Day 6 – I can see the Vision!
OK…. I read chapter 6. What is just as important is that I created the vision board. I am not going to share it because it is private. If you do not like it, it is tough shit. I created it on a PowerPoint Slide, and saved it on a PDF so I can view it on my phone. This way, I can take it anywhere I need to. There is something very interesting about it. Looking at a vision board, can instantly motivate you. Once you get that feeling, it is enough to get you going to work towards what you want. This journey is 80% discipline, 20% motivation. Even though I wish it was the opposite, it is not. Today, I am going to read chapter 7 and continue working on my goals.

Day 5 – The view from underwater
I read Chapter 5 in the book last night, but did not do any of my non-negotiable daily tasks. So far while doing this, I haven’t been excited that I am working towards my goals. I have been treating each thing as an, “ugh, I have to do this again”. Looking at it from a different view point, I am excited that I get to work towards my goals, it is just that someone times you get caught in the monotony of it. The monotony makes you feel as if it is just something else you have to do when in reality you get to do it, not realizing, that you have to opportunity to. While looking back on this though process last night, I know what my next step is for Day 6. I really can’t believe I am about to do this, but I need to make a vision board. I never thought I would be making one of those. My goals are defined but they aren’t detailed. I need to create the vision that I need to work towards. It is important to have the goal in your head crystal clear so you know what you are doing. Years ago at work, I was told that someone observed that when I had a clear and precise end-goal in mind, there was nothing that can stop me from achieving it. It made me feel like a heat seeking missile. I will work to make this vision board a reality today (Saturday) and blog about it before I go to sleep tonight.

Day 4 – I’m slipping…..
The only thing I have done today towards my goals is read chapter 4. I can clearly see that without a clear-cut schedule, It does not get done. Yes, I have a timeline, but it is not detailed enough. Here is what I have decided to try next week as an experiment. I will be waking up at 5am, going to the gym, coming home to stretch, and then going for an hour walk. The question I need answered if i build a foundation such as this in the morning, will it make the day easier (in the sense of discipline) to meet my goals. Only time will tell….
