Managing distractions. Solving your own problems.

Trying out my new shortcuts based posting workflow, while the dog flips out.

My current editor for coding is VS Code. Before that it was Sublime Text. Both of them have a lovely feature: The Command Palette.

By pressing a shortcut (cmd + shift + p by default), you get a search bar to search for any command the app offers. Sounds simple - and it is, but it is also very powerful. The most recently used commands bubble up to the top, it shows the location of the command in the menu and also the command's shortcut which helps to learn the actual way of triggering it via the keyboard.

Paletro brings all this power to any app on your Mac. 

You could have a downgraded version of Paletro for free by using the built-in search found in the help menu (cmd + shift + /), but this doesn't work in many apps anymore and it isn't as convenient or quick to use, in my experience.

Not a lot of training this week. Continuing to watch Zac George videos. Training is not a linear process. Walking a small day trail. Potty training has been going great lately.

We survived the sleep deprivation and went earlier to bed to make up for it.

I watched way too long TV last night. Uff.

A nice side effect of this experiment: Having a pretty solid evening routine.

Looking back, appreciating how my ideas around waking up early have changed throughout the experiment.

Down with the rain pipes!

I got my wish: no pees inside. Now I’m slightly sleep deprived.

Meeting badly handled dogs. Reactivity in dogs including our own. Nosework. Impulse training.

I believe I spotted another welsh corgi cardigan on mb: @hollie

Sleeping through the night is great, however I‘d rather wake up in the middle of the night and take the dog out then find a pee stain in the freshly cleaned carpet next morning.

What is it about the weekend that makes me feel more rested?

At the moment I publish three different microcasts (short, no-frills, solo podcasts):

1. The Early Riser - daily, around 2 minutes about sleep, waking up early and related things - Feed URL
2. The PuppyCast - weekly on weekends, around 10 minutes about my dog napu, training her, how she is growing up, etc. - Feed URL
3. LeadDev - whenever, my newest project, maybe 5 minutes (or a lot more) about my work and how I approach journeying towards maybe becoming a lead developer at some point in the future. - Feed URL

I love microcasts because I don't always have the time to write posts. But since I'm frequently walking the dog, I do have the time to record something. I love to reflect about my life, my goals and ideas and this is the perfect outlet for it.
