I Tracked Every Habit for 30 Days—Here's What Actually Changed

Let me get one thing out of the way first: I didn't do this to go viral, or to become a better version of myself overnight, or because I read some aesthetically pleasing blog that told me to. I did it because I was slipping. Slowly. Quietly. Like when you're on a moving escalator, but it's going down and you're standing still. I'm Kunal. 23. Night shift CAD drafter. I sit in an office from 6:30 PM to 3:30 AM, mostly pretending to work while trying not to lose my mind. When you live like that long enough, the line between boredom and burnout gets real blurry. So I started tracking. Not because I wanted to change the world, but because I needed to feel like I still existed in it. Here's how it went down. The Setup No fancy apps. Just Google Sheets, a Notion dashboard, and a brain running on caffeine and chronic lower back pain. I picked 10 habits to track: Waking up before noon Not smoking Stretching for 15 minutes Drinking 3L of water 20 minutes of reading 1 new ...

Working the Night Shift: Productivity, Existentialism, and Office Ghost Vibes

Nighttime brings forth a different reality that emerges from slumbering humanity.  The fluorescent buzz guides your way while empty corridors turn into reflective paths and regular office environment turns into a mystical place.  The night shift worker's world combines productivity with introspection while the professional and profound elements start to merge together. 🕯️ The Night Shift Life: A Different Kind of Quiet Nighttime brings a unique type of silence which cannot be duplicated by day. The quiet during nighttime becomes more than a soundless environment because each small noise becomes meaningful on this silent background. My first nights at work I thought would bring me isolation. Solitude presented itself in an uncommon way. The nocturnal journey becomes enhanced through the constant wall clock ticking and building ventilation whir and sporadic distant siren sounds which serve as the night's companions. Workday hours force us to juggle numerous immediate tasks and ...

🧾 Why I Don’t Take EMIs (And Probably Never Will)

I don’t take EMIs. Not for phones. Not for bikes. Not even for the stuff I’ve wanted for years. Not because I’m rich. Not because I’m frugal.

It’s something I read once—years ago, somewhere forgettable—but it stuck to my brain like a moral law: “If you have to take an EMI for it, it means you can’t afford it.” And honestly? I’ve stood by it ever since. 📉 Why EMIs Feel Like Emotional Debt Here’s the thing I’ve noticed: It’s not just the money that EMIs take from you—it’s the joy . I’ve seen people buy something big on EMI—a phone, a car, a bike—and for the first few weeks, sure, they’re glowing. But then? The newness wears off. The product becomes just... a thing. And yet— the payments remain. Month after month, they’re still paying for something that’s no longer exciting. No longer special. Sometimes, even slightly annoying. That’s the p...
