Saving the day with my cat

· Bernie Goldbach

A close-up of a gray fluffy kitten with blue eyes serves as the background for a digital clock, weather information, and app shortcuts on a smartphone screen.

My best days start with me saving my cat from her hours-long nighttime starvation. I look at her on my phone and get busy.

The cat in the image is animated. It plays behind the main focus points of my day: Obsidian, Claude, and Notion. If I tap into all three before 9AM I know I have traction for the rest of the day.

I need to become more productive by tapping the Daily Note widget under the eyes of the cat on my home screen. The Daily Note Widget leads to a checklist that I use to tick off items that make me productive. It’s important to have this kind of habit because without it, my brain becomes a noodle. I can hear James Clear yelling at me to buckle down and not let things slip.
