Night Shifts and Small Wins
I’ve fallen a few days behind in the Bootcamp. The truth is, I’ve been working 12-hour night shifts every single day, almost without rest. Private security is exhausting work — physically and mentally — but for now, it pays the bills. It allows me to invest in useful tools and, sometimes, small things that make the journey easier.
In the Bootcamp, I’m currently taking my first real steps into CSS — selectors, attributes, and core fundamentals. Even when I recognize some concepts, I refuse to skip them. This time, I’m building strong foundations. No shortcuts. No rushing.
To stay consistent, I’ve been tracking my learning streak in Lifeofdiscipline.com Watching those small red boxes fill up day after day gives me a quiet sense of progress. It’s not dramatic, but it’s real.
I’m also improving my workspace. I recently added a HomePod mini to my 2014 Mac mini after damaging the internal speaker months ago. It’s a small upgrade, bought second-hand at a great price, but it feels meaningful. Every improvement brings me closer to the environment I want to grow in.
At the same time, I’ve started focusing on my health. I’m entering a weight-loss phase: walking more, doing push-ups and planks before bed, eating cleaner, and drinking more water. I’ll track everything using MyFitnessPal and my smartwatch.
Nothing extraordinary. Just steady movement forward. Step by step.
