Had a morning customer call I wanted to dial into, so I'm starting the plan a bit late.

Played with event setup in my timer today. No functional progress. No change to event setup, either. It's a tradeoff, implementation-wise. I think for what I want to implement, using the global event-manager makes sense.
....
Mostly.
It makes sense that the events the timer itself currently emits stay events. E.g.
tick, clear, pause. As various arbitrary things may listen to those
events (e.g. youtube alarms, pomodoro trackers). But some events I throw
because I'm used to that pattern. But no event needs be thrown.
In any case, I think it's better to just go down the road I'm going down, and post-mortem my decisions instead of jumping around between different ones. So tomorrow, back to focusing on getting YouTube alarms in.

Anyways, I'm already five minutes into my end-of-day review. Consider the above my review of today. Well, part of it. There's more to say if I get to it.

Last month, I made a temporary friend, Jenna. She was cool. I'll never see her again. That's okay.
Also last month, I noted how there were posts in this here diary over a year old, and I was inspired to reflect onposts one year old, one month old, one week old, and one day old every day. I quite like this habit you decided to start, past me. Thank you for starting it (though you forgot about reviewing the previous week for a while).
"The 4 Disciplines of Execution is proving to be a great read in its own right, and ironically may be giving me the framework I need to make serious progress on projects." I believe it indeed gave me the framework I needed.
In fact, just today I thought about how it's great that I developed this habit of collecting data, but I had nothing to focus on improving using that data. 4DX explicitly points out why metrics need goals to drive them else they're really just fun facts. Right now, I have some simple meta goals (more pomodoro per day), and specific project goals. And I now reflect on that data I collect and use it to drive change in my habits to achieve the goals I want.
And it's pretty awesome.
Oh, yeah, last month I was also in SF.

Last week, I noted how cool it was to see the progress I've made in a week. Still cool. Not as much progress as last time.

Yesterday, I made a plan to go to work early to get some office-time to myself to be productive. I did get there early, but ended doing some bad browsing habits. Not sure why. Perhaps the morning productivity provides a warm-up, or maybe I actually have the habit of distracting myself at work? In any case, I addressed it and did a solid 6 pomodoros at work. A mere 2 pomodoro away from my long-term stable goal. Though, specifically, my goal will be 40 a week, with some variability allowed day-to-day.
Today was a good day, and I finally rolled over my 401k to Vanguard from my old work account.
In any case, it's time for some Overwatch.
