Today, after some inspiring media I checked out yesterday, I spent a good amount of time studying and strategizing on economics, finance, and buyouts. This really motivated me to get back into the mindset of high finance and the plan for my buyout firm. Man, I’m excited! But, also, I took a look at some of my overall strategic plans for the future in relationship to where I see the world headed and found a new opportunity. Not a big opportunity but a small specific one within my present plans. Essentially, I will be putting together a membership site later this year that will also serve as the beginnings of another company of mine that I think can have a meaningful impact throughout the world. Due to my sleep schedule, today ran into tomorrow for me.

Thursday @ 10:35am ET – Theorizing and strategizing on economics, finance, and buyouts. Fun!

Along with a good workout today, I spent the bulk of the day getting things organized and systemitized within my personal environment. A big one that I worked on was hacking my personal website’s CMS to be much more friendly to making posts form my new Droid phone. This took a while, but is well worth it since it can save me a decent amount of time everyday. I’m impressed with my skills in pulling off this hack. I was quite productive today and feel good about my day.

Tuesday @ 10:08pm ET – Going to go diligently complete a hamstring workout now.

Today, I lost my momentum that I had yesterday & Saturday for my new marketing campaign and wasn’t able to produce a lot of work despite trying to get myself to throughout the day. My momentum still comes and goes in unpredictable swings, which is something need to nail down, since it is a big opportunity in my life. However, I was able to get some work completed for the new campaign and I’m sure it will be ready soon. At this point, I should probably try to recommit myself to my new schedule developed on last Thursday. One key in nailing down my mindset for predictable daily diligence is to gain control over the intuitive vs. sensory switch in my mind, as I can feel the distinction between the two and their corresponding effectiveness with outputting non-mental work. Looking forward to getting back on track this week with ample positivity & momentum!

Continuing my momentum from yesterday on my new awesome marketing campaign idea, I busted my ass all day working on further developing the campaign. I drafted a roadmap for its development too and I think I can launch it within one week’s time. Basically, developing the campaign calls for some web development, copywriting, strategic budgeting, vendor account establishment, contract writing, etc. I knocked of a few items today with good diligence and am really looking forward to launching this new campaign. I can’t see this one not being profitable.

While spending a bit of time strategizing for a company of mine, I hit upon an awesome less than free marketing campaign idea that I think will be pretty profitable throughout the future. With this new idea in mind, I couldn’t stop myself from going to work on it right away! So, I basically spent the rest of my day working on the development of this new marketing campaign. New opportunities like this always excite me and get me moving! Very much looking forward to getting this campaign out there in public soon!

Today’s Notes

Saturday @ 4:27pm ET – Just found a killer less than free marketing campaign idea for a company of mine that is going to help shoot this thing to the moon! 2010 is likely going to be extra good now! Extremely excited!

Wokeup later on today. Had a good shoulder workout. I did a lot of thinking today about business achievement, future technologies, and world development. A few key distinctions came out of this thinking today, which should be tangibly helpful. For one, I’m putting a greater emphasis on tracking, analyzing, and testing sales & marketing campaigns within my companies and with clients of my strategy firm. I also developed another productivity document that updates the vision for my goals this year after thinking out the details of that. Elements of this vision include greater health, security, connection, and momentum. Putting myself into the feeling of this new level makes me feel great! I look forward to making it into a tangible reality as soon as probable.

Friday @ 9:17pm ET – Working out side delts and trying to get motivated for the day.

Today’s Notes

Saturday @ 6:04am ET – I’m starting to personally associate to the reality of accelerating technological change and how it is going to radically impact my/our everyday life. I need to keep this at the forefront of my mind and really build my life accordingly to capitalize on this.

Saturday @ 12:36am ET – Small businesses are really missing the big boat of profitability by not tracking, analyzing, and testing their sales & marketing campaigns in fine detail. I’m going to really focus even more on this myself and try to implement this ASAP for other organizations working with my strategy firm.

Today had some good momentum to it. Ultimately, I didn’t get a ton done, but was able to keep the momentum relatively up which is important. I did very well with my bodybuilding by knocking out 2 solid workouts. I was also able to develop a couple key personal productivity documents that will help give me some additional daily structure for achieving more. One document consolidates the primary overall tasks I need to carry out on a consistent basis. The other document proposes an optional daily schedule for achievement productivity. This simple schedule consists of 3 parts… 1) Bodybuilding & Personal Life Maintenance 2) Content Creation & Social Networking 3) Business Development. I think this fits pretty well with my mindset and will help me produce greater results. I will probably have to condition myself into it though.

Friday @ 12:26am ET – Prepared and am enjoying healthy meal that is so yum yum to my tum tum.

Thursday @ 10:06pm ET – Working out again. Hitting the front delts this time. Feeling good.

Thursday @ 7:50pm ET – Just completed a back workout and am about to make a fruit smoothie full of protein and nutrition. Tastes like pleasure.

Today was a very sloooooooooow day for me. I had more computer troubles and spent the day fixing them once again this week. I eventually got everything working again and it appears solid this time around. We will see though. I also spent a good amount of time doing research on hosting companies in order to potentially upgrade my servers soon, due to current hosting company problems. I like some of the alternatives that I’m seeing out there, but it won’t be fun taking the time to move everything. Overall, an uneventful, sloooooooooow day without much momentum. Looking forward to picking things up again tomorrow and getting back on track.

Today, I decided to add one last feature to my completed mobile broadcasting desk, from the past couple days, that is pretty useful. I was able to figure out how to successfully attach my microphone stand to the side of my desk so that everything can be integrated into the desk for Live Broadcasts and other video recordings. I’m very happy with the final result of this desk modification that I implemented for my new amateur production studio.

Also, another key thing happened today. Since I’m into psychology and leveraging human nature for achieving my & others’ full potential, I explored a mindset that came to on a whim tonight. The words that can sum up this mindset are “I’m going to die.” Not too fun, right? Well, this mindset wasn’t much of a bummer since I’ve largely dealt with death long ago. However, today was a rare time where I actually emotionally felt the fact of my likely death sooner than later in the grand sense of time, relative to the human race. We all know this and understand it logically, but I really felt it and associated my full presence to it tonight. This mindset caused a laser like focus in me and the question of what is the most meaningful thing(s) I could do with my life, before it runs out. I felt a sense of urgent mission to take massive action. This feeling was very powerful. I felt fears and laziness melt away. We’ve all experienced this mindset at times in our lives, however, I’ve rarely had it come over me due to a simple premise of perspective like this. I explored this mindset and figured out how to recreate and extend it within myself, since I knew it would run out. It ultimately did run out, but it was a very powerful experience for me today. As I do more hacking of my human nature to achieve more of my human potential with my life, I will likely consider incorporating this mindset into my life. To further help understand this…you know how when people know they are going to die soon, like from an illness or trauma, they get super focused, purposeful, and enabled to take massive action that they couldn’t before. Well, that is the mindset that I was able to tap into and I believe it can be used throughout ones life decades before their death. This is a big positive and I’m thankful this experience came upon me today and that I could recognize the huge value in it. And for the record, I’m not presently dying!

I continued my desk modification work from yesterday for my new production studio. Pretty much finished with that now. I also spent a long time troubleshooting my computers and finally getting them in good shape again after a few rebuilds & reinstallations. Physical work always seems to go so slow compared to work that is more knowledge or communication based. So today seemed slow, but overall it was productive and important for moving forward with things. Not an exciting day, but still okay.
