Getting stronger every day

Getting stronger every day

So one of my mantras lately is "getting stronger every day". One of my goals is to improve my fitness -  build muscle, lose fat, that kind of thing - and I find that with a mantra you want to have something that's aspirational but also realistic - because otherwise my brain will go "that's not true" But the cool thing about this one is that you can get stronger in so many different ways - like maybe my ability to curl weights goes up one day,  Maybe one day I lose some weight...weight loss goes up and down so much It's never that consistent - like the other day... I realize I've been drinking more water and having less of the iced tea, which is another one of my goals, right so that so it kind of forces your brain to look for little ways in which you're getting stronger, which I think is helpful to the whole process.

Learning to let go

Learning to let go

As a developer, one of things you need is the ability to really focus for long periods of time.

In my own life, I can see that bleed into obsessiveness at times.

One of things I'm learning now is how to let go.

That's my thing lately...just learning to let go of things.

I can be obsessive about things.

Letting go is great for me for a number of reasons.

It helps me to be less anxious, a bit less of a hassle to deal with, and just happier in general.

If an idea comes into my head or a thought or worry, I'll be able to not necessarily have to obsess about it.

Not have to solve it or have to figure it out right away.

This is something that feels really healthy for me.

Having a Content team is really helpful so that you don't second-guess yourself while posting. 


Medium is the message

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_medium_is_the_message


There’s something very freeing about recording long form content and then deciding after the fact which pieces of content you want to distribute. Deciding on whether to talk about 1 topic or 17 topics.

If you're trying to create content, hack your psychology. Find the right time of day. Coffee in the morning for me. I feel discouraged multiple times per day.

Companies that embrace remote are winning. Without naming names I see this playing out in Magento ecosystem. Companies who previously were anti-remote are now remote.

Before sending a potentially contentious message, sleep on it

 - Another nice thing about batching your replies on social media is that it forces you to sleep on it before responding to something that could be potentially sensitive or make you angry. 


Based on current maturity of nocode I think nocode is more important than code for my 10 year old daughter.
