Completely forgot to say how it went yesterday - Actually completed daily objective 1 and 4 (even finished the pendulum animation, so that's nice) - I haven't touched 2 and 3 ________________________________________________________ Objective 01, Social media only for education : Day10 ___________________________________________________________ Objective 02, Wake up at 6am, drink a coffee, write down the daily objectives on this website first thing after getting up : Day 02 ___________________________________________________________ Objective 03 : Day 02 - Accomplish 7h00 of work total *** (see the note bellow) - Start working at 8h30 am and work for 3h30 - Continue at 1h30 pm, work for 3h30 - If I still haven't done 7h00 of work by then due to interruptions, continue at 6h30 work until I've done my 7h00 *** NOTE - Working is important for me, but I still want to remain flexible. I don't feel like cutting myself off from the people I know and tell them that I can't see em because I have to work and study. During those day where I'll be visiting someone (father, brother, whatever) for a big chunk of the day, the objective changes from 7h00 of work to 3h30 of work. - No form of distraction / fun activity allowed until I've tried as much as possible to complete those objectives without being sleep deprived the next day, and that means No television, no phone conversations, no texting, no reading ______________ TODAY daily objectives are - Sending something like 10 CV (that's the main objective today) - Reading the '' Driver user guide'' book (I have no idea how to translate this in English) for something like two hours (secondary objective) - Maybe getting some daily feedback on the animation I made and looking for more references

Daily Objective - Planning and scene setup - Sending 7 to 10 applications - Reading the '' Driver user guide'' book (I have no idea how to translate this in English) for something like two hours - Starting the pendulum animation if I have the time

Objective 01, Social media only for education : Day09 ___________________________________________________________ Objective 02, Wake up at 6am, drink a coffee, write down the daily objectives on this website first thing after getting up : Day 01 ___________________________________________________________ Objective 03 : Day 01 - Accomplish 7h00 of work total *** (see the note bellow) - Start working at 8h30 am and work for 3h30 - Continue at 1h30 pm, work for 3h30 - If I still haven't done 7h00 of work by then due to interruptions, continue at 6h30 work until I've done my 7h00 *** NOTE - Working is important for me, but I still want to remain flexible.

I'll keep working and try to finish the rest. - Sending my CV to 5 places Maybe, if I make the time for it and if the objective up above doesn't take too long - Reading the '' Driver user guide'' book (I have no idea how to translate this in English) Maybe, if I make the time for it

Daily objective for the day - Finishing my notes, finishing my animation planning, starting the pendulum assignment - Sending my CV to 5 places - Rending a bit more of ''guide de la route'' I guess?

And you know what, I think I am, and actually came up with a solution. Actually it's so simple that I am surprised that I didn't think of this sooner. So from now on, I will not be partaking in any form of distraction / fun activities until I am done with objective 01, 02 and 03 for the day. WHY didn't I think of this sooner? IT'S ... like... the FIRST thing that I should have done when starting this. ALSO, from now on every morning after waking up I will be writing down 2 to 3 objective (minimum) that I'll be trying to accomplish through those 7 hours of work and immediately after finishing those 7 hours, I'll make a second update detailing how it went. It will also act as a tell tell sign that I messed up objective 01 if I don't post something in the morning. SO the objectives are now like this from now on : _________________________________________________________________________ Objective 01, Social media only for education : Day08 ___________________________________________________________ Objective 02, Wake up at 6am, drink a coffee, write down the daily objectives on this website : Day 0 ___________________________________________________________ Objective 03 : Day 0 - Accomplish 7h00 of work total *** (see the note bellow) - Start working at 8h30 am and work for 3h30 - Continue at 1h30 pm, work for 3h30 - If I still haven't done 7h00 of work by then due to interruptions, continue at 6h30 work until I've done my 7h00 *** NOTE - Working is important for me, but I still want to remain flexible.

During those day where I'll be visiting someone (father, brother, whatever) for a big chunk of the day, the objective changes from 7h00 of work to 3h30 of work. - No form of distraction / fun activity allowed until work is done _________________________ And here's an other 100$ lost

So I ended up wasting yesterdays evening on social media, went to sleep at 12h00pm. Woke up at 11am, managing to fail objective 2 and 3 in one go. So I am resetting every day counters that I've had and starting from zero again. Going to pay up 150$ for failing again... I am not even sure what to learn from this honestly... and the very idea that someone finds out that I've been sending money repeatedly because I keep failing those objectives scares the ever living crap out of me.... How the hell do the rest of you stick to your objectives?

I have it under control (I think), but don't really want to start using this as an excuse to waste my time. ... unsure what to do about this, meditation? I don't know _________ Objective 02: Wake up and drink coffee The good - Same ol, same ol, I still wake up at 6h00 - Made the coffee, but I ended up drinking it afterward The meh - Lethargic! This is actually so dumb. I mean come on! Feeling sleepy shouldn't even be that much of an excuse to not do something as simple as... I dunno, changing my cloths? Taking a shower? - Alright tomorrow I'll make sure not to go back to bed immediately after finishing my coffee, this is dumb ________ Objective 03 The good - Actually finished my 7 hours earlier yesterday, nice - Nearly done with my homework as a whole The meh - After 4/5 hours of work I have trouble concentrating on the task at hand, I think that having different thing to do might help me. That way I can do something else when I am struggling to be productive. _____________________ Hey, thanks for the comment I feel like just need to get moving after waking up honestly. It kinda feel like a snow ball effect sometime : I get up late - Start work late - Finish work late (and so it's more difficult).

Some of you guys allready recommended some books to me, so I'll look into it _________ Objective 02: Wake up and drink coffee The good - Well at least I still wake up at 6 am The meh - I am lethargic and basically don't do anything, I think that getting into the habit of doing a small chore after waking up might help me ________ Objective 03 The good - Well I work a lot more then I used too - Did a whole lot of work yesterday, finished a big chunk of the stuff I wanted to do The meh - Tend to stray from the established schedule and push some of the stuff I don't want to do...

I noticed that I have a tendency to push work for a later time... that's bad. I still do 7h of work in the end, just not efficiently. I need to man up

I'll will come back to theses goals because I am motivated to change, but sometimes I'll just look for excuses to do something else because I just won't feel like working. It's a bit of a contradiction, and I am not even sure if it make sense, but that's more or less what I did, felt like reading some books, I didn't feel like working, so I literally spent my day reading. Guess I'll just have to learn how to suck it up

So after my reset on objective 03 five days ago I think you asked what lead me to fail and how I plan to improve. _______________________________________ Question : What lead me to fail ? Answer : A lack of motivation to accomplish the objective. __________________________________________ Question : How do I fix this? Answer : By losing money until I start caring about accomplishing this objective, motivation or no. _________________________________________ What I was trying to say is that when I remember that I've lost something like 750$ doing this so far... the prospect of just giving up on those objectives of mine because I don't want to work just... doesn't seem like an option. Failing from time to time reminds me of this, of the cumulative cost of my failure so far, and it gives me a good reason to do something, even if I don't really want to. Don't know if it makes any sens.
