🔁 5.5% Closer: Returning Again and Again

This past week wasn’t perfect.
But it was different.

When I wrote my last post, I had finished only 9% of my bootcamp, a number that felt both small and heavy. Today, I’m at 14.5%.

That’s a 5.5% shift.

It may not sound massive, but to me, it’s everything.
Because it wasn’t about pushing through a perfect schedule, it wasn’t about proving anything.
It was about returning, again and again, even when I fumbled.

There were days I didn’t do what I planned.
There were moments where I felt the familiar voice of shame say, “Here we go again.”
But this time, I didn’t spiral. I didn’t give up. I just… came back.

That’s the real change.

And the fact that it’s only 11 a.m. as I write this?
That means there’s still so much space in the day for code, for rest, for growth.

So this post isn’t to say “look how much I did.”
It’s to say: I kept going. I kept coming back. I’m still here.

And maybe, that’s how this version of me is born.

See you next week.
