W43 and 44 2023

2023 Oct 16 - 29 • Year progress: 82%

Highlights

• Published my first article on this website: Overcoming My Procrastination. It's the start of a new habit I want to build: writing detailed reflections.
• Went to the gym three times, which is pretty good considering my Istanbul trip and team retreat.
• Caught up with the Upcoach team in Bodrum from October 22 to 28. So good to see everyone face-to-face again!
• 100th Birthday of the Turkish Republic
• Launched a new Quotes section and a Random Quote feature on my site. Every time I update the site, it automatically pulls in quotes from my entries. Planning to do the same to the external links I share.

Weekend

• Had an awesome family breakfast and watched the SOLOTÜRK team do their thing over Bodrum Castle.
• Cheered on my daughter in her first volleyball match with her school team. Go team!

Review

It's been a socially packed couple of weeks. Being around lots of people can wear me out, but I'm learning to be okay with that. Looked at my to-do list and realized not much matched up with my big goals. Time to refocus on what really matters.

Progress, not perfection, is what we should be asking of ourselves.
