@TariusNG I can say, I had a good one. Got an epiphany even but I slept at the office and couldn't meet up with everything I set for myself. And I started a fresh goal too
Before you hand over any piece of work, ask yourself one question: If this stopped on my desk and nobody else reviewed it, am I comfortable with the quality?
Because that is exactly how you should be working.
Think like the most senior person on your team. Think like the work ends with you. No one else is going to catch your mistakes. No one else is going to clean it up.
When you start working like that, you stop letting things slide. You stop submitting things you are not proud of. You start caring about the details from the beginning; not after someone points them out.
That is how you get fewer review notes. That is how people start trusting your work.
This week, produce the work that the most senior person on your team would produce.

Please get back to doing puzzles, sudoku, board games, crosswords, word search. Read long novels and watch long form videos.
Seeing my students and even my age-mates uncomfortable being cognitively unentertained is... something. Weโre losing patience with thinking deeply.
Calling a generation "lazy" is the easiest way to avoid fixing a toxic work culture. People aren't afraid of hard work, they are afraid of wasted effort. If the reward for high performance is just more stress, the only logical move is to opt out.
