The last thread ended with me quitting my job to decompress & try my hand at trading. My two-year anniversary is coming up in February and I'm still job-free. I haven't been able to achieve consistency in trading, but I have matured/grown so much as a person that I'm eternally grateful that I took the time off, and I'm content w/ this chapter in my life as it comes to a close.
My earmarked 'sabbatical' funds will last up until two-year anniversary in February, so my plan is to focus on trading until then, and then start to transition towards reestablishing my Data Analysis skills and starting my search for a new job. Generally, in this thread I also plan on covering everything from analyzing random datasets, to using Linux, to self-hosting docker containers, and everything in-between.
About an hour ago, a woman I've been seeing for about two years just ended things. We weren't bf/gf since I stubbornly didn't want to settle down, yet she was easily the most consistent person in my life in that time period outside of my best friend, It definitely stings. I've fallen back on being in these streets as much since becoming unemployed, and navigating that territory will also be a point of interest in this journal.
Lastly, there's deliberate practice. It's the popular theory that you can grow faster at anything by targeting your weak points, reflecting on the feedback as well as best practices by the pros, & then making adjustments and repeating that cycle until you're an expert. That's the theme that will tie all of the disparate parts of this journal together.
