations should be structured.
Watching a talk on how to hire great software developers
12hr screenshare with scatterbrained Australian owner of gobongo.co
Did a 6.5hr call with a scatterbrained Australian Upwork client
Spend 12hrs on a call with a new (crazy) Upwork client :(
Dragged my audio recording of my 1-minute description of what I got done for my client into Windows Clipchamp after procrastinating all day about starting on this. Baby steps.
Cleared out all my old Upwork notifications one-by-one because there isn't a button to do it all at once.
Network card on my desktop PC failed, need to get a new one and a WiFi dongle in the meantime 😭
Created a first-draft of a 1-minute explanation of what I did for ACL to send to potential employers.
Continued working on recreating the Upwork reviews UI so I can show my Upwork reviews to potential employers who don't have Upwork accounts and thus can't easily view my Upwork reviews.
Fixed a problem with the code I'd written for my client that had been bugging me and which I knew would look bad if it was noticed by end-users.
Working on extracting my Upwork reviews into an external (non-Upwork) webpage so that I can easily print them to PDF and show them to people without Upwork accounts who won't be able to view them if I just send them a link to my Upwork profile.
