Welcome back to another week of growth and development.
This past week’s focus has been on rebuilding and restructuring my thought process. No, it’ not whimsical decisions but a focus on being more intentional with the time that we have.
This year I have set out another goal of 52 books, including audiobooks:
I have currently finished audiobooks: The 10X rule, Essentialism, and the Gap and Gain. Currently listening to: Effortless.
Physical books: (still reading) Every Landlords Tax Deduction Guide and The Body Keeps The Score
I have The 5 Love Languages next on my list of physical books to read.
Exciting experience: After completing the Crusher a 130 mile mountain bike event in Michigan’s upper peninsula, month’s later the finisher mug and had came in. This mug is pretty awesome in my opinion. Definitely worth the 17 hours spend on a bike, taking the journey through thick sand, lake superior, ORV trails, and logging roads. Although, I would question asking me that in the moment of riding after 100 miles.
Habit reinitiated: I started 2021 with journaling (Daily Action Plan), with a focus on my mourning routine. I have a weekly self check in, along with daily prompts. Three primary priorities to check off consist of: Water (hydration to start the day), Reading (learn something new every day), and workout (focus on physical health). I follow this with three quarterly goals, which are broken down into weekly and daily goals. This helps keep the vision of where I am and where I am going. One of the most important parts of this “Daily Action Plan” is time blocking. Keeping to a schedule, where I can set time frames of what is most important. Although the day changes throughout, I can use this time blocking to keep myself on track.
Question: What habit or routine do you currently have? (If your answer is “nothing” reflect on how you start your day. In some cases this includes waking up and looking at their phone for 30 min or hitting snooze before reflecting on the things they need to do for the day). By then it’s too late and you’re already reacting to the day, opposed to controlling your day.
Action: Set out one habit you would like to prioritize each day and find a way to track this consistency.
