Week 27 – Happy New Year 2021

2021-01-04 • 6 min read

This year's first blog is delayed by a day 😄 great 😖
Sorry for the delayed blog, I was busy reading and overthinking yesterday XD

There’s a small gift for y’all somewhere in the end of the blog, so continue reading 🤫

My job interview was supposed to happen way before, and this blog was supposed to come out yesterday with the results
But as it turns out, life isn’t that predictable.

But now I am finally writing this after the interview:
I am glad I did not publish this blog yesterday and kept you all in anticipation…

There’s a saying that goes like “don't count your chickens before they hatch” and in the last 2 weeks I did not only count them, but I fed them grazed em and raised an entire farm in my head.

Personal Highlights

  • Since this year started midway through the week, I am going to skip my habit stat sharing ritual for this week and keep this blog short like the last one.
    However if you want to know my final week habit progress you can check the spreadsheet that I embedded last week.
    PS: everything went downhill
  • The past week all I did was overthink about my job meeting and made sort of imaginary convos in my head that I would say and convince them to gimme a high salary XD
  • Also I wasn’t able to read anything throughout the week as my mind kept drifting but yesterday I completed an entire book [110 pages long] and guess the book ………

It was Negotiate like an Avalonian: An arsenal of techniques to negotiate better salaries, deals and funding! XD

I mean its not everyday that you get to read a book by the CEO of the company that you are going to apply for, on negotiating salary.

Update:
The book that I read, did not come in any use.

Thoughts from the past week

I stopped working on music mashup video midway through the week because I got into editing the sample video.
