- Learn to Type “Colemak”
I decided to type differently. I regretted it, because I could no longer type on most keyboards (No one warned me that my brain could only keep one way to type!). Still the experience of putting everything in the Atomic Habits book in action was satisfying.

It is a software that cancels noise, really, really, well. It made my calls inside a Starbucks-slash-zoom-disco sound incredible.
I do know why I have to look back. I tend to get stuck. Putting themes around the past, writing about it, is like mixing all the crumbs & bits, bake cakes and pies out of them, and devour them. Then I 💩, and move on.
