Day 2 - Empowerment - Building the momentum

Recap from yesterday - what I achieved:

• I went to the gym for an hour and burnt 700 calories
• I bought a writing diary
• I enrolled in a course - Professional Writing and Editing
• I listened to the audio book - CSIRO Total Well Being Diet
• I have researched a personal trainer locally - I just need to save for it after paying for the course!
• I finished the best book I have read in a long time The Memory Keepers Daughter by Kim Edwards (http://www.memorykeepersdaughter.com/) - which inspired me to then write - 821 words (not bad for 2am).

So all in all it was a successful day! Now to build the momentum and create days like this all the time!



***Day 2***

Today I will make a list of four actions I know I should take now.

Then I will analyse why I haven't already taken the steps to complete these actions.
- What pain do I associate to doing these things?
- Why haven't I just done them in the past?
- What makes me keep putting these things off?

Then I want to know what pleasure I have had from not following through on these things..

Then I want to show myself the pain I will be in from not changing these things. I want to make it so the thought of not doing these things is far more painful than the thought of doing them.

Then I want to motivate myself with the benefits I will receive from doing it! I want to paint the big glossy picture of where I am heading and make the pleasure of that far out weigh any reason to ever procrastinate about these things again!

I'll be back to let you know what I came up with!
