Wasting time is a very big thing for me. I easily waste a lot of time doing things that are not important. I easily get distracted. Not the best thing to do.

I need to do manage my time better. Much better.

Yesterday, I said that I will start waking up at 5:30am and no TV in the morning. I followed up and delivered today. No TV in the morning. It’s tempting. I would love to see and check out what’s going on. But when I do that, I don’t get to read my motivational things, like quotes, like my kindle.

I need to force myself to do the things that are not comfortable for me. This is going to be a challenge. A real one. A really, really big one. But I can do that. Why? Because it’s good for me. It’s what I NEED to do. And it’s great to change things up and do the things that make me better.

I think I have the tools required to do it. I think I have the motivation to do it. That’s who I am. That’s why I have been successful in my professional life. I have been moving up every year. I have been learning a lot every year. I need to keep doing that.

My son Fabian is not listening. He is playing tough with my wife. She doesn’t have a lot of control over him. I think he needs to be kept on a short leash. I know it’s tough. I have to learn a lot. My wife has to learn a lot as well. I keep telling her daily. I found a few books that should help me. I need to read them. I also need to document what I learn so I can remember and apply it later on, if need to.

One thing I told my wife today is that she shouldn’t always start with a NO. She should set some rules and then rewards based on whether he does them. If not, still reward others. Also, after she sees that he did something right, compliment and reward him! It’s a work in progress.
