Monday musings

I got to the office just before 7:30am today which may be a record for a Monday. I’m not a morning person and have never really been one, but unfortunately having a kid makes sure you’re up at the crack of dawn every morning.

It’s been a struggle for me, but it hasn’t been all that bad. It does feel incredible being productive in the mornings and starting my days off right. My days feel a lot longer as I’ve had a full day by the time Noon hits. That’s much different than our past where on the weekends we’d try to sleep in sometimes to 9am.

This isn’t rocket science, but I’ve felt a lot better with everything recently these past 5 days or so as I feel that my sleep has gotten back to a decent spot. I’m more positive and I hit the ground running in the mornings versus slogging through. I’ve just got to be deliberate with my sleep nowadays.

On the markets - it’s almost the end of the quarter which means that it’s time for me to review my personal balance sheet and figure out if I need to make any adjustments. It’s always a lot more fun to do it when the market goes up then when it goes down and like almost everyone else, my net worth is going to be less than it was at the end of 2024.

On the work front - we have 2 weeks until the end of the month and we have a big push so we can start the year off strong. I need to stay laser focused and grind it out for a couple weeks and then make sure to take some time off to rest and recover.
