Resolutions: July Update
For more information about my year-long Resolutions project, check out this post and this one.
On a personal level, the month of July was frustrating, to say the least. There’s loads of content I’d like to start adding to this website, but at the same time, I have to keep poring my energy into more “offline” projects (namely the Dream Machine and Polyphasic Sleep), since I anticipate that completing them first will be the most beneficial in the long run.
- 20 Hours (of Productivity): 8
- The Good: July was actually an extremely productive month for me, though you would never know it by skimming the month’s Blurblog posts (all two of them)! I’ve not started tracking hours yet, but I’ve been averaging around five hours of (polyphasic) sleep per day, and have been reasonably good about not wasting the other 19 hours. One unexpected positive side effect of the Dream Machine project is that the polyphasic schedule has come more easily — it’s easier to stay awake when you’ve got a well-defined to-do sitting right in front of you.
- The Bad: Admittedly, Don’tASQ has suffered some neglect. While productivity is great, I’ve got to strive to be more balanced. “But what exactly is ‘productivity?’” Yeah, yeah, I’m getting there…
- Finances: 6
- The Good: I’ve put some serious thought into financial planning, and may consider turning it into a project (maybe even a global one).
- The Bad: I haven’t actually done the planning yet.
- Fitness: 4
- The Good: Bonus points for being very intentional about eating healthy — and succeeding (most of the time).
- The Bad: The Fitness Project is on a hiatus. See this post for more info.
- Social/Relationships: 3
- The Good: I try to see the good in things, even when there isn’t necessarily any to be found.
- The Bad: On this front, not much has changed since… well, since January.
