Convenience Above Anything Else
Daily writing promptWhat foods would you like to make?View all responses If you asked me what food I like to make, it would be easy-to-cook dishes.

Crash
The generic advice most successful people give out is to improve our systems and processes. I tried following that advice because who doesn't want to be successful too? This week of Project Arbiter has been a testament to that advice. I'm incredibly grateful for how far I've progressed with my other projects in one month. … Continue reading Crash

It's crazy how much mental pressure was removed by reframing … Continue reading Rest Days

The week sped through like a car on a highway, it was … Continue reading Disappoinment

This fourth entry of Project Arbiter is definitely one of the entries of all time. It wasn’t because I gave up on the project, nor was it because I tried another new shiny object.
