Pivot
I’ve written eight articles for Project Arbiter and it has been difficult. It’s hard to be consistent. It’s also depressing to not have ideas on what to write for the next articles. I knew being consistent with a lifelong project was tough, but I didn’t know it would hit me this hard. Life moves on … Continue reading Pivot

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
Rest Days
Who would've thought the week I allotted for breaks turned out to be the most productive? Like, what the hell is going on?! I don't understand!

It's crazy how much mental pressure was removed by reframing … Continue reading Rest Days
Disappoinment
I planned this week with lessons I’ve learned in the past entries—being careful not to overwhelm myself. I’ve broken my tasks down into actionable items, limited my goals into three, and allotted a lot of time for each. The ending? A huge disappointment. The week sped through like a car on a highway, it was … Continue reading Disappoinment

Learning C++
I've learned a lot of programming languages in the past, and this particular language is a pain in the ass. I know Java, Python, Ruby, and C#, but this programming language is something that I'm forced to learn. I didn't learn it because I enjoy it unlike the other languages, but it's a requirement. I … Continue reading Learning C++
The HFY Subreddit is Underrated
The HFY (Humanity, Fuck Yeah!) subreddit contains the most underrated works of literature ever. Maybe, I'm biased here because I really want the human species to succeed. But, there's no denying that it contains a lot of amazing stories. Recently, I stumbled across the following stories for me to learn from. Do you want Humans? … Continue reading The HFY Subreddit is Underrated

The Most Effective Form of Learning
It was the second week of September, I was dumped with buttloads of data from medical professionals. In front of me was a Google Drive containing tens of folders, each with three sets of images showcasing different writing styles from beautiful to butt ugly. I assigned myself with the tedious task of cropping these data … Continue reading The Most Effective Form of Learning
