First time not journaling in a while but I don't feel too bad about it.
Sunday, I started the day off being marketed to by Robin Sharma's incessant emails, from which I purchased some of his courses. Idt I'm doing badly that this course is going to radically transform me. But if there's just a few (or even just one) thing that sticks with me long term, then the ROI will have been worth it.
Spent the majority of Sunday trying to get my website updated. But in the process, I broke some things. So I started down the route of starting the website over from scratch. Last night I started from a blank template, created my custom theme, spent a good bit of time on the header and the home page. Trying to make it more mobile friendly in terms of how users can get to my content quicker. I'll be spending more time than I had originally planned but I think it's worth it since it's been ~9 months with the same website.
Was watching August Bradley's Identity Sculpting video on Sunday as well and something resonated with me. The values we have individually as a family, as a company, as a country - they're not something we strive for - they're unquestionable standards. They are the minimum floor for what we will not go below. For me, it's not making an effort to learn. Learning should be an unquestionable part of who I am that it's something that never leaves me.
Habits have the same kinda reasoning. They're setting the floor for my day, week, month, quarter, year, life. If even in my fluctuations across these time periods, I can continue the regular habits that I know I have great long-term impact, then I'm creating a higher floor for myself (as well as a higher ceiling). Similar to Pat Riley's metric he used for his Lakers players to make sure their average was better than their opponent's averages.
