I had someone send me a 7z at work a few weeks ago and I got so elated that it wasn’t a zip! I did have to request IT to install 7zip but I’m so glad to have it installed now. It’s nice to see it being adopted more.

Having had both great and terrible work out days, I found what led to the good, enjoyable days was purely the mindset. HIIT on a stationary bike sucks, but I had some fun sessions when I turned it into a game. Weight lifting routines can be super boring, but changing from rep based to time based and seeing if you can crank out a few more reps without sacrificing form can make it fun.
It takes a lot to get into that mindset for me, but it’s possible and it makes a world of difference. Gamification of any task can introduce a challenge and give oneself a better purpose in the moment.
I’ve had a lot of success taking the rules that YNAB uses and applying to my own budgeting method. I recommend checking out Actual Budget if you’re capable of self-hosting and want a fancier software instead of a spreadsheet. The rules are key, though; pick a methodology/mindset you agree with and stick with it.
