Daily Journal - 2024-01-04
Day 4/30.
Morning Reflection:
Alarm woke me up at 6am. It was raining outside. I went back to sleep instead of getting in my morning routine. The rain continued all day.
Today's Focus: What is the main goal or focus for today?
Switched from data collection to working on front end development.
Midday Check-In:
Progress Report: What have you accomplished so far in your key focus areas?
Completed Tailwind CSS tutorial. Gained a good understanding of it.
Restarted work on the dashboard page.
Adjustments Needed: Are there any changes you need to make to your plan for the rest of the day?
Evening Review:
Accomplishments: What did you achieve today? This includes progress in work, exercise, personal projects, etc.
Learned and understood Tailwind CSS at a deeper level.
Tried using Tailwind CSS to create a dashboard layout with loading cards.
Challenges: What challenges did you face, and how did you handle them?
Don’t think a basic listing platform is the future.
Trying to see if we can incorporate new technology to improve it:
- VR tours of businesses
- AI powered business matching
- Blockchain transaction verification
- Crowdfunding integration
- Comprehensive business health dashboard
- Shopify Exchange marketplace shutdown due to overvaluation
- Gamification of investment
- Global business exchange program
- Dynamic regulatory compliance assistant
But I don’t know any of the above technologies. The most applicable seem to be blockchain transactions, AI matching, and a financial dashboard.
Have not determined what data to show on the listing page. But i would say it looked better than before.

Lessons Learned: Any insights or lessons learned from the day’s experiences?
Don’t skip meals.
Rush through tutorials, don’t watch every detail - don’t need to code along exactly.
Self-Assessment:
Adherence to Plan: How closely did you follow your planned schedule and goals?
New plan to follow the coding tutorial. Far from finishing one dashboard page.
Mind Set and "The Slide": Are you still locked in and focused? No regrets at the end of the year brother. Don't Slide.
Focus seems disappear. Forgot the taste of suffering and my ability to push through pain. Stopped exercising for almost a week. Hard to even finissh the 100 push ups and situps..
You can't take the easy path. You cannot do the easy small tasks. You cannot be distracted like a normal person. You cannot rest like a normal person. Stay FOCUSED!
Stay Focus Turned On?
Tomorrow’s Preparation:
Next Day’s Focus: What are the main goals for tomorrow?
- Define the data we want to see on the page.
- Code up the CSS
- link it to typesense
- add the searchbar.
Plan Adjustment: Based on today's experiences, are there any changes you need to make to tomorrow’s plan?
Eat simpler. Dont need cook so much.
Any other thoughts?
