I really am him, “hello.” I am just built different like that. Holy cow dude. I literally just created a whole app by myself. I just made my younger self so proud. Holy shit dude I actually am him. It is a very simple app, but it still took effort and prior knowledge on how to build it. You login or signup, then you add workouts. Each workout has sets, reps, and weight. Once you submit it, it goes into your own personal account. Which may seem easy but that was one of the hardest parts like, “whatttt.” I am so good at researching as well. Like it took me a while to create this app. Mainly because of the amount of research I had to do. The main problem was relationships between the data types. It is pretty self explanatory, but once I changed one thing, I had to go back and change a few more. It was pretty tedious, but it was really fun. Also, I feel like a gained some new knowledge and another skill you know. I can know make apps for people. Oh my god, I can make apps for other people. So now I have my quizlet business, and app creation business as well. Holy I am actually so happy right now. I have to skills that allowed me to monetize my creations. Both of these creations were first thought in my brain. Then, I turned those thoughts into reality. “Wow,” I am actually so amazed with myself right now. Both of these projects also only took one day. Maybe I need to take on more challenging projects that will take longer. Or, I could take more small ones that will develop my self-confidences and my asset column. For, technically both of these can be assets. I just press play on my computer and I could make money while I am asleep. Damn, I really am just different like that. Maybe I should have business cards for each of my businesses. One for my quizlet and one for my app creation business. I would probably charge a lot for my app creation though. I wonder if I could add ads to my apps. I check that out right now, but for now I am just so excited that I actually created an app. I, Jorge Garza, have created a functional and working app that provides value to people. I mean that is the most important part right. Providing value to people. Maybe I will publish it, but the only thing is money. I wouldn’t gain anything back if I spent a certain amount a month. That was a really fun experience though. I really enjoyed creating that app, and solving problems on my own. That was really cool. Maybe, I will further develop it by making the graphics a little bit better. But, I understand I shouldn’t try to perfect it you know. For, then I would keep on going until I don’t stop. That was also one of my goals, to not try to get perfect, but to get it working. For, I usually get so caught up in trying to make everything look perfect. And, that is what usually messes me up sometimes. So, I decided I should just try to finish it. And, know that I finished it I want to create more. It was actually so fun. Maybe, I’ll create some simple apps for my favorite youtuber’s. As Ali Abdiel told me to you know. I just need more ideas, and I could be making apps like crazy. Maybe, I’ll try harder things. Ok so what was I gonna do, I’ll just read over this once I am finish. But yeah, I created an app today. That provides a use to people everywhere. It is basically a note app, but for people in the gym. It is an app that provides actual value to people. I will only share it to my family and some friends though. For, it only goes up to 50 people. I think I’ll leave it there. I usually try to type for 20 minutes a day. But, now I am mainly doing this to document my journey. So, for today that was basically it. I mean I am gonna workout, but this was the main one. I will probably make a tik tok of the app now. Just for fun you know. I am actually so happy. That genuinely made my day. I feel as if I am progressing so fast everyday. Hopefully, this doesn’t stop when school starts. I am going to try my best to continue this journey of daily development. Maybe, I will even get better at typing a long the way. Are you a forgetful person? How many reps of bicep curls did you do last time you when to the gym? If you can’t remember this app is for you. Our brain was made to have knew ideas not store them. So, why should we try to remember how much weight we put on our squat three days ago. Body Code is an app that will allow you to track your sets, reps, and weights for any workout. So, you will never forget anything from the gym again.
