<div class="bbWrapper">I&#039;ve been thinking the last few days about what my goal here should be. I&#039;m only going to track one metric: 20 calls dialed to relevant prospects per day. There&#039;s detail that I could provide with that, but in the spirit of this thread, I&#039;m not going to. That&#039;s the only metric I care about in my business right now. <br /> <br /> 20 calls per day. <br /> <br /> Apologies in advance because I&#039;m going to post my # of calls each day. I&#039;ll summarize actual results every friday. After a month, I&#039;ll reevaluate things and make adjustments as needed. <br /> <br /> Thanks for the kick in the butt...</div>

Yeah, the reason I was just tracking that one number is that I can explain anything away when I start getting into details. I figured that I&#039;d just track that one number and then revise as I go along. But, with how I&#039;m doing things, i don&#039;t have the efficiency / time to even hit that number. <br /> <br /> I will think on what you said. <br /> <br /> I&#039;m typing everything into hubspot, so I can pull more analytics out of it. <br /> <br /> One thing I&#039;m considering is hiring a virtual assistant to refine my list before I get to it. That way I don&#039;t waste time looking at websites to see what kind of company they are before I call them.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">My mentor preaches business owner execution is crucial to success, maybe the most important factor to winning.<br /> <br /> I am nowhere near as efficient as I think I am and I&#039;m going to dedicate myself to tracking weekly KPI&#039;s and updating here with my sheet once per week.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">So not much to report, I&#039;ve upheld all my obligations, but I still haven&#039;t gotten to set up a system to track my activities this week. I&#039;m not sure if I manage that the coming week either. At the moment besides coding on a website project to spice up my project portfolio I&#039;m also busy with ranking my project and business ideas. I do that because I&#039;m in the process of defining my short-term and medium-term goals which I prepare for a online course about motivation that I&#039;m doing currently.<br /> <br /> BTW, I also read everything and root for everyone here, but I only give thumbs up to people that I think manage to uphold a certain consistency (or else provide valuable info). Participating and writing down your faults is already worth much of course, but if you want more tangible support, you&#039;ll have to peform <img src="/community/imgs/emoticons/em-wink.png" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=";)" title="Wink ;)" data-shortname=";)" /></div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Not going to post a sheet because its only for 1 day. Will post a full sheet next friday.<br /> <br /> We did have some more execution this week. 1040 Dials and 3 Sales appointments set compared to 0 dials and 0 appointments the week before. The goal is to get that number up to 1500 dials weekly and 5 sales appointments weekly.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Glad to see this is still going. I&#039;ll post up my stats for the past while tomorrow if I have time.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Same same. All obligations uphold (although I&#039;ve been very .. flexible with them recently. Whatever as long as it keeps me on my toes a bit). Reached another milestone in my webproject, has been more hasslesome than anticipated though. Progress on my middleterm and longterm planning has been rather slow and I most likely won&#039;t set up a better system for tracking my activities by next week either. I think I&#039;m making some progress in being more mindful and responsible, though nothing dramatic. I hope I can develop more intrinsic motivation and control my thoughts better, been inspired recently by this video (&quot;brain bridging&quot; and shit): <div class="bbMediaWrapper" data-media-site-id="youtube" data-media-key="rxUZFKkdW4I"> <div class="bbMediaWrapper-inner"> <iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/rxUZFKkdW4I?wmode=opaque" loading="lazy" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe> </div> </div><i><span style="font-size: 10px"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxUZFKkdW4I" target="_blank" class="link link--external" rel="noopener">View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxUZFKkdW4I</a></span></i></div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Cool thread! I&#039;m working on losing weight. Right now, I&#039;m at about 213 pounds, but I want to get down to my high school weight of 170 pounds.<br /> <br /> I&#039;ll be tracking my food intake and exercise through MyFitnessPal. I have it set so that I will be in a 500 caloric deficit per day. I&#039;ll weigh myself every week and post my progress.<br /> <br /> Today, I ate half a pizza for lunch, which put me over for calories today, so that wasn&#039;t good. <br /> I made up for it a little by walking 2 1/2 miles though.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Alright, here&#039;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&#039;s report, even the fundamental goals above aren&#039;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&#039;s the goals I didn&#039;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&#039;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&#039;m still working on college assignments due in the coming week, so I&#039;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&#039;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&#039;t want us students to take this as the &#039;easy way out&#039; haha.<br /> <br /> <b>EDIT:Also found my laptop slowing down, and lagging like hell. </b><br /> <br /> In such delays, I&#039;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&#039;t wanna toe the forum rules redline by posting it here and derail. But it&#039;s a very similar paradigm with Fastlane learning, reflection and communication.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Here is what I track on the daily: Been tracking now for 3 months - Need to get my sleep better and my readiness &amp; sleep scores up. Most of these metrics are being tracked via Oura Ring. Absolute best $300 I&#039;ve ever spent. Its changed my life where I wake up at 5am effortlessly M-F and 6am on weekends.<br /> <br /> I&#039;m still a major work in progress but my mindset is better and I can make more informed data based decisions which has lead to more success in business and increased levels of fitness. I started tracking everything and treating myself like a machine. My new business is going to be based around this type of stuff.<br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/attachments/screen-shot-2019-10-14-at-3-28-17-pm-webp.28065/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/data/attachments/24/24694-16b721ef1f5139396cd9f50e3b5809c4.jpg?hash=btMmYhlS5W" class="bbImage " style="" alt="28065" title="28065" width="1300" height="135" loading="lazy" /></a>&#039;<br /> <br /> <b>The following columns are:</b><br /> Sleep Start<br /> Sleep End<br /> Sleep Duration<br /> Awake Time<br /> Light Sleep<br /> REM Sleep<br /> Deep Sleep<br /> Heart Rate Avg.<br /> Heart Rate Lowest<br /> Temperature Change<br /> Respitory Rate<br /> Heart Rate Variability<br /> Sleep Efficiency<br /> Readiness Score<br /> Sleep Score<br /> Alert (graded myself)<br /> Mood (graded myself)<br /> Sore (graded myself)<br /> Meditation<br /> Mindset Reading<br /> Diet Score (1 is best)<br /> Supplement: 1 = YES, 0=NO<br /> Workout (YES/NO)<br /> Work Duration<br /> Output<br /> Focus<br /> Reading (YES/NO)<br /> Win The Day? (YES/NO)<br /> Weight That Morning<br /> Calories Burned That Day<br /> <br /> I&#039;ll post these updated regularly - I&#039;m also on day 33 of #75hard. <br /> <br /> Current Goals: Increase output/focus, work duration, Increase sleep duration and REM sleep, Lose 8 lbs to get back into single digit body fat range and be stronger and more muscular than I&#039;ve ever been. Plus win the day at least 5/7 days per week. Basically get dialed in as humanly possible with strong morning and bedtime routines.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">This was the thread that made me join the forum, thanks <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> for starting it.<br /> <br /> I don&#039;t know anyone IRL who also tracks habit-related metrics, so it&#039;s very interesting to see what you guys track and how you keep yourselves productive. There are quite a few shared habits.<br /> I&#039;ve some metrics that I track on a whiteboard and journal, alongside SMART goals, but consistency has been my biggest challenge so far.<br /> <br /> For the next 100 days, I&#039;ll code everyday for at least one hour (see: <a href="https://www.100daysofcode.com/" target="_blank" class="link link--external" rel="noopener">100daysofcode</a>) and I&#039;ll post here what I learned on each day. I&#039;ve tried to learn programming in the past, but never went very far (wouldn&#039;t be able to make a calculator today). At the end it might give people who are considering learning programming an idea of what you can do after ~3 months of self study. I&#039;ll be using the <a href="https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-0001-introduction-to-computer-science-and-programming-in-python-fall-2016/readings/)" target="_blank" class="link link--external" rel="noopener">MIT OCW</a> course, which is free, and the recommended book.<br /> <br /> I&#039;ll also post meditation time and whether I exercised or not, alongside the amount of book pages I went through.<br /> <br /> I&#039;ll start with yesterday:<br /> <div class="bbCodeSpoiler"> <button type="button" class="button bbCodeSpoiler-button button--longText" data-xf-click="toggle" data-xf-init="tooltip" title="Click to reveal or hide spoiler"><span class="button-text"> <span>Spoiler: <span class="bbCodeSpoiler-button-title">Day #1</span></span> </span></button> <div class="bbCodeSpoiler-content"> <div class="bbCodeBlock bbCodeBlock--spoiler"> <div class="bbCodeBlock-content">Learned about:<br /> The difference between Declarative knowledge and Imperative knowledge<br /> What&#039;s an algorithm<br /> Primitive operators, syntax, static-semantics, semantics<br /> Scalar objects (int, float, bool, none)<br /> type() function<br /> Basic operations<br /> Naming variables<br /> keywords<br /> you can do this x, y = y, x</div> </div> </div> </div><br /> <br /> <div class="bbTable"> <table style='width: 100%'><tr><td><div style="text-align: left">&#8203;</div></td><td><div style="text-align: center">&#8203;</div></td><td><div style="text-align: left">Meditation&#8203;</div></td><td><div style="text-align: left">Exercise&#8203;</div></td><td><div style="text-align: left">Book page&#8203;</div></td><td><div style="text-align: left">Pages gain&#8203;</div></td></tr><tr><td><div style="text-align: left">10/14/19&#8203;</div></td><td><div style="text-align: center">Monday&#8203;</div></td><td><div style="text-align: right">0&#8203;</div></td><td><div style="text-align: right">0&#8203;</div></td><td><div style="text-align: right">27&#8203;</div></td><td><div style="text-align: right"><span style="color: rgb(65, 168, 95)">+27</span>&#8203;</div></td></tr></table> </div></div>
