Back on Track Experiment – Day 125

Well I figured I better provide an update to the back on track experiment seeing as time passes even if I’m not doing so great on my goals …

The trick is to be either more stubborn, or more stupid (depending on how you look at it) … I could quite easily call this experiment a failure, but I prefer to try and learn from my mistakes and keep failing forward … it’s that whole ready fire aim attitude I have…

More Debt, Less Paying work, missing Guitar practices, have only picked up 1 song so far (and should have picked up 4 by now), meditating daily (thats working for me), have been out on the bike, but not enough yet (lack of funds can damper the biking), still smoking.

So what to do?

Well let’s see what I’m not doing right and see if I can correct it mid flight rather then crashing the plane and starting over …

The great ones say (the great ones being Andrew Carnegie, Napoleon Hill, Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, Jack Canfield, Eckhart Tolle, Etc… ) They all say that I need to know what my chief aim and purpose in life is, I should write down my goals in a clear and concise manner, that I need to read aloud twice daily this statement of desire and I need to use my power of visualization to see things the way I want them to be as if I have already achieved them.

Considering that part of my ideal happens to be displayed as Tony Stark’s lifestyle, I would say thats a pretty tall order to fill … But I like a good challenge.
So I’m going to have another crack at this… Because I didn’t really do things the way that ALL of the great successful people say that I should, and the point is to listen to what the successful people say right? What do I have to loose from writing it down and reading it aloud everyday? People already think I’m nuts…

Ok,
I’m going to start out with discovering my chief aim and purpose in life. Because thats just so simple for everyone (lmao). Then I’m going to write out my goals in a way that I can repeat them to myself (aloud) daily and I’m going to take 10 min after my meditation time to bone up on my visualization …

Thats the plan …

Mmmm Dinner

So I’m writing this from Jeff’s … I just finished helping him with his new laptop and he is cooking dinner … damn it smells good :-) I was just informed that Jeff was looking for a blog update and hadn’t seen one so I figured that seeing as there is no time like the present, I would play a quick bit of catch up and write a short post.

You (the good people) won’t actually see it until now (Today @ 11:11), but its not that now, now .. its this now (yesterday from your perspective) … by the time you read this (now) I will have already digested the deliciousness that i can smell (now)… and if *I* re-read this it will undoubtedly remind me of the meal which I haven’t eaten yet. So is that anticipation of a future moment, or recall of a past moment, or still the same NOW moment that we all actually live in and the other types of moments only a mere figment of our imaginations?

Time is such a twisted concept sometimes (now).

:-)

Rebeka just pointed out that I always use the AM for my post … in an effort to try something new to get the blog posting going again, I think that I will switch to the PM … that will make this now (that your reading this), not the now that I had originally intended but a different now all together, the tonight now (which still won’t happen to me for another 3 or so hours) … I wonder how the difference in now will affect the illusion of time from a digestive standpoint :-) will my re-collection of the future now while my belly is still full be that different from an illusionary point in ‘time’ when the yummy smelling food is long since passed? Thanks for the suggestion lady … we’ll see how it werks.

And Jeff … that better have been DAMN good because it feels like my stomach is going to eat itself if you don’t hurry up and finish cooking :-)
