VISUALIZATION

I know I've gained a lot of weight.

Still, I visualize weighing less tomorrow than I do today.

Today's weight:  204 (using the gym type scale in the closet of this airbnb)

I visualize weighing less tomorrow.

READING, WRITING

Read 70 seconds in SAPIENS by Yuval Noah Harari.  He says that around 640 BC in Australia, the first coins struck in history were struck.  They were called Lydian coins, after the king of Lydia.  They removed the need for a merchant to constantly weigh ingots of silver or gold; they were stamped with the exact content & guaranteed by the King/government.

Read 70 seconds in YOU ARE A WRITER by Jeff Goins.  He says I need to create a "brand" for myself; and the brand is both who I am, and also my better, truer self.  IOW, the real me.  And how do I establish my brand?  BY MAKING MYSELF MEMORABLE.

**  It's been over a month since I read from these books.  But my memory is ok - I can still recall reading the last paragraphs I read back then.  So it's not all that catastrophic that I didn't read for over a month.  It's disturbing, though, in that I have not made too much progress.

But today's a new day.  I'm starting on 12/27 so that I can be up and running on January 1st.  I want to move into 2021 already doing these things, so I won't hurt so much (exercise) or be "disconnected" so much (reading, writing).

I have a lot to do, and today is a good day for me to begin again, since it's a day of rest, and I have no obligations to be anywhere.
