A gentle rant about projects and expectations on a budget
A few notes from my attempt:
- keep the first step visible
- remove one annoying decision
- celebrate the boring repeat
I tried this in Kuala Lumpur with a friend and we both noticed the same thing: the social part mattered more than the perfect plan.
I started this because my busy month felt a little stuck, and projects seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.
