This is an everything thread for all stuff 2022. You can post your daily goals, end-of-the-day updates, weekly targets or any weird thing you use to measure your progress. You can put into words & post the soul-sucking sadness that is threatening to devour you & your productivity. You can write what made your day & let others experience the happiness too, at least vicariously. This is a thread to pick each other up. This is a thread to keep each other accountable. This is a no-judgement zone.

“This is one more piece of advice I have for you: don't get impatient. Even if things are so tangled up you can't do anything, don't get desperate or blow a fuse and start yanking on one particular thread before it's ready to come undone. You have to realize it's going to be a long process and that you'll work on things slowly, one at a time.”
— Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

And the least you want is show up again on a public community of hardworking people who are ticking targets off their to do list. But i have nowhere else to go. So, i am back here, and will try to compensate for whatever time has been wasted.

Have been forgetting to post targets since 2 days, mostly as I clubbed the targets for 2 days as few of them were ambitious. Could do the GS, Optional bits. Haven't touched the newspaper since 2 days, will do the backlogs today.
1. Newspaper backlogs
2. Agri, land reforms value
3. Finish what remains of sept monthly
Some of the newspaper backlogs remain. But was able to do the rest.
1. Whatever remains of agri + eco value add
2. Optional - IL + awp
3. Newspaper
Changed my targets half way through the day. Done with eco and agri almost and didn't touch optional today. First half was great, but most of the second half was spent being distracted over nothing. :P But, glad won't have to do Eco tomorrow.
1. Social justice/Polity value add (if possible)
2. Optional - High priority
3. Newspaper
Calling it a day. Figured that a few fringe sub topics and issues of gs 3 were left to be done properly. So prioritised that and got them done. Tried to shift to optional but friction was too high, post the gs 3 session, so lagged quite a bit.
Will try to have a better day tomorrow, targets roll over.
