5  Today i changed slightly how i use my digital infrastructure, mostly task warrior and it led to me being way more productive. I'm trying to follow the GTD method more closely and am actively going through and dating my tasks so i have the next 3 or 4 days set up so i can come home from work and knock out the things i wanna do. the problem with productivity isn't a lack of time, but instead a lack of focus. If i can solve that I'll be much better able to achieve all the things i want to.

7  however because of this, my web browser has been exploding with tabs. similar to how im focusing my time, having fewer distractions would help. i think my biggest one by far is mastodon now. since slack has been dead lately (woah that's a good story to tell) i mostly go between masto and hn. i sometimes go through my rss feeds but for one the gif viewer is broken on my phone and going through my browser is way too distracting on desktop so i havent been checking that lately. I have suuuch a huge dump of data just across the board and more constantly available but also coming at me. I need to trim the fat for sure.

9  finally today work wasn't that bad. there was actually shit going on and it felt nice to have some stuff to do and feel like I'm helping even if i made a few mistakes. but I'm learning and helping. I've also decided to be more productive with my time there and instead of mindlessly checking hn all the time, I'm going to try and do things i actually want to. so I'm bringing my laptop and working on stuff.
