Call #Weird, call me SuperNerd, call me #nerd but I really enjoy doing this. Maybe it’s the #Learning, maybe it’s the #Fun, or maybe I’m a little more #Nerdy than I thought, but building out my #Homelab starting with #PiHole and working from there has been a wonderful experience. The documentation process has also been enjoyable; maybe it’s because it shows my work and what I’ve done as an #accomplishment

A quotation from Longfellow

Toiling — rejoicing — sorrowing,
   Onward through life he goes;
Each morning sees some task begin,
   Each evening sees it close;
Something attempted, something done,
   Has earned a night’s repose.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882) American poet
“The Village Blacksmith,” st. 7 (1840)

My attention meter needle swings in the right direction when I get my #notifications, I like getting notifications.

Then when I realize most of my fans are "#bots" my feeling of #accomplishment evaporates.

Interesting Wired piece by @clivethompson on getting things done and why we don't always. I used to keep a to-do list and I stopped. I used to use Workflowy and Remember the Milk for lists (both okay). But now, my email inbox is my to-do list for essential things. I'll write a tiny, brief to-do list on paper if there's a couple things I need to remember or do that day, but that's it. I don't keep a running one anymore. I don't find it useful.

Not what I'd planned for the day, but I just completed a note decoding the parts, sequence, and purpose of an ancient practice. Took me several days of mulling and research, plus about three hours of writing and reviewing.

No details, just sharing this sense of #personal #accomplishment.

The person on the right is holding a diploma, and they appear to be sharing a moment of joy and accomplishment.

I have an increasingly large list of projects I'm either working on or wanting to do. The worst part of me is when I start looking into a project for sheer curiosity, I inevitably start said project. This past weekend was the first time in a while that I actually completed a project. True, I got eye strain and a headache, BUT at least I got something done.

Today's card is 6 of Wands 

Any accomplishment, with or without an audience, is a victory.

Read this. Because if I have to go down feeling small about my life, I'm not going down alone.

I'm no Ruby programmer but every so often I think of "_why" and wonder what it takes to be(come) so dedicated and accomplished at anything.

3x catharsis: sitting tall after taking a dead-blow hammer and pipe-wrench and breaking free an old office-chair strut and replacing it for $25.

Pure accomplishment-therapy.

So, I'm super proud of myself for accomplishing a task!!!! I actually published a small chapbook. I know it isn't a big thing. But, for me, it was setting a goal and actually following through. So, even though a small achievement, I am super proud of myself.

Got the gas for the burner. Took the mini chainsaw out and wreaked havoc on some volunteer trees that had been ignored for too long, so they are *mostly* down. Still have a bit of work to do but arms were done.

I feel like I've accomplished a lot.
Just need to nag the hubby into being productive despite pain now.

My biggest #writer #accomplishment this year is this number. It was under 10k this time last year. Let’s see how it ends in 2023. #litrpg. #writerslife #writingcommunity #amwritingsciencefiction #amwritingscifi #amwriting #writersofMastodon #authorsofMastodon

I just whittled 200+ open chrome tabs on my phone down to 17

I need a gold star.
Or a massage.
Or some chocolate.

One secret trap of having #ADHD: we chronically underestimate how much we accomplished... until we find a random yearly to-do list from 2021 in our back pocket and realize we're basically superheroes (at least some days). #ADHDproblems #accomplishment
