I changed one thing and suddenly people made sense from my busy month notes
I started this because my weekend felt a little stuck, and people seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.
This is probably obvious to veterans here, but it clicked for me only recently. stories got easier when I stopped treating every attempt like a final exam.
A few notes from my attempt:
- keep the first step visible
- remove one annoying decision
- celebrate the boring repeat
> Tiny progress is still progress.
That line sounds cheesy, but it got me through the part where questions stopped feeling new.
