2026 Goals Review #8

Image
  Sleep between 12AM - 1AM every day. While I think sleeping early is important but it's been hard to try to sleep early after experiencing a few times of sleeping late again. It's easy to get back into the momentum of a habit I had for a long time than to persist on something I am trying to achieve.     I really do need to look into my schedule and also take note of what classes I'll be taking before signing up so that I can allocate enough time to finish everything I want to do and still be able to sleep at these timing.  It's so crazy cause I thought I slept earlier on some days but I guess I have exceeded 1AM every day else. time to do it differently in September I guess.

Atomic Habits James Clear

 Rating 4.8/5 It's already a recommended book everywhere so I'm not sure why you need to read another review about it but here's my take anyway. I love that the book gives clear summary of whatever it's trying to impart to you for forming habits. By the end of the book, you will see them reiterate the 4 Laws so much that it will be imprinted into your mind. (Though you can also easily forget about it after awhile especially if you don't practice it. So I do recommend that you keep the 4 laws written somewhere.) Suggestions are actionable and it does seem like it would work. Stories are a bit long winded. some examples seem to have cross over into different laws making it a little boring. Also, this book is very research heavy. lots of references at the end. And the way they actually have a website and they advertise on the book. No wonder this book is so widely known and recommended read. I'll also recommend you to reread the book since reading it one time m...

2026 Goals Review #7

 Sleep between 12AM - 1AM every day. This didn't really happen cause I keep thinking it doesn't matter. But after a few days of sleeping at 4AM, I think it does matter. I do know I need to sleep before 1AM but once it hits past, I'm like fk it. 

Understanding our muscles by Lucy Beevor

Rating: 3/5 (Good introductory reference) If you're looking for an easy, highly visual entry point into human anatomy, this is a solid pick. It keeps things simple and relies heavily on diagrams and pictures rather than dense scientific text.

Project management for the unofficial project manger (Updated and Revised edition) Kory Kogon | Suzette Blakemore

Rating 4 out of 5 I finally finished this! It’s a very practical, digestible guide for anyone who finds themselves managing projects without having "Project Manager" in their official job title. While I’ve wrapped it up, it’s definitely a book I’ll keep on my shelf to reread specific sections as needed.
