Played cricket today. I didn’t really get a good rhythm while bowling, but but someone out. Batting wise, I batted pretty well in the first innings - next step is to generate more power, but I think I’ve found my niche of rotating the strike. Also need to be playing on the front foot more, especially balls that are coming straight (don’t try to hit cross-batted shots for those).

Currently reading Eat that Frog 202006281345 - don’t think it’s as well written as some of the other productivity books I’ve read, but I think the main premise, which is that for tasks that you don’t really want to do, just pull off the bandaid quick and get the task over and done with, is a really important insight for me. I’m definitely guilty of wrapping up a bunch of smaller tasks (that aren’t really valuable to me) and leaving the task that actually has a longer impact to the last minute. Definitely one of the habits that I want to change. Therefore, after I write this journal entry, I’m going to work on EE until I’ve finished at least one total question. Then I’m going to take a break, and then keep working until I’ve solved two questions. My goal is to have half of the homework finished by today.

I did two questions! And watched a video for another one. I think I’ll do the last question right now, and then organize my schedule for the upcoming week (daily review?) and then go to bed.
