I started this lil’ cribbage board like ~3 years ago and set aside for more exciting projects. Oh well, now it’s done!

Tonight I overheard a woman ask the staff at a popular restaurant, that was fully booked, if she could move tables.

They said “unfortunately, everything is booked but we will see what we can do”

Her follow up was “What? Are they more important than me?”

The first time you try anything, you will be bad at it.

Pursuing mastery means being bad at something for as long as it takes to become great at it.

Revisit your why.
- Reflection on why I started to learn in the first place is what kept me going.

Keep engaging with your community.
- Doing it alone sucks.

Reflect on what energizes you. - For me, that's going to meetups and talking to other engineers about what they are working on.

I woke up from a deep sleep last night to take an important note. I wish I knew what was so important...
