Woke up to hot, but I was ready to start the day — I had energy, and although I didn't fully stick to my ideal morning routine (still too much time on YouTube during breakfast), I managed to get a solid chunk of work done. Starting the day with urgency really helped, and it’s something I want to build on.
No major urges today, but I did see a stunning girl at the gym. My brain immediately started imagining a whole future with her (classic move), but she was surrounded by 4 guys — that was a red flag, and I managed to bring myself back to earth.
One major win: I didn’t game today, even though I had the opportunity. That’s a huge shift in my discipline.
The stress of the upcoming exam is building, and I didn’t do as much for it as I’d hoped, but my gym session gave me a lot of energy and gratitude. I also worked standing up (standing desk) today — something new — and it made a real difference. It boosted my focus and helped me stay sharp.
Ate well overall, although I noticed I was low on carbs at lunch, which made my workout a bit sluggish. Drank three cups of coffee, which kept my energy up. I overslept a bit — went to bed at 1am, woke at 10am — but I still got things done.
Gratitude today:
-
The clear blue sky, warm sun, and light breeze — it felt like God gently telling me, “You’re doing well. Keep going.”
-
My dog — I never stop to realize how much emotional support her quiet presence gives me. She can’t speak, but she heals.
-
My standing desk — a fresh setup that gave me a new sense of momentum.
-
Tomorrow’s aim:
Get up and be working by 10AM sharp. No slow starts. Keep the energy flowing.
