9:20pm – on the train home
I’m already an hour into the train journey back, and spent most of it. Half asleep. Now it’s time for a little bit of a notebook session. As with a trip down here, I might not produce that much, but it’s all about quality rather than quantity. Continuing on from where I left off earlier, I contemplate the advantages of making a fresh start at 9 a.m. each morning, and think about how I can get over the huge mental block that have about actually succeeding in this really quite basic task.
Why do it? Should be pretty self-explanatory.
Just how much of a boost will this give? A very massive one
can it be quantified? Thousands of pounds.
Why so much? Just look at the possibilities it creates.
So how much I want to ‘ spend ‘ on this? It’s all about money, it’s about caring enough to get into a decent routine.
Is it all down to Monday — get this right, and the rest take care of itself? Pretty much — gain start writing some of the most important.
What else? Not to get too lax towards the end of the week — Thursday morning, and any overlap between Thursday night and Friday morning meets, particular attention.
Why is it so difficult? Have I done it before? When I laid it previously, was exactly 9? How about the start of 2005?
Wasn’t that the intent gave up at seven stop out onto that last few weeks?
So is there any excuse? Yes — loads — see below:
Excuses for not being in the office for 9 a.m.
- Didn’t have time to prepare the night before
didn’t hear alarm clocks
Berks/irritations in bed
clothes not ready
don’t have breakfast ready.
Don’t have the motivation to get to and from work
I can make it to the office, will be so tired through the day
I had everything laid out, but it then took me three hours to get to sleep
I’ve already had too much caffeine today to go to sleep properly.
I haven’t had enough exercise today.
No motivation to get up in the morning
TV to watch tonight
it’s just too hot to sleep properly
I still do a lot of chores to do before going to sleep
there’s too much noise out there (especially windows open.)
I’m still feeling overwhelmed by this medication
Countering this
- Just get straight up and take a shower
music at the ready
visualise — how good will it feel at the end of the day, with 5000 words. Having been reached, money in the bank, feeling a tidiness.
Juice
to produce
fruit
positive attitude can carry me through
