Over the weekend and even earlier
today, I was really hard on myself for not following through on things I needed
to accomplish. For the life of me I could not I understand that if the things I
desire take work, why is it so hard to do!
I was starting to believe that I guess I really didn't desire the things
that I thought I did. However after
saying a prayer and asking for understanding, I begin reading (and watching YouTube
videos) about accomplishing goals and following through. This is when I came
across this nice little quote:
“Motivation is in the mind; follow-through is in the practice.”
The article where I found the quote suggests
that in order to “follow through” on the things that I desire, I need to stop
thinking and just do. Now I don’t know
about all that but I will try my damn best to give it a shot. Therefore in
order to just do and not think, one has to be very specific in the things they
want to accomplish.
MOTIVATION: Get up at 5:00/5:30am
FOLLOW THROUGH: No internet past
9pm and sleep no later than 10:30pm.
MOTIVATION: Post once a week on
both blogs.
FOLLOW THROUGH: Write everyday
for 30 minutes.
MOTIVATION: Run a 5k.
FOLLOW THROUGH: Train with my
C25K app 3 times a week.
MOTIVATION: Read 4 books per
month.
FOLLOW THROUGH: Read at least 30
minutes a night.
Now I cannot speak on tomorrow,
but today I did excellent job following through on EVERYTHING that I sat out to
accomplish (work, school, working out and writing). Lets see what tomorrow bring!
See ya next week!
