Top challenges, losses, roadblocks

• challenges: how to peak, exponential growth, i really wish there was a chart to measure my growth (translation: I believe I really wanted to make progress and grow but I wasn’t efficient enough and didn’t have enough time and wasn’t really going anywhere and was stressed)
  • past worldview (normal high schooler chillin) is forever gone, never again will I be bored because there will always be something to do, but I don’t know what to do
• roadblocks: COVID :’( can’t go to labs, time management
• losses: Algonquin, stratford, bridge in math class, TOPS night? integrity for tests lol
• priorities for the break: FOCUS, deca, hosa training, music thing (what was this), codeHS, article-writing, discover how I work and how to build structure/ systems to work for me

Life Lessons

• authenticity breeds confidence (now explainable through feedback cycles)
