Why do I need this?

At some point, I became acutely aware of the need to type without looking at the keyboard.
The usual "two-finger" method had run its course and started to annoy me. I clearly understood that I needed to type faster, but the physical reality wouldn't allow it.
Since I had been typing with "two fingers" for many years, retraining was daunting.
I didn't believe in the outcome.
Grigory Gorin, the screenwriter for the film "That Very Same Munchhausen," was a very wise and peace-loving man.
When conversations in a group of his fellow writers and artists began to heat up, he would masterfully defuse the situation by asking the main arguer his trademark question: "What are you working on right now?"
And the person would immediately switch to a constructive mode. They would remember their own concerns, their own work, and everyone would be interested in hearing them talk about it.
In his latest video, Egor Bugayenko perfectly articulated the simple ideology of the People of Labor – "They want nothing to get in the way of their labor."
After turning 40, I felt a strong need to move from the category of consumers to the category of producers. It doesn’t matter what—but instead of taking, to give. Otherwise, life feels unfair. As if you’re not holding up your end of the bargain. The life of a drone.
Not to deprive myself of ordinary pleasures like eating and sleeping, but to add the pleasure of a clear conscience and peace with myself.
Tracking my activity during working hours has become almost a physiological need, like brushing my teeth. Outside of work, I don’t track anything: not chores, not leisure, nothing. Those things aren’t important. Only labor has value.
V.S. Vysotsky, for example, despite his turbulent, disorderly daily life, treated all his manuscripts with great care. He recorded everything and preserved everything. He felt he had no right to do otherwise.
1 tomato = 25 minutes of work + 5 minutes of rest.
Only with me, it’s always either the rest drags on (at the start of the day, before I get into the groove) or I do 2-3-4 pomodoros in a row without a break – usually after lunch, when I’m already rolling and need to finish the daily quota. It’s very important to count how many pomodoros you do per day.
A great day is when I hit the maximum limit of 16 pomodoros: 8 pomodoros for each of 2 projects. In reality, I end up doing half that.
LaborGit for Android is built on the open-source code of Telegram: https://github.com/DrKLO/Telegram
No, it's not another Telegram bot or some plugin or add-on. It is a full-fledged Telegram, repurposed into LaborGit:
The chat list has been repurposed into a list of Tasks and Steps
Folders have been adapted to group Steps by days/weeks
The search mechanism with excellent visualization of recent found elements (Recent) has been preserved
In the late '80s, I watched Cold Summer of '53 in a cinema. I was deeply struck by Anatoly Papanov's final words: “I only regret one thing… Time. How much I want to live like a human being… and work, yes, work.
It was specifically the word “work” that resonated with me. As a child, it seemed completely unclear how anyone could desire work, although it did evoke respect. It left a lasting impression on me.
A new version of LaborGit for Android has been released (v.2.2.3)
