<div class="bbWrapper">Alright, here's my metrics for the last week, and a few past days before that I mentioned in an earlier post here that I was <s>off to a wasted time in my hometown</s> break with parents.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/members/6143/" class="username" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" data-user-id="6143" data-username="@458">@458</a> mentioned earlier on having some goals to beat, so for each metric, here are some:<br />
<br />
-cook at least THREE times a week<br />
-Take supplements TWO times a day<br />
-sleep at least 6 hrs a night<br />
-one email/sales copy breakdown<br />
-at least one hr A DAY on studying for college<br />
-at least one hr A DAY on college projects<br />
-Read up to THREE educational emails a day (not including email copywriting ones from Settle or AWAI)<br />
-walk more than 1000 steps<br />
-go to gym at least 2 times a week<br />
<br />
Other metrics like Upwork sales/ follow-ups and networking will have to wait for a bit for their goal-setting, as according to the week's report, even the fundamental goals above aren't well met yet.<br />
<br />
I did have a few repeat clients, but nothing really special about the rates or jobs to speak of...<br />
<br />
Here's the goals I didn't meet perfectly...<br />
<ol>
<li data-xf-list-type="ol">go to gym at least 2 times a week</li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ol">one email/sales copy breakdown</li>
<li data-xf-list-type="ol">sleep at least 6 hrs a night</li>
</ol><br />
I've noticed that on the days I overslept (in the morning or evening), I tend to try to make up for the lost time by working late into the night, only to F*ck up my sleep time and most probably oversleep too the next day, or not wake up immediately to the alarm.<br />
<br />
That means there are many days where I did get the 6 hours of sleep, but I slept into the PRODUCTIVE hours of the morning...<br />
<br />
I'm still working on college assignments due in the coming week, so I'd expect the regularity in my habits and activities to remain out of whack for some time.<br />
<br />
I was shocked to hear from my group assignment peers that YOU COULD UNDERLOAD units for college, i.e. take 2 units instead of a full 4.<br />
<br />
That means I would have less to study, less assignments, and more time available from the get-go!<br />
<br />
Of course you would take longer to graduate, but you only pay for whatever units you take, and the extra time you've got on your hands can be used for work. Work on an internship, Fastlane, or improve the grades to be much better.<br />
<br />
This feels like a much better alternative to simply dropping out of university, and burning bridges with my parents. I should have done this earlier, but somehow the intro sessions never introduced this to me. Probably they don't want us students to take this as the 'easy way out' haha.<br />
<br />
<b>EDIT:Also found my laptop slowing down, and lagging like hell. </b><br />
<br />
In such delays, I've found myself more likely to go take a nap, oversleep, and look at my phone and waste time.<br />
<br />
I just got a hard drive and have tried to shift data from my laptop, so that it can breathe easier.<br />
<b>Speed improved, but still lags at times.</b><br />
<br />
Might need to check Windows cleanup again, or hit the subreddit for tech issues.<br />
<br />
<b>EDIT 2: Shit...I just spotted my Bible reading also stalled. I did some preliminary readings, but that was just that.</b><br />
<br />
Only got to have a few rounds of prayer journaling, and I tried WRITING vs TYPING.<br />
Somehow I managed to get more out when typing, but I also found more issues with my practices in writing a daily prayer journal.<br />
<br />
Those who are reading, and want to know about these, PM me, as I don't wanna toe the forum rules redline by posting it here and derail. But it's a very similar paradigm with Fastlane learning, reflection and communication.</div>
