I guess I even typed out some messages, but have no recollection. Regardless though, I got my 100 cards in along with 1 hour in the i+1 room, so at least it wasn't a complete loss.

Its these days though that toughen your character... ESPECIALLY that you made i+1 moves forward in spite of it all. Very cool!

Was just with M+S in the i+1 Room, is definitely a huge help to WATCH them study the Python deck, to be able to give feedback (if I am around) in live time. Its almost like a flipped classroom but being at home studying WITH them! Not to mention it makes me want to study Python...

Sure we aren't at your level and its going to be a slow pace as we tediously cover every basic point before moving on, but hopefully with all that extra practice it really sticks this time! (Since I have "learned" so much different programming syntax in various languages over the years but never to the mastery degree of say Spanish or Chemistry).

Also, I have been editing around some code from GitHub which is a programmable Pomodoro Timer https://www.acaexplorers.com/explorers/timer/ I think we could work this into the i+1 Room, Gold, etc. and it would also be a cool thing to offer use for us as Life Coaches, for ourselves and our students! I say Pomodoro because that is the standard, but I definitely want to play around with other ratios and really find some kind of principle we can use that isnt as random as just 25:5 without rhyme or reason.

Oh that's really cool, definitely better to do some study while teaching than mess around and do other stuff. Taking things slow with programming isn't a bad thing, I also have the added benefit of having worked with quite a few different languages over the years, so while I am not super proficient in them, I am at least familiar with many of the concepts. I really like the idea of being able to have a built-in timer to help me out, as I will often times forget to set one, but there are also times where I would much rather continue working once I have gotten started as any distraction will result in me not getting back on track without significant difficulty. Today I managed to get 1.5 hours in the i+1 room and more than 100 cards, so I am making some headway. I revised a few cards and flagged a few, but still have plenty of other stuff to do. Gotta get through this python sooner rather than later so that I can focus on some website work.

Today has not been too bad, managed to get 260 cards studied and 26 fairly simple cards added with 2 hours in the i+1 room. Unfortunately I have yet to finish my programming practice problems and molec bio reading for the day.

I managed to get in my >100 cards again today along with some added and an 1.5 hours in the i+1 room, so I would say today was a pretty good day. I am looking forward to being able to use the smaller month-length tracker, hopefully I can get better at it and really start getting stuff done sooner rather than later.

I got 1.5 hours in the i+1 room today along with 161 cards studied and 16 added, so not too shabby. I also hope to get some more reading in, but it is starting to get a little late.

Today was not the easiest, I only managed to get on at around 4:20 in the morning and it was not easy to concentrate, do not recommend. I got my hour in the i+1 room and my cards studied, but am not loving the timing. At least my pup seems to be doing better with the meds and food recommendations that they gave me, but I get to keep a close eye on him until at least Saturday night.

Yeah dude you definitely seem to crushing it in the i+1 Room! Way to go, definitely a help to have your presence in there supporting i+1 quality work at all times of the day and night!!!

Managed to get in 1 hour of i+1 room today and got 44 cards added, so not too shabby! Just need to eat lunch much earlier.

I got more than 100 cards again today along with a good number of added cards and a little more than 2 hours total in the i+1 room. It even looks like I will get to bed a little earlier tonight, so that's a good thing!
