I’ve woken up today with plenty of energy which is probably due to a few reasons.
I think first is the time tracking I’ve been doing has made me a bit more motivated to make the most of today and start ticking off some goals. I also didn’t eat dessert last night and swapped it for a 20 minute walk. Trading dessert for a 20 minute walk, then coming home to read makes a massive difference to my sleep.
With a good nights sleep behind me, I now have the opportunity to push hard today and look to tackle my 8 hours work, then 10km run, all straight away. This is my main goal for today, to work 8am-4pm without any breaks.
On the surface this sounds challenging however I’m just needing to do a bunch of actions between then and whether they’re hard, easy, challenging, or whatever is up to me to decide.
I want to be known as a hard worker, and I need to turn my business around, so therefore being able to work 8 straight hours without stopping for snacks to make me feel better, or get distracted, will help me achieve both of these.
When I’m doing this, I can slow down, I just can’t quit. Then I just need to focus on ‘making good decisions’, and ‘acting in spite of how I feel’.
There are plenty of opportunities in front of me and doing the volume will negate luck. I could get lucky with timing and contacting the right person who needs what I’m after, or I can just contact everyone and crank up the probability of achieving my outcome.
Right now I’m writing this from a place of high motivation. I have no doubt this will disappear over the course of the day however as long as I commit to the fight and getting to a place of 9/10 discomfort, I can achieve the 8 hour straight workday.
There is so much opportunity in the world right now and I want to take advantage of all of it. There’s no limit to how many people I can contact today, how many people I can try to help, and how much money I can make.
I just need to lead with hard work and trying to solve problems for other people. Then once I get one day done, reflect on it, and adjust the plan for tomorrow.
I’m excited but I know that’s because I’m writing this from a place of comfort. Today is going to be extremely tough but I won’t negotiate with myself and I will achieve these targets.
