Today I am grateful for doing some real sport after the vacation. One amazing thing that happened/I did today 1)started running and at first it was really hard because I thought I lost some stamina during nearly week of no real sport but after a few kilometers I realised that it was just a mental thing and not a physical one and it went great Workout/run more than 23k steps 10km running 2h workout at the gym Meditation 67min (in the morning and afternoon) Visualisation and daily affirmation did a lot visualisation during my run Reading (1hour of studying for the exam today) had enough time for a spanish podcast but was only able to study an hour because there was so much to organise after coming back my wake-up time 9:00 (to get a bit more sleep again) Weekly Goal(s)start waking up at 6:30am, study at between 5 and 8hours per day, have at least 4 perfect days in a row Monthly Goalto study at least 4 hours a day (or as average over the weeks), be more grateful for everything in life, find the joy of living in the moment, think hard about my values and what kind of person I want to be, find ways to avoid falling back to old habits in times of boredom especially now in the summer3 Month Goalgetting my degree or getting it nearly done during the summer, having a really productive life, living my life so that I am proud of it, avoid the comfort zone as much as possibleWhat went well today: (NF:0/NW:0/NS:1/NC:68) did some spanish and a lot of meditation, studied only around 1 hour but hopefully organised enough so that after this weekend (there will be 2! big birthday parties of relatives) I should be able to ramp up my study time significantly What I could have done to make my day better a lot of things: more spanish (especially reading my book), some more Tai-Chi (I only did some streching), more studying (the usual ? ) but the day only has a fixed amout of hours and I would have needed at least 5 more ? What I will do differently tomorrow/What I have planned for tomorrow: wake up around 8, go to the first birthday party, study a bit, Weekly summary, thoughts and improvements for the future starting next week I will be waking up early again because I always experienced a greater productivity for the whole day when doing that (but only if I get enough sleep) also I am thinking how to cope with my webnovel problem because I reduced it down to less then an hour (more like a half) of the day but the last step is hard since it is my stress or boredom coping mechanism finally since my goal of at least one or more months without no fap is still far away I am thinking of following the advice of a few members in this forum and start with no porn and move slowly from there that should be more manageable 1
Adminiculum Posted August 24, 2019 Posted August 24, 2019 Good job mate ? And I feel also more productive when I wake up early. Its somehow the feeling you are better than other people, who wake up late. It gives you kind of a benefit, you are one step more a head. But yea, enough sleep is more important(-> go earlier into the bed) 1
