Day 26: Shaping Discipline
I could have sworn I went through a bit of a slump around day 25 on my last 30 day cycle – but I went through and read several days and couldn’t find anything about a slump. It must have been earlier – that being said, going back and reading these actually helped me out…

Day 25: Shaping Discipline
I hate daylight savings time – I’ve never been able to find a clear answer as to why it exists: “oh it’s for the farmers” – err wait. “Oh it’s to save whale oil!” – oh umm well yeah that’s not something we use anymore. The whole thing whatever it is, isn’t relevant and only…

Day 18: Building Discipline
I slept like shit last night – the joys of relationship troubles as you change and grow. I got out of bed on-time this morning and did a lot of stuff, but I kept my son home because wasn’t feeling well. I cut my reading a little short as well – I’m already way ahead…

Day 14: Shaping Discipline
I’m wondering if I’m getting enough sleep – I keep waking up before my alarm – like 10 or 20 minutes. Generally that means I got in bed early enough the night before. I’m probably worrying over crap I shouldn’t be – just wondering why I’m fighting something else now that I just got over…

Day 13: Shaping Discipline
It is a fight to get myself to do things I know I should be getting done. I need to put myself into whatever I’m doing fully. I got through my daily list, but I don’t like the end result – it was half-assed today as was my whole day. How to hold myself accountable…

Day 11: Shaping Discipline
Got up and made stuff happen this morning. I didn’t do my martial practice as I was planning on training with my grandmaster this afternoon – but he’s in the process of moving his business to another location. So yeah that got washed out. Meanwhile I’ve been dealing with a mouse infestation and taking care…

Day 9: Shaping Discipline
I let myself sleep in this morning because it’s Saturday and then I got up and did my meditation first thing, then my mobility work, and martial practice. Then I did my professional reading – there have been some interesting insights in Cyberjutsu that I hadn’t considered before. So yeah the book is definitely worth…

Day 8: Shaping Discipline
Got out of bed on time – well before 4:45 this morning. I did realize this morning that I should be doing the stuff I’m avoiding first – duhhh me. I took my shower and got dressed first, then hydrated. Then I went right to meditating (keep checking the time right around the 7 minute…
