Nusuth Posted January 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2017 Edited the Life-goal ; specified the number of tasks / life-piece. I've been experimenting with this system for the last 2 weeks. It works like a charm. It's very seldom I see the note and I don't have the willpower to read it. And well: the last years I've been in such an apathetic state it is allready a huge gain if I only do 1 task an evening, That over a week; is like living in another universe. My joy at work allso allready got a boost, since I'm getting things done pro-actively.

Looking forward to this evening. The middle task between 'starting the laundry-machine' & 'go to dry-house with laundry' is 'Transfer plant to bigger & multiple pots' /edit : Forgot to mention Diet : made a Cucumber/apple/water smoothie Quote Nusuth Revamped Current Challenge You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf Jon Kabat-Zinn A quitter never wins and a winner never quits.

At the end: rushed out of the building to catch a bus.. forgot the note :s If this continues, I need to be more flexible on the timing of this note-writing. Came home late. no tasks done. Crashed into bed early. Wrote the evening note in the morning after waking up.

Nusuth Posted January 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2017 the evening measurement of 105 didn't happen ; It's stuck at 107cm. Day 7 sun ; I can only remember re-potting my big plant & splitting his babies in vessels to grow root. and being seriously pissed at myself for having not noticed there are no holes in the pots !! Day 8 mo : forgot the note again at work ; Did write the evening note. Was more motivated to do intermittent fasting then to drink smoothie. Day 9 Tue : I put the repeating reminder in my outlook and behold : I wrote the 6tasks in notepad. Acutally executed two evening-tasks & wrote the evening-note : easy one : no tasks but to go TableTop gaming with collegues tomorrow. I've got an issue with the Tai-chi course goal ; Due to my work/life flow , I come home late. So I was counting on a day of HomeWorking to make this plausible. With the introduction of Agile programming ; I'm flooded with meetings, presentations, kick-offs , reviews etc. Need to broaden my search towards the weekend.

Nusuth Posted January 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 Week 3 ; started drinking again on Tuesday. That killed of the smoothie goal. Tai-chi , or any other evening-course is impossible as long as I don't get the homeworking routine. the Ivy-Lee note is still alive Quote Nusuth Revamped Current Challenge You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf Jon Kabat-Zinn A quitter never wins and a winner never quits.
