Now
Updated April 7th, 2024, from my home in Ukraine.
1. Meal Planner app
I’ve found the idea that I need to create a startup. At least I have to try once in my life. And now - it’s time. I have a big idea, with a lot of small features. Now I’m working on MVC, so I can’t provide you with details. I need to learn React and Django for this. Quite a challenging task for System Programmer. And I love challenges. Hope they love me too.
2. Communication skills
I want to be heard, so I created a strategy to build up my storytelling and small-talk skills.
Storytelling
- Analyze stories based on the story circle (Storyworthy, On writing Steven’s King)
- Finish storyworthy (and create an article with new techniques)
- Create few stories about myself based on Story circle
- Tell this stories to my phone, then to my husbend, then into instagram
- Evaluate progress and create next steps'
Small talk
- Skimm questions before the events where small talk could appear (maybe copy it into the phone)
- If I am in the event - go and ask, even if it so scary
- When I feel more comfortable, describe all of this in form of the story
- At home: spend 5-10 minutes playing communication loop with myself. I can use question generator or noun generator.
Extra: Small talk learning it’s a good opportunity for story Triumph against distress
