Wins & Accomplishments For The Week
Productive Conversations and Planning:
Work wins, new challenges, new struggles, and new lessons. Too many to mention in any detail, and I try to keep work as a limited part of my reflection - incredibly important, but not all defining of experiences week to week.
Completed the OSHA 10-hour course
Calculated some project costs and scope for next leg of garage and additional projects. Picked up additional lumber for that next step (2nd roof)
Checked in on family members and installed pond dock posts.
Mistakes & Lessons Learned For The Week
Not enough rest resulting in a migraine. The signs were there to sleep more, but I ignored them for relatively unproductive additional work or entertainment hours and paid for it. Feeling of exhaustion setting in, sleep more.
Projecting negative emotions. Coinciding with the the above. Probably the biggest indicator of a need for rest. Ironically opposite of the below optimism bias.
Habits
Breathwork 7/7
Exercise 2/4
Write 5/7 (bullet points and catch up day FTW here)
Mood
Cognitive Biases: Optimism Bias, Confirmation Bias, Recovery Bias
2/3 I am happy with! Optimism bias is something I've long worked towards, and recovery bias is resiliency. Resiliency and optimism are a fantastic combination. Now, to focus on confirmation bias - or attachment to pre-existing beliefs and seeking to validate rather than challenge them ( I need to be challenging beliefs rather than seeking to validate).
Gratitude
Valuing relationships, appreciating positive aspects of work and home, and for well-being.
