JOURNALS
A nice relaxed day today, keeping to the calm and steady pace I was aiming for this week. I kicked things off by watching a few YouTube videos for some inspiration-always a good way to start the morning. Dived into editing the newsletter video shortly after. Even though video editing is usually an afternoon task, I decided to break my routine and get a head start in the morning. Tried to keep it straightforward, just cutting out the gaps and mistakes.
By midday, I was checking the export of the video to make sure there were no syncing issues. Everything seemed to be in order, which is always a relief. While I didn’t actually get around to experimenting with the thumbnails today, I did download the Affinity Suite as a step towards moving away from Photoshop. Planning to dive into that tomorrow—should be a fun learning curve.
Had a Zoom meeting in the afternoon, which took up a good chunk of time. These will be regular Wednesday afternoon fixtures from now on, so I need to plan my days around them better. They eat into my day a bit, but at least I’ll know to carve out more focused work slots before and after.
Managed to finish the editing on the newsletter video. Happy about that. However, I ran out of time fiddling with the thumbnails, which nudged that task to tomorrow’s list. Even though the tutorials are still unwritten, I didn't stress too much about it. I decided today would remain calm and unpressured—just riding the flow.
Interestingly, I didn't have a headache today. Maybe steering clear of the laptop in the evenings and ditching Pepsi Max has helped. You never really appreciate the absence of a headache until it's gone. Evenings are becoming more relaxing; no work, just a bit of downtime which has been refreshing. Not fully confident I'm getting a ton more done during working hours, but the balance feels right.
That’s it for today. Didn’t touch everything on the list, but the pace felt good, and I stayed true to keeping things chill. Tomorrow’s another day to chip away at tasks—hopefully, I’ll get around to those thumbnails.
