This morning, I decided to change things up and traded my running shoes for the bike. I went out for a solid hour-long ride, and it was exactly what I needed.
The movement felt smoother on the body, and cycling gave me time to think while still getting in that early-day momentum. I might stick with the bike a bit more often now, especially on days when I’m not feeling up for the pounding of a run.
Work continues to be overwhelming lately, with a constant stream of meetings, and "decisions" to be made. It’s been incredibly draining, and I can feel my energy getting chipped away by all the interactions. Because of that, I’ve let a few things slide on the trading side—no deep analysis or big moves right now. But despite the low engagement, the volume has remained strong, which is a small but welcome win. It’s comforting to know that even when I’m off my game, the system is still holding up behind the scenes.
