START AGAIN MONDAYS

28/2/22

 

Balancing Chaos & Order

08:00ish: Start Again

Wake up

Write down dream/s & dream symbol exercise

Brainstorm on MIQ (Most Important Question I wrote down the night before. This mornings’ was “what makes me feel most free?”)

Rockpool swim (Cold shower if tide is too crazy - Mother Nature occasionally says “please respect me & give me space today, Michael”)

Coffee

Breathing - 1x round of Wim Hoff to help shift my physiology & focus on what’s actually important to me

Journal - Clarify Purpose, 3x thankful for, 3x opportunities for, 3x most important tasks for the day

09:30ish: Conscious Content

Walk out the door & travel to work

I use this time to listen to an audiobook or podcast that helps me progress in a desired direction 

10:30ish: Deep Work #1

Practice, Writing, Coaching or Meeting

This might be at the library, outside on the headland, a cafe, a colleagues’ studio, or a friend’s office space

13:00ish: Nutrition & Rest

Eat good food

Maybe 15min siesta 

14:30ish: Deep Work #2

Practice, Writing, Coaching or Meeting

16:30ish: Admin

Emails, calls, tick boxes, errands, etc etc

Turn my computer off as I say out loud “And now, I walk away”

17:30ish: Sweat

Exercise until I at least sweat

Jiu Jitsu, Strength, Pads, Sprints or Cardio 

19:00ish: Nutrition & Connection

Eat good food

Connect with people I love 

Maybe watch an episode of Futurama or Youtube clip on something random

Right now I love watching documentaries on Koi fish farms in Japan 

20:30ish: Deep Work #3

Practice, Writing, Coaching or Meeting

22:00ish: Progressive Thought

Three questions

One - Best thing about my day?

Two - What am I ready for tomorrow?

Three - What is my MIQ? My most important question to start tomorrow pondering

Phone left charging in the cupboard as I say out loud “And now, I walk away” 

23:00ish: Sleep

Free health care

Weekends 

Connection - Hang out with people I love and feel energised by

Adventures - Yesterday was standing literally behind a gigantic waterfall in the Blue Mountains with a dear friend. Then we went yabbie hunting. I’m 32 years old & I painted my face with mud. 

The point of a schedule is not to build a prison or to feel trapped

Aim to find your own healthy, meaningful and energising balance between chaos and order 

Enough structure to help yourself progress toward meaningful goals

Enough freedom to help yourself be agile with life

If I’m feeling overwhelmed, I scratch things out, and do less than I think I can handle 

And then I start again the next day 

Curious 

Hope this helps
