Stage 2, Day 10,
I'm convinced that if I can upgrade my laptop, I can optimize my workload and increase my productivity by over an hour a day. Probably even two hours a day. No joke. There are simply so many hiccups and frictions when it comes to loading webpages, that a task that could have taken me 10-15 minutes took me 40-45 minutes. Jumping from word to word in my online language reading website takes about 1-2 seconds per word, when it could easily become 0.25 seconds. In other words, I need a laptop that works faster than my brain does.
Also, I'm of the opinion that each of these little hiccups cause a mini-frustration within me. Built up over time, it can become a source of stress. I look forward to seeing how a fast machine can improve my mental health (not that it's in jeopardy to begin with).
