Recorded on: Monday, August 04, 2025, 10:19 PM

Episode Summary by AI

I reviewed the Unbed alarm device and its flaws like the non-recurring alarm system, app limitations, and overall clunky UX. I’m trying to eliminate the need for willpower in the mornings and wake up at 5:30 to reclaim productivity. Had a solid Zoom with Dawson, built more systems, learned how different devices impact layout, and identified new project additions. Also reflected on financial goals, future home life with Lexi, and being motivated by the desire to afford life upgrades.

My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI

I’m trying really hard to shift my mindset and habits so I can be better, sharper, more in control of my time. This Unbed thing is frustratingly flawed, but I’m hopeful it’ll still help. I’m also realizing just how much I want the freedom to buy what I want without worry. That desire to support Lexi, furnish our home, and eliminate debt is fueling me. I'm building something massive and I just want it to work.
