Day 273: Week 40 Plan

status

Week 39

Goals

  • Life

    • ❌ Sleep before 12am at least 3 times

      • Waaaay too many nights where I stayed up until 4am
      • I got close to sleeping at 12am only once where I went to sleep at 12:30am

    • 🆗 Work out at least 3 times, do yoga at least once

      • Worked out twice (I’m defining working out as calisthenics/bodyweight training, not just any physical activity), ran twice, and didn’t do yoga so this gets an OK

    • ✅ Meditate for 20+ minutes at least 3 times

      • yeeee

  • Browserflow

    • ✅ Sync flows to Firebase

      • Got this working today and I’m freaking stoked about it

    • ❌ Allow sharing flows

      • Didn’t get to this yet

Reflection

I’ve noticed that I go through periods of high energy/motivation and low energy/motivation, and it feels like I’m entering another ~ CODE ZONE ~ (aka hermit coding mode). I’m barely looking at my phone or social media, and much of my time is spent working on Browserflow either at my computer or in my head. And it’s super fun!

I don’t feel that terrible about having epically failed my sleeping goal because I was often staying up to work some more, but I want to get to a point where I listen to my wiser self and go to sleep early so I can wake up early and work rather than passing out after squeezing out every last drop of effort.

Week 40

I spent the last few days integrating Firebase with my Redux setup, and I am so excited to take advantage of it. Previously, I had state synced across the extension using local storage, but now it’s seamlessly synced with Firebase as well so that any change made locally automatically updates Firebase and vice versa. I’m so proud of how well it works.

I’m especially excited to have built this plumbing because I know that it’ll make adding Firebase support to Intention waaaaay easier once I start working on it again. I feel like there’s only one final piece remaining — payments — before I have a full-fledged template that I can use (and even productize and sell) to spin up high-quality web extensions that take care of everything except for the business logic.

Last week, I was lamenting not being able to choose between improving Browserflow UX and working on the share functionality. Somehow, I was able to make significant progress on both and I’m feeling really good about where Browserflow is at right now.

I think I can finally get the gallery operational this week! It’s about time because I’ve been talking about building the gallery for like a month now.

I FEEL GOOD
