Writing was good today. Great, even, but “good” and “great” are subjective, for sure. I can do better, output-wise. But...I need to be patient with myself. One step at a time. I need to build my confidence, find the pocket, one step at a time. I forced myself to...

Ooooohhhh it was hard to write this morning. It’ll be hard tomorrow, too, probably, but gottdam...I still did it. 500 words I’m happy with. Two pages, almost. NOT the goal...but I still did it. Also did some work on the “project” that had me outdoors. That was nice....

It’s exhausting to raise the bar. And scary. And exciting. I’ve been waking up on time for a week, now. And I’ve done what I needed to do miscellaneous work-wise. Tomorrow, it’s time to write new pages for the first time in a long time. Brand new pages. Fresh. New...

Back at it again. Didn’t have the BEST Monday in terms of productivity, but I did have a decent one. Lost some time in the middle part of the morning just by being not as super focused as I could have been. It happens. Tomorrow will be different. Got up on time!...

Got my hands in the dirt today. I used to hate that as a kid. Gardening. It just seems like endless chaos to me. Now that I’m older, I think it was just my parents’ style of gardening: no borders, sporadically done when things got really out of control, which they did...

Into bed on time. Woke up on time this morning. That’s four days in a row. Tomorrow will make it five. It’s still not easy...but I must say, I was expecting resistance to be more of a factor in this project to get Ira up when he wants to be up. I was expecting it to...

Sleeeeeep. Long day. Great day. Great week, actually, which isn’t something I figured I’d be writing for a week when I decided enough was enough and I was going to force myself to wake up at 7am immediately after losing an hour of sleep anyway due to the switch to...

My job right now is getting up on time. That’s pretty much it, to be honest. Everything else is a plus. And, goddamnit if it isn’t WORKING. I was up again at 7am today. Tweaked my gd neck sleeping somehow. I really think it’s stress. Not bad stress, stress because...

Woke up on time this morning! Need to do it again tomorrow, and the next day, and the next...and the next for two weeks. Reset that internal clock. And, that’s about how long it should take. Blech. I really hate getting out of bed. It’s so cozy. And I’m so sleepy....

I had another decent day today. Got stuff done that was definitely giving me resistance. But, I did it. Didn’t finish it, but made major steps forward. Walked through my book outline from beginning to end with more clarity than I’ve ever had, to be honest. Going to...
