Category: First 7 Days

  • Week of routine – 7-day summary

    Feels amazing to hit the first reasonable milestone. Of course it’s far from routine yet. Building a habit takes a lot of effort and well nurtured repetition, but doing it for 7 days straight, is already a small win worth celebrating. To summarise these 7 days, I want to list down one-time things that enabled…

  • I almost slipped on day 6…

    …but doing my best to recover. Weekends are probably the hardest to keep up with any routine. Unless you’re the long time habit warrior, I guess – it’s a struggle. Mainly because most of us treat weekends as rest days, fun days, or just plans with family and friends to do something else, than daily…

  • Fifth day is a challenge, but…

    …I keep pushing. When life gets in the way, we need to be ready. Of course we cannot control certain things. Of course we cannot predict future, but… we can plan for what we know, and for what we have control over. I knew that I’ll spend the whole day on the road, and it…

I discovered that building habit(s) is infectious. At least for now and as long as I…

  • Day Three and already enjoying it

    “I don’t have to agree with you, to respect you.” Anthony Bourdain Difficulty with forming a habit is not a trivial thing. We all have habits. The problem is that many of them are “bad” habits, or basically the ones that are not beneficial for us, or worse – holding us from forming the good…

  • Day two of forming a habit…

    Very late post, but I decided to not give in on a second day (like I would in the past on many occasions). 22:31 (10:31PM if you like), is when I write it. Shortly after I managed to move my ungrateful bum, and walk around town. One hour on my own, with just the sounds…

  • It’s time to start over…

    Call it resurrection or a fresh start, this step was long overdue. So much to say, so much to write, and so many excuses over years. Just the main ones that I can write down from the top of my head. Finally, I said “enough”. This is the proof – first post of, hopefully, many…
