“Taking a new step, uttering a new word, is what people fear most.”
That quote is from Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky. While I managed my way half way through the book at university I can’t claim to have actually read the book. The words come through clearly however, as starting my online journal has been something that I have delayed constantly. But today is the day! And I am determined to write it everyday.
I am in self-isolation for the next 6 days due to a positive covid test. This has given me some time to think and, as part of that thinking, time to write. I have an assignment due next week for my course so it may even be beneficial that I can’t leave the house.
My accomplishments yesterday include; mocking up my assignment, doing a lot of reading and re-realising the potential of the pomodoro technique (I haven’t used it since the the beginning of the year). If I get time, which I most certainly should, I will write a post of my love of the pomodoro technique.
What I could have done better – Yesterday, was a seemingly perfect day. Albeit, I am stuck at home. I would like to improve my diet (I ate quite a hefty sandwich in the morning).
Health – Today, I will try to work out. I haven’t touched my weights since the weekend. This is mainly due to having covid. But I can’t use that as an excuse not to stay in shape. Or can I?
What I learned today – Everyday, I try to learn something new. Recently, I have been listening to a Pimsleur French audio course. Maybe I should write a post on that too!
I will leave this post with a picture from my window, which is all that I am going to be seeing really for the next 6 days.
