Day 4 of 33

With every day, this challenge is starting to feel more and more realistic.

However it’s still super easy to fail on something simple, like not taking a photo.

Today’s photo is probably the least effort one so far.

I’m putting a couple things up for sale, one of them is my beloved Steam deck.

I find it fascinating, how just a few days ago, it was this beloved toy that I absolutely adored and today my perspective is — I must sell it, it’s such a crazy time sink.

I noticed that playing games for me is super fun, but is actually tiring. Sure, it can feel exhilarating, achieving some complicated tasks and getting some dopamine rewards, but after an hour or two spent gaming, I am not fresh as a daisy and ready for whatever life may bring, I feel like resting.

And honestly, right now, I just don’t want things in my life that are draining and bring no benefit.

I have so many things that require my energy that games are simply not worth it for me right now.

I wanted to do some SwiftUI coding today, but it turns out that I don’t have the latest simulator downloaded, so that kind of blocked me from doing so.

But that’s actually good, cause I remembered I had the codecademy subscription and I went through a few lessons there, very productive day!

Also want to mention this thought, hopefully I’ll expand on it at a later date: just knowing that I have to journal today, no matter how little, makes me think about the things I do a lot more. As I know I’ll be accountable for my actions upon this time of reflection.

Hard to understate how critical that is to me.
