Episode Summary by AI
I hit a wall tonight trying to use my podcast Notion database because I maxed out the free blocks. I’ll probably upgrade tomorrow to keep things moving. I mapped out my exact financial goal of $23,000 by October 8 and created a full visual tracker breaking it down to $172/day. I worked 10 hours total today, mostly for Brian, and shared frustrations with inconsistent communication from Mina. Also traded in my MacBook, vented about Apple Store service, and ended with thoughts on buying a Tesla Model S.

My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI
Today felt like a grind but a productive one. I’m locked in on hitting that $23K and this tracker I built helps me actually see the path. It’s frustrating that I have to front the cost for Notion and that Mina’s been MIA lately, but I’m not letting it slow me down. Honestly, I’m proud of how much I’ve gotten done. Still, I’m tired. I just want my systems working, my money flowing, and a clean Tesla in the driveway.

What I Did Today - Summarized by AI
Worked 10 hours between Brian and Mina, finalized and used my Notion financial tracker, traded in my MacBook at the Apple Store, researched the Feynman Technique, vented about poor Apple Store service then praised great service(LOL), brainstormed daily income goals, and daydreamed about buying a Tesla Model S.
