Weekly Whaaa…?

I use the ISO weeks from Monday to Monday, so ISO Week Week 01 is the week of 2024-12-30/2025-01-05. (Yes, this includes a bit of 2024, as confusing as that is. Time, am I right?)

Revelation of the Week: Vacation

It had been a very long time since I’d taken a substantial enough vacation to truly disengage from work! I finally dislodged my mind from work over the holidays, though, thankfully.

Having re-learned the crucial necessity of rest by gaining some distance from work, I’m going to try bringing a better sense of proportion & perspective into the new year.

I also made some physical progress charts for my reading lists, hanging them in a place where I pass by them constantly. Seeing this little reminder has already been motivating in a way that feels like self-led accomplishment rather than shame. That’s another revelation!

As far as books go, over the break I read:

100DaysToOffload

Over the break, I also was reminded of the 100 Days to Offload blogging challenge, via Stefan Bohacek’s Recurring creative challenges site. I think I’ll try this “post 100 things on your own site, no matter how small” challenge this year as a way of encouraging myself to do far more frequent, smaller chunks of writing.

Let the experimentation begin!
