Psyched to read the updates and all of the things you learn on the way! I love the "challenge" structure. I'm sure that these posts will be inspiration for me in my own creatively sustainable pursuits. Excited to follow the adventure!
Dang how long is 1000 days! This is a great reflection and I’m excited to follow your journey. If I could make a suggestion that I’m considering for myself right now. Every weeks (or days) off. Like every 8 weeks you have planned time off. What I’m finding is I can be excited about what I’m doing and then burn out and forced to break. Ok now I’m indulging my own problems. Excited for you and for the cool things you’ll create!
Thank you!! And same. Plz post more of your sawdust =) I actually wish you would indulge in your own problems like 10x more often!
YEAH you are not wrong I am susceptible to the same thing. When I take breaks I want them to be planned, not because "CRAP I ran out of gas" which is how it usually works. I'm thinking aboaut how to integrate that, and I'm thinking the way I'll approach it is something like "Day 63. Todo list: TAKE A BREAK"
Haha how interesting, I need to journal more so I can get in touch with my problems better.
I'll be curious to know what you find works for you! I think have "take a break" on your to do list is actually very smart. Sometimes I'll block off my calendar for a break, it's crazy how difficult it can be to stick with, but way easier if it's already planned.
I'll let you know!! I have a visceral flinching reaction to planning a break now that I think about it. Historically, I've never been able to predict when I need one. I have memories of setting timers and then being like nah actually I have momentum I'd rather keep working.
Idk. When I take breaks is very feelings-based, but now that I'm thinking about it, I'm gonna keep an eye out for patterns!
Hey Josh, love this ambitious plan and it's well thought-out! I really admire your thought process and self awareness in what works for you and what doesn't. All the best in carrying out this challenge and looking forward to reading your updates.
The goals you have for yourself are so clear, I like that you wrote it in a way that you can test against where your current levels are. Would be awesome to see the growth from where you started and how it changes in progress!
