This sounds good, but in practice it can be a bad idea without more context. This would have saved me a lot of trial and error.

I disagree a bit. actually matters, but the bigger issue is usually expectations. I used to overcomplicate this constantly. This is kinder advice than most of the internet manages.

Great point, especially the part about stuck. I keep a note about strength for exactly this reason.

This sounds good, but in practice it can be a bad idea without more context. I would write it down before changing anything else.

What would you change if you started over? The weekend version is even more interesting.

I love this. It feels practical without pretending life is neat. This is more useful on a tired busy month than on a perfect day.

This has cozy competence written all over it. For me it came down to the prototype.

Amazing how much difference one small change can make. A little friction removed goes a long way.
