My Journal Entry For Monday 7th November
Started the day with my morning routine. I’ve made a copy of it and put it in a personal OneNote folder so that I can check off items as I’ve completed them.
I’ve also decided to try and do a keto diet this week, I have followed it before and I do tend to lose weight, however, I get to the weekend and forget all about it and then put all of my weight back on. This week I need to apply more discipline.
Food Diary
I’m going to use this journal as a bit of a food diary too. Starting today:
12:00 pm – 3 slices of ham, approx. 10 spicy chicken wings done in the air fryer, and 3 breaded chicken goujons – so very few carbs there.
For a great book on diet, fasting, and keto take a look at The Obesity Code: Unlocking the Secrets of Weight Loss, it’s an excellent book.
For dinner tonight I’m slow cooking a big chunk of gammon on my green egg BBQ, I intend to have it with fried eggs, although I will probably do some chips and peas for the rest of my family.
Morning Routine
Anyway, back to my new morning routine, I still haven’t created my affirmations yet so am also unable to do the visualizations. Will get to completing those soon.
In the SAVERS acronym R is for Reading
For now, I thought I’d focus on getting to a stage of 50% complete of my Miracle Morning book, however, I kind of stumbled at the first hurdle as the book listed a load of recommended books, which I now have to add into my new books to read page!
Right, all the recommended books have been added, so now back to trying to get to 50% completion and summarizing what I learn as I go…
The new starting point is location 840 with 27% completion.
Hal Elrod, the author, lists more recommended books on his website, but I’m not adding them to my books list yet. For now, I will just list the extra ones on my book page as a kind of reminder to add them properly later.
Reading lots of books will improve your mindset.
“If you don’t believe your business or products are highly beneficial for the customer, it’s impossible to convince others to purchase from you.”
“You must believe in your product in order to be able to sell it.”
“Take 100% responsibility for everything in your life.”
“Set aside 10% of your income” possibly not in a position to do that at the moment.
“Take 10% and give it away” giving quite a lot of stuff to charity shops at present, that might have to do for the time being.
