On average, the series of things that make up a typical day in my life are not as straightforward as I would want them to be. Some things that make up my day are routine things that I push myself to do each day while other things are stuff that just gets fit into my schedule and end up happening.

We will talk about that and it starts from when I wake up. I don't have a fixed time I get up and I don't usually wake myself up with an alarm. This leaves the wake-up window open and it's usually between 6 am to 8 am, depending on when I went to bed the previous night. Yeah! The "early to bed early to rise" statement is no joke.

The time I wake up also depends on the thing I have to start my day with. Once in a while, I set up several wake-up alarms that will ring me back to reality on a new day. However, this happens once in a blue moon and it's mostly when I have to go for an interstate travel the next day. That doesn't happen often so we won't be digging into it.

Once I'm up, I get to my working space and dive into work. I work hard, especially at the beginning of the day. I don't allow myself to be distracted by anything and I don't play around at that time of the day. I work from the moment I wake up until around 11 to 1, depending on several circumstances. I've been doing this since I started doing most of my work remotely and it has become a habit.

Once I pause work at that time, I step out of my working space and look around to do some stuff in real life. That moment is usually the time to go down and fetch water to refill my water containers. I also use that time to sweep, clean up the house, make a meal, and freshen up. I usually make sure whatever I cook is ready a day before so I wouldn't have to go outdoors and buy any food items.

I don't overwork myself during that first break of the day because I usually jump back to my creative work immediately after that. It's usually at this moment that I go reading and curating posts. I also try to come up with a post of my own.

Recently, I've been getting into X Spaces and there is no fixed time for some of them. I just jump into the ones that talk about Web3, Crypto, and stuff. I do that if the space is worth getting into it and if the scheduled time for it is something that suits my daily to-do. For the record, I'm beginning to pay attention to Web3 communities on Web2 and I want to build a presence there for the benefit of some plans I'm cooking up for 2024 and beyond.

I take break from the internet world every evening. I mostly do that between 6 pm to 9 pm. I use the early hours of the evening to go for some outdoors. I mostly go for a walk and I use that as an opportunity to casually get into the shopping malls and markets around town to restock my home with anything I need or anything I will be needing the next day. This is also the time I buy packaged meals or fruits which I will use for dinner.

I try as much as possible to not stay out too late at night. I don't enjoy night movements. The only thing that can make me stay outdoors beyond 9 pm are usually football games and I only take that hit when Liverpool is playing. That aside, I try to be home before 9 pm and I freshen up, eat something decent, and get back to the final phase of my work for the day.

The earliest I sleep each day is 1.30 am and that hasn't even happened since this month. I usually stay up till 2 am and there are moments when I stay up till morning. Don't ask what I'm doing. Haha.


That's basically how most of my days are spent and I don't have any complaints. I only hope the things I'm building will give me a very good future. By "good future", I mean a future where anything that can be gotten with money would be the least of my worries.
