100 days of productivity: day 1, feb. 21, wednesday

Not having the best start to this challenge however I have been waiting for a good day to start it and it seems like it'll never come if I keep waiting for it without making an effort. I don't need a perfect start, I don't need to wait to start on the first day of a week or a month, I just need to start somewhere. I've wasted too much time worrying about how far behind I am, how I can only do so little in a day. If I want to change that I need to start now and start with something. It is better than nothing. Hopefully by the end of this challenge I'll be at a better place with self discipline.

🏋🏻 worked out at the gym for about 1,2 hours

👨🏻‍💻 prepared couple things to motivate me to keep up with the challenge

Queerness, by its very nature, changes the world around it. This is not a simple sentiment but a provable fact. Simply by existing, queer people are making history. While there have been queer radicals, anarchists, and activists who have chosen to dedicate their lives to the betterment of the world,
