Stage 2, day 16:
I feel like I have fallen into a rabbit hole during the last week. I saw an opportunity to contribute to my FOSS communication library and help others. This sub-goal did distract me away from MY main goal and it did turned out to be mostly a waste of time as the project maintainer isn't very receptive about receiving help, very argumentative, wants to have the last word all the time and kinda makes you feel like an idiot because he doesn't understand what you say.
imho, if you want to be at the head of a successful project beyond what is humanly possible to do alone, you need to improve skills to attract and keep people around to support you... I got the perfect example of what NOT to do to achieve that.
So overall, it was a bad idea.
And, I have fallen sick. A terrible flu. Because an old chinese elder man did bump into me few days before and with all the media attention on the Cov-19 pandemy, I did imagine the worse... I have been in bed, with fever, no appetite, totally knocked out and absolutely unproductive for the whole week...
what is done is done... now I feel better, it's time get back on the right track and continue what needs to be done to succeed.
