########################################################## Navigating through the Long Haul ########################################################## - I need to just focus on getting better - no narratives attached. - Progress will take its due time. - Long term: How do I measure progress over a month? - Short term: What makes today productive? How much can I actually do? - Plans do need an end date. - On a topic: What is good enough? How long does it take to get there? - Handling turbulence: - Can I use it in my favour instead of fighting to save on fuel? - What can I still learn from these that is transferable? - If I have to survive a toxic workplace - Toughest: Stop caring about what happens at work. - See how to utilize work hours to my benefit. - Don't get fired. - If I have to grind through a topic which doesn't interest me - Toughest: Convince yourself that it's important. - Random exploration, structured deep dives, performance. - Go back to absolute basics if required. - Not giving my best shot is what I'd regret.
