Day Two

Ok so today was a much bigger challenge to get my Power Hour in than the previous day, and that's is great part to my girls who don't seem to like sleeping in any long period of time. They also seem to have some kind of tag team plan going on who comes into my room every 30-60 minutes during the night needing a drink, or bathroom, or a bad dream, and then a new one, my 3 year old asked me for a sandwich last night about 2:00 in the morning, but I think that was part of her dream cause she quickly fell back to sleep after the request as I left her room trying not to laugh to loud.

Gratitude - I remember once reading, "whatever your greatest challenge is be grateful for those things and then it won't be such a challenge anymore. You won't dread it but look forward to it." So most of my gratitude journal today included my daughters and feeling grateful that they feel safe coming to me when they have bad dreams, and grateful that they can't seem to get enough of me during the day so they have to keep waking me up at night! :)

Physical - even though a little sleep deprived, I'm actually feeling not quite as tight today so I did more stretching and a few free standing exercises. I usually have a tendency to go to the gym after weeks of not and work super hard and then I never go back. So I'm glad I'm breaking myself in a little smarter this time and not sprinting of the starting line...on a side note though my physical track will continue tonight as I have another Church ball game, so lets see if I still feel good and loose tomorrow.

Mental - I spent about an hour on this alone today with my drive into work and the 10 minutes in the morning. I listened to Garrett's audio on Producer vs Consumer again. I'm stuck here I think for a while, I haven't felt that huge break through mentally yet. I need to get my head around this and start thinking the right way.

Soul Purpose - studied Alma 17 today, Ammon and the King's flocks. Love that story, but I noticed that when the flocks were scattered that the other servants immediately started fearing but Ammon started rejoicing at the opportunity to raise to a challenge. What a great scarcity vs abundance mindset example.

Financial - Set daily goals and action items for work, and took care of mail and a bill.

Social - made some plans for date night on Friday and family day on Saturday, can't share too many details though, my wife reads this blog (I think) and I want some of it to be a surprise...
