Hey re-inventors!

I am back with the Day 3 of this series

If you have no idea what this series is about, check this out:

30 DAYS OF DOING THINGS THAT I WAS “GONNA” DO

These are some of my favourite quotes from gary vaynerchuk.

The reason that I am doing this is because I want to unlock my life and take it to the next level.

If you don’t sacrifice for what you want, what you want becomes the sacrifice : Tweet this

So, what exactly am I going to do with this series? This is what I am going to do:

→ Redefine what working hard means to me and improve my work ethic

→ Make subtle but influential changes in different areas of my life : My workouts, my relationships and my work.

→ I will share all of my day with you guys (As is said in my last post, I will be completely vulnerable and authentic), each and every minute

→ I will show my insecurities along with the things that I do wrong, by analysing and introspecting at the end of the day as I write this post.

Yet, I feel sad today because today was not good. I did waste time today only to regret later.

You will see that in a while.

A PEEK INTO MY MIND

I woke up a bit earlier today and expected to be the first person in the gym. I have never been the first person to enter the gym, but I really want to. However, there is always some or the other person already present. phew! Will try next time!

Anyway, I came back and started working instead of taking a shower because the task was urgent. After about an hour, I went for a shower and some breakfast afterwards.

I worked from 8:30 a.m to almost lunch time. In between I helped mom with some chores for 20 minutes and watched a steph curry documentary for 15 minutes. SO yeah I wasted 15 minutes

After lunch I worked for some time and then I studied for an hour (yeah, my exams are coming ).

Here comes the ultimate TIME WASTE of the day. I started working at 3 and then suddenly fell asleep at around 3 : 30. Fortunately I woke up at 4:10. But even then, another 40 minutes were wasted. That really pissed me off :(

Afterwards, I worked till dinner, with a 10 minute break in between.

After dinner, I sat with my family. I had nothing else left to do for the day, so I went into my room, read a book and slept around 9:45.

Overall, I did not like this day. The fact that I could have accomplished much more in the 1 hour that I wasted pisses me off.

I will surely improve upon this the next time.
