Last week was a lot of fun. I made some really great progress and came to some interesting realizations.

First, my realization: productivity, diet, exercise—all of them start with self discipline. If you attempt to improve any one of these without self discipline, you will fail as I often have in the past. So, I’m working to strengthen my self-discipline while at the same time working to improve my productivity, diet, and excercise. So far, it seems to be working. I’ll report back on my continued success in a week. (This realization brought to you by Steve Pavlina.)

Following this new technique, I made some nice head way last week.

Achievements

• I made three new contacts.
• I stopped drinking caffeinated drinks on Thursday.
• I’ve been getting up at 6AM since Tuesday.

My goals for the coming week:

• Continue getting up at 6AM through next Sunday.
• Not drink a caffenated drink through next Sunday.
• Exercise three times this week.
• Schedule two lunches for next week.
