I woke up today fully convinced this was going to be one of those legendary productive days. You know the kind. Clear mind. Big goals. No distractions. Main character energy. I even sat down early. which already felt like a win. Then I opened my laptop. Suddenly I remembered: • I should probably check one notification • Which turned into checking all notifications • Which turned into “let me just reply quickly” • Which somehow became a deep dive into things I did not come here to do At some point I realized I had: ✔ Opened 7 tabs ✔ Closed 0 tasks ✔ Refreshed the same page like it owed me answers ✔ Considered reorganizing my entire life instead of finishing one assignment And yet. I still felt productive. Because effort was made. Emotionally. Spiritually. Mentally. 😌😂 But here’s the plot twist: Progress doesn’t always look dramatic. Sometimes it looks like showing up. Sometimes it looks like trying again. Sometimes it looks like laughing at yourself and getting back to it. So if today you: • did a little instead of everything • started late but didn’t quit • learned one thing • or just stayed consistent That still counts. Now excuse me while I actually do the work I’ve been “preparing” for all day. Who else relates? 😭🙋‍♂️

I had this classmate who once went up to a hissing goose. He wanted to poke it with a stick. The goose charged him and pecked him so hard it broke his shin. He deserved it. It was then I discovered the power and majesty of the goose.
