The main reason for this Journal is accountability. I wanted to increase the number of eyes that were holding me to the goals I set for myself. I wanted to put myself out there and say: this is who I am and how I roll. By advocating a position, [...]
When Ideas come, what do
BEING FLAKY is 100% preventable.
And, it only takes a tiny amount of effort in a few key places to be extraordinary.
So, in order to be prepared to get things done, I decided to have two groups of things with me most or all of the time…
One group, I’d have [...]
I had watched “The Office” with my wife, and I was starting to settle in. I didn’t plan the time needed to work out and then get to toastmasters in the morning, so I was in some trouble. I got to 10pm without working out.
I decided that keeping the streak going was more important than getting to bed. I knew I’d be able to get one goal done if I did that. So I laced up my shoes, and got out there.
Making A Schedule For Yourself
So every business–every job–has a ton of things that need to get done. There are emails to answer, there are planes to catch, bills to pay. And all of the distractions can eat you alive. There is no shortage of things competing for your time, energy and [...]
Google Reader Rocks: Google it. Get it, add my shared feeds.
Momentum rocks. Working out means I don’t wanna stop–doing something 3-4 days in a row makes it that much easier to keep doing it.

Scott Ginsberg: Make A name For Yourself

I’ve got to run in a few minutes to make my workout, but I wanted to start with some good information…
…and that is prepare the day before.
I have made a commitment to a healthy lifestyle, and that includes eating right, and that includes exercise. That includes waking up early to get my brain in [...]
Every morning, I wake up at 4:45. This gives me the time I need to get my brain engaged. To review my goals. To read.
And that habit has been going on for a couple of weeks, but it’s paid dividends:
I’m already up to go to the gym again.
I’m aware of what [...]
I got some stuff done today, but I need to be more ruthless with my tasks.
More on that later, but there are some “business building” things that I need to do, while I’m running the business. I’m getting to my 30k/month area, and it’s definitely in sight in October.
So, on my task list, buiness:

Thought for the morning:
Belief is sexy. Cock sure belief, that you’re doing the right thing, in the right place and acting as you want to act…attracts people. (As osama proves, it matters little what you believe, people are looking to become followers). And when you’re attractive to people, you’re more likely to [...]
