On Monday, I sent out my first newsletter for 2021! I talk about How to write a technical blog post.

Also surviving the week is a pretty big win. A very stressful week for those in the US.

Submitted my app to the DigitalOcean Hackathon. Really proud of it since I did the design, development, and writeup on my own over the past 3 weeks!

  1. I meditated for the whole week. 🕉️
  2. I did one problem from LeetCode/Codewars everyday. 🧪
  3. Solved some major bugs in my app and made it more stable. 🐛
  4. Started maintaining a roadmap for myself in Notion. 💯

2021 has been great so far 🤘 I hope I can do these things for the whole year.

"I finally launched my Youtube channel". I was always afraid of hitting that record 🔴 button(may be I was having fear of failing in public or I was mostly concerned about right tools like camera, audio system etc...)

I started with the topics I am comfortable with i.e. ReactJS. I have planned full MERN development series starting this week itself. Right now I am posting one video daily not sure, if I would be able to keep that momentum in long run to maintain quality.

If you are reading this post and interested in full stack development you might want to checkout my channel youtube.com/c/gulshansaini

Please subscribe to the channel if you find the tutorials useful.

I got picked to babysit my department 2 1/2 days a week while most of my coworkers get put on furlough full time. Kind of bitter sweet, but I'll be able to catch up on stuff that's important to me at work and work on my own projects more.

Finally managed to get a blog post published after a long gap. Then I published another.
