πͺ End-of-Day Reflections: Did I progress or regress today? Why? Progressed. Keeping the routine alive on a Friday is a win. Most people slow down; I kept the bidding going.
What one habit or action pushed me forward the most? The Friday Dua and the mental reset. It reminded me why I'm doing this challenge.
Where did you waste time or energy that I can cut tomorrow? Post-lunch lethargy. I need to get straight back into the "Bidding" zone after Jumma.
What could you improve tomorrow? Saturday is a huge day for Upwork (less competition). I want to send 4 high-ticket bids tomorrow.
