Merry Christmas, #100Devs !
Nice going, man! I've been working on my flexibility. Taking the Atomic Habits advice of tying it to a trigger activity that I do anyway, I've been stretching my hamstrings daily for a few weeks. Could barely reach my shins before, now I'm touching fists (and occasionally palms) to the floor.
Ayyyy, the tree's back! π
I should watch Kurzgesagt more often. They have some cool stuff. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwSz...

I put down the work and say 'okay fine I'll finish this up later' but my brain says "oh no, we're still thinking about this. Open VScode again right now!"
Working on a React Native app MVP and I'm feeling the brain-burn. I try to keep Leon's advice in mind: 'Manage frustration'

I do a codewars problem every day. If I'm low on time, I might do an easier one just to keep the brain in code mode. I realized today that I'm running out of those easier ones. Guess I'm just gonna have to do harder ones by default.
Have been successfully getting up earlier, and I think I'm liking it so far. Having most or all of my daily wins done by 11am is... new.
