I kinda just go off a combination of vibes and thoughts and prayers 🤷‍♀️ Every month I tell myself to do better for those exact reasons, but I haven't yet.

I do it daily. Never understood how you can remember stuff you did a week ago. I don't remember what I had for breakfast yesterday. I guess people just make shit up??

Alot of firms mandate you release weekly or else no bonuses.

I generally do my prior days billing first thing in the morning. It is my way of activating my brain for the day. And to answer the original post, when I let my billing slide and had to do a few weeks at once, oh, mental exhaustion!

I definitely felt this. Got sick of it so have been forcing myself to do it daily. Much easier in the long run

My firm requires us to release time weekly. I record my time as I go but I don’t release until the end of the week. I have to clean up entries and choose the right codes. It’s such a pain to do and takes me a couple of hours every Sunday 🫠🫠

Time recorded daily as I go along, best way to keep track, and released COB. But I might not get the billing code right every time. If the narrative is good enough it shouldn't matter. As for actual billing end of every month, always a hiatus after that.

Definitely the case for me!!

Hi Guys,

Not a check-in, need some help and guidance. So I am 26 years old guy, weight is 76kgs. But I look like my weight is around 85kgs (that's what my friends told me).

I want to lose weight and fat, target is between 65-70kgs.

I was thinking to do jump rope and do some strength training at home (I have dumbbells) and eat little less.

Please advise what routine should I follow to lose weight and fat? Is jumping rope enough to achieve the target?

Thanks a lot. ❤
