Manic Monday - What is your focus this week? - 13th October 2025

[Dopious]

New week, new opportunities to get things done.

Share a goal you have for the week, big or small, it doesn't matter.

It could be:

• Something you want to get done with
• A new initiative you want to take on
• A habit you want to stick to
• An idea you want to concretize or put into motion

Writing it down increases the chance that it will actually get done
Sharing this makes it even more likely that you will actually do it

What is your goal this week in your business?

Last of summer stock needs to be packed up and placed into retail packets.

Sort out this new trade customer (that's on me to do)

This week is just manic processing still really, next week and week after will be quieter as packers are finished for 2-3 weeks so will have more time to think.

I've not sat down and written anything for my journey thread either this month yet so will figure out some time and blast out a good few hours of content.

I’ve got this link project I need to complete this week for my buddy and I've promised I will

I’ve kinda been AWOL the past couple of weeks : D

I've not sat down and written anything for my journey thread either this month yet so will figure out some time and blast out a good few hours of content.

Looking forward to it : D

There's no polish embassy in Sri Lanka, only consulate but I think I found how to get documents for our visa applications from polish gov site. The thing is my account on this site was linked to my bank account (yep, the one that they closed because I moved to another country ) so I'm working on how to retrieve the account and make another one for my sister. So yeah, I will be logging in to Poland .

I'm also traumatized after watching very sri lankan yt video about Sri Lanka visas... Dude started recording while he was still setting stuff up (and didn't edit that out), there was palm tree in the background, looong intro about tourist visas that I had to forward (I get this is tourism focused country, but for god's sake, this was supposed to be about resident visas), then he asked people to subscribe and watch ads so he can support local economy by buying coconuts , then he started to wish everyone happy Vesak, Poya and all holidays imagineable (Jesus, I want to get to visa requirements) and then he said it's crazy complicated so it's better to get a visa agent for $100. Okay, that's fine, someone tried to charge me more than 10 times more. There was more of this video but I stopped watching for now . Ah, of course Poland embassy is in another country, consulate doesn't have a phone number listed and Sri Lanka Immigration Office in my city doesn't respond to the phone. Which somehow doesn't surprise me because the one in the capital doesn't either so it's within the norm in Sri Lanka . Ah yes, immigration lawyer meeting this weekend. Maybe I'll at least know if I qualify for any visa at all and what are the requirements because when I was in Immigration Office in Battaramulla irl they didn't give me ANY information on requirements, where to get the forms, etc.

I checked multiple countries and by now I have a general idea on documents that most countries want so I'll try to get them, will be good both for Sri Lanka and if we have to move our asses out. Jeez, why I didn't go to Paraguay like that other freelancer that had the same client like me.
