Email using GSuite and Mailjet. Mailjet isn't good. Their customer service is really bad for their paid plan. I have delivery issue and am still waiting for their reply after 2 days.
Have you tried Stripe https://stripe.com/docs/billing/subscriptions/integrating-se... ?
One part of me finds it hard to establish trust, not to mention make deal, with people using public email domains like @gmail.com @hotmail.com etc...
One of the comments has a great point: "You won't get THAT much cash for it, and you might end up at a engineering job that doesn't suit you, with golden handcuffs so you don't leave."
Alternatives to Loggr?
At here i don't even see trello.
Since we are talking about this, just a little reminder for interested ppl, it's more important to practice meditation than only reading any book on mindfulness.
Meditation is mental training. Understand it by practising meditation. Also for us to note is that negative thoughts are a defilement of our mind, abandon it :)
Why am I recommending this? Because I started with software engineering. And now that I want to do data science I know nothing. I find it really hard to get started with free courses online. I lack foundation in strong stats, linear algebra and etc. It is just so difficult to acquire these from books for me.
Your perspective is interesting. I'm interested to find out more. Could you describe in detail what do you mean by "the best... FACE the problem BEFORE... knowledge."?
Best wishes,

I have decided to stop thinking and researching. Decided to give it a go for $39. If it's not suitable for me, it's just that amount.
Definitely better than wasting my effort thinking and researching.
Meditation is a mind training. The goal of this training is to be mindful in every aspect of our lives. Before I elaborate on this, I would like to touch on a few other key words such as dwelling, wandering, and tug of war.
Our mind wanders all the time. For example, I might be programming in front of my computer and yet my mind wandered to think about e.g. pornography. Here I see that our mind is pulled to temptation.
Our mind dwells on issues all the time. For example, my partner might accuse me of being indecisive. And I feel unjust about this statement. I'm angry and upset about this matter. I'm angry and upset because my mind dwells on it. My mind keeps thinking about it. Then when I'm hungry all I think about is finding food to eat and I consume the food. Following this, I might realised that I am no longer angry and upset. Why? It's because our mind doesn't dwell on the issue anymore. Instead our mind focus on finding food, and consuming it.
According to my Bhante, Buddha notes that our mind is like a monkey trying to grab on to branches and branches. I hope I'm making sense here, because I'm also learning to be mindful through the practice of meditation. I am still learning. On a personal note, I try to meditate every morning right after waking up. And every night before turning in. I try to meditate for 10 mins each session.
Going back to my point on the goal of meditation. The goal is to be mindful in every aspect of our lives. Ultimately, we should see ourselves bringing our mind to the present/awareness (that means not wandering/dwelling like monkey grabbing branches) in a blink of an eye or a snap of a finger. For example, if I am driving, I should focus on driving and not wander/dwell on something else. If my mind wandered I should be able to bring it back to my awareness that I'm driving on the road in a blink of an eye.

In my opinion, to iron out the issues you're facing with meditation I recommend that you seek a mentor/teacher. For me, I learnt a lot from and am still learning from my Bhante. He is truly a great teacher. PM me anytime if you have any thing to clarify. jek.bao.choo@gmail.com
