I am the Emperor 🤘

Congratulations, @James! Hard work and perseverance pay off in dividends, especially once we’ve built up momentum. Keep up the great work! :tada::metal:

Already half way through my Python Basics course. This language is clicking for me rather quickly

Started an SQL course as well

Man SQL still confuses me, in terms of the actual queries/commands. I use PHP scripts to access some SQL Databases, and it’s hella cumbersome. I may run IGUP to help with SQL.

It is confusing. I will probably go through the course multiple times so I catch things I might have missed

For some reason the more extreme the music that I listen to while I work through coding courses the better I do.

You need to get some Gregorian Chants in there and maybe end the day with Enya

The Enigma album has plenty of the Gregorian stuff. That was his trademark for a while.

I am loving Emperor. If there was a title to make a man as resilient and stoic as possible its the New Emperor.

Like I said in a previous post not getting things done is not an option anymore most of the time. Often I don’t journal because I don’t know what to say. I just don’t. My mind and brain are more about figuring things out

Every day it becomes less and less of a struggle. To me it’s about creating the freedom to live my life. That’s all. In all reality that’s all I’ve ever really wanted.

That’s where I am a lot since running Emperor. I’ve been questioning myself over habitual behaviors I do.

What’s different this time is my heart’s becoming involved. It’s not just a mental change presently. It’s like…all of me.

So much of what I used to focus on feels like a gigantic waste of time now.
