2024 Resolutions and how to achieve them

Another year another list of resolutions of things to improve and things to let go of.

There is no time like right now. You certainly don’t need to wait for the beginning of a new year to better yourself. Or get the things done you have been putting of. It’s January so we might as well use the extra motivation to get things moving.

What I want to change this year and how I am planning to implement it:

1. Boost my productivity and procrastinate less
To keep myself on track I started using Wise Dash.
Wise Dash is a browser extension that allows me to see my to do lists, calendar events, Jira, Trello and every other app I can think of all in one spot. The best thing is that it’s not on a website I have to open but on my new tab. If I am clicking a new tab to procrastinate watching YouTube I will get reminded instantly of what I told myself I would be doing instead.

2. Cycle 3 times per week
I really love cycling but struggle to make time for it. This year I will go for a ride at least three times every week and track these on Strava. The cool thing with Wise Dash is that I can see my activity right on the dashboard as well so that little nifty extension is gonna help me with two of my resolutions!

3. Make the bed every morning
My desk is in the bedroom and a clean and tidy workspace and space around me helps me to stay focused, be productive and get tasks done. I have set up a to do list on Todoist that I can tick off every morning to ensure I stick to this task and get reminded. Wise Dash let’s me integrate my Todoist lists right on my dashboard as well so once again: Wise Dash is my recommendation to stick to your resolutions in 2024.

Happy 2024 — Cheers!

Tools like Page Speed Insights and Google Lighthouse are great for providing advice for front end performance issues. But what these tools can’t do, is evaluate performance across your entire stack of distributed services and applications.
