🚀 Short Summary of the Day Today was a slower day, giving myself some much-needed downtime while still planning improvements for my platform. 📋 Detailed Progress and Achievements UI Design Research: • Spent time exploring UI designs for inspiration to give my platform dashboard a fresh, updated look. • While functionality will remain the same, I’m planning to refine the layout and visual aspects to better align with my vision for the project. Relaxation and Routine: • Took my dog on an extra-long walk, enjoying the time outdoors to reset and recharge. • Maintained my daily streak by completing my maths lesson for the day. Relaxation Time: • Spent the evening in bed watching 9-1-1: Lone Star, unwinding and letting my mind rest from the usual intense focus on work. 💭 Final Thoughts Though not much tangible progress was made today, I’m okay with taking a break. Sometimes stepping back helps with clarity and avoids burnout. I’m still on track to catch up with coding and projects over the weekend while keeping my mental health in check.

🚀 Short Summary of the Day Today was highly productive, filled with progress on my personal platform, the notJustDev hackathon project, and even preparing for the festive season for the first time in years. 📋 Detailed Progress and Achievements Personal Platform Updates: • Documented and finalised the latest updates, including integrating Convex and Clerk for custom authentication. • Planned the Notion integration to act as a dynamic template for documents and outlined the roadmap to incorporate features from my wellness app. Community Engagement: • Caught up on posts within the community, recording and sharing progress updates from the past few days. Having notes written down beforehand made it much easier to compile everything. Hackathon Progress: • Worked for 4 hours on my Invoice Generator app for the notJustDev React Native hackathon. • Utilised Expo and Expo Go on my iPad for testing and development, which has been smooth and efficient. • Though I’m a little behind, I’m confident I can catch up over the weekend, as the hackathon spans the entire month. Daily Life and Reflection: • Took my dog for a walk and prepared the house for the holidays by bringing down the Christmas tree from the attic. • This will be our first proper Christmas with a tree in 11 years, marking a significant step forward in celebrating the season while honouring my dad’s memory. The decade since he passed away has been extremely painful, but we’re finding ways to celebrate while honouring his memory. Other Highlights: • Watched my team’s emphatic 5-1 victory—a fantastic result! • Relaxed in the evening with episodes of 9-1-1: Lonestar before heading to bed. • Completed my daily maths lesson to maintain my streak. 💭 Final Thoughts It’s been an emotional but fulfilling day. Progress on my projects felt great, and reviving the Christmas spirit after a decade has brought a bittersweet sense of closure and joy. Looking forward to continuing the momentum with my work and embracing the festive season.

🌟 Short Summary Today started on a positive note with progress on my platform, but unfortunately took a difficult turn as depression settled in. Still, small wins like completing my maths lesson and connecting with a friend gave the day some bright moments. 🛠️ Detailed Progress and Achievements Platform Work: - Spent a few hours working on my personal platform. - Successfully implemented Clerk with Convex, following Sonny’s coaching call instructions. - Continued customizing the JWT template to meet specific requirements. Doctor’s Appointment: Had my weekly mental health appointment, which went well. Talking about my thoughts and emotions felt freeing, and I learned more about myself in the process. Social Interaction: - Bumped into a friend at the shopping centre on the way home. Spent about 30 minutes catching up, which was refreshing and enjoyable. 🐾 Daily Routine - Walked my dog early in the morning. 🐕 - Completed my daily mathematics lesson, which provided a small sense of accomplishment despite the challenging day. 🧮 🔮 Looking Ahead I’m hoping tomorrow brings more clarity and energy. My goal is to continue improving my platform and reconnect with the recruiter I missed today. ✨ Final Thoughts Mental health days are tough, and today reminded me how unpredictable emotions can be. While I struggled with depression in the latter half of the day, I’m proud of the small victories—progress on my platform, a meaningful appointment, and taking care of myself. Here's to a better tomorrow. 💙
