      Same thing. In fact, I often have to be reminded of holidays, because it all blends together.

      I never need anything to get me started, because...in my mind...I've never stopped.

      My interest in my business is waning. So...eventually, my interest will be low enough that...one day...I'll just say "I don't want to do this anymore", and I'll retire on that day.

      Then probably, a week later, I'll get antsy again.

      that sounds like a better definition of success than any attempt i have seen made to define it on this forum .."free to do the things i want to do when i want to do them "

      I look at the world in terms of seeing only 1 world economy that is on 24 hours a day.. prone to rapid and sudden changes ..

      a lot of the success concepts .. are winning the rat rat .. by building your own track ..in the pre 1 economy world ..that is quickly dissolving..

      the only rituals i would give credence too to incorporate ..would be if i want to work out in the morning..i put on workout cloths utill you work out..then after you clean up and eat if you intend to work from home have some comfortable at home work cloths ..a paper schedule system. And a done list ..to track what you do every day ..

  • Can I start Toosday plz?

    I am not late -- I am early.

    For surespaws, I would naht wanna be rityool by default.

    bcs this is kinda entreprenoor poison, right?

    "I am so future focussed, I am stuck here forever.

    Without my 5.56am coffee, I cannot THINK!

    Without my probioticalistic [reads label] ... uhm ... STUFF, I cannot EXIST!

    Without the threat of zombie apocalypse, I have no purpose! No reliable AMYGDALA!"

    Hey, so if anywan here intrested AT ALL in how the vaguely kinda Roman astrological calendah relates to YOUR EXISTENCE in the JUICYDELISH

    why naht flop offa yr yogah mat (eithah side, don't try the ends bcs you will likely hurt yusself gettin' up that way).

    an' snort ancientale Motivates ...

    "why, these new self-talk stuffs sound so much like me
    I can't believe nobody is selling me anything!"

    "Either we are chained to the floor or free as a bird.

    When you look back, what are the sweetest moments give voice to your word?"

    "Princess Balestra quit contributing to this post at 10.13AM est.

    What a slackah that gal is actshwlly."


    tbh I would wish for anythin' 'prolly' to be more sensibly yummily.

    Else'n what you demandin' from your SAME?

    What goes around comes around ... so what is it, zackly?

    Mondays are my favourite -- and most productive -- day of the week : ) Usually after having the weekend off, I can't wait to get working again. I very much like structure/routine ... For example, I do what I do for every working day and the night before create a whole list for the next day -- everything from drinking water in the morning, to reading my Personal Development books, to having a meal, and of course, several hours of work.

    I know I've mentioned it before, however if I already had the Millions, I would do it all for free.

    Anyway, similar to Kay and others above, I do all that ... Because I want/choose to do it. Similarly, as Bob Dylan said: "A person is a success if they get up in the morning and get to bed at night, and in between they do what they want to do."

    Like babareke I begin with prayer.

    I do not get the question. I mean, I understand it, but why have a Monday ritual? As opposed to what?


    First thing I do on Mondays is wake up. Honest.
    Then, I think what I wanna do next, and do it.


    But I do that every other day.


    Some Mondays, the first thing I wanna do is check my email. Other times is take a shower. Other times is lie in bed and think about how gorgeous lying like that is. Other times I look up what's happening on warriorforum. Other times, I think about creating some piece of content. Or a plan of action. Or go to Starbucks and get an Americano.


    Once I'm done with the first thing, I go to the second thing. Always in that order. Cross my little heart and wish to die.

    Monday meditation is very important to start with full motivation. We have to charge our battery(soul) to work with full strength.

      I tried meditation many times, and honestly it's pretty useful. At first, you think it will not help you, and it's pretty hard but after some training it's really chill and relaxing !

    The night before I write out a to do list, and my goal for the week.
    First thing in the morning, while drinking Coffee of course I will go over my to do list and prioritize it.

    I usually spend my first hour promoting on Social Media, then follow my to do list for the remainder of the day.

    I repeat the same process daily.
