2.  List what we would do with more time

For tomorrow, we'll...
List why our main project is important to us.  What's the reason?  How will it affect our life?
Schedule time to work on our main project

A Big Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!  I'm spending Thanksgiving with my parents' and sis which is nice.    I'll go for a pre-meal walk later today.  : )

Success is where preparation and opportunity meet.

For today, we'll make a cover page for our Success Tool Kit* which we've been working on.  We'll also see how we're progressing with our list of projects and we'll aim to reduce our use of technology for today.  Here's the plan -

1.  Reduce our technology habit---Watch less TV, silence the cell phone for 2 hours or to decrease our use of the computer..  As always, do what works for you.


2.  Make a cover page for our Success Tool Kit - For this you can use the computer or design a cover page by hand.  A key point to remember is to be creative.  You can create a cover page with some of the inspiring images that you viewed yesterday or use an image of yourself   You can also give the cover a title and/or decorate it with positive words.

 3.  Review our progress with our list of projects/priorities.  Are there finished projects that you can now transfer to your completed list?  Are there projects that are no longer important to you?  Or on the other hand, are there projects that you need to remind yourself about?  During the week, aim to work on 4 projects at a time.  (You can review Days 3 and 5 for more information about making a list of projects.)

*Your Success Tool Kit should have the information which we've worked on gathering this week.  You can put your tool kit in its own binder or use a divider to separate it from the other material we've been working on.  Your Success Tool Kit should have the following--
Lists of
 Strengths
 What you enJoy
 "Gratitude"
 Resources (supportive people & resources that can help you with your goal)
 Inspiring Quotes
 Empowering Affirmation(s)
 Completed Projects (an ongoing list)
Ideal Life Description
Articles on
 An Inspiring Person
 Your Main Project
Motivating Images

Day 15
Rate yourself on plan
Sleeping
Breathing

Tomorrow, we'll move into our third theme for this plan which is renewing our energy. We'll be working on our sleeping, eating and fitness habits.  If you want to be ready for our third theme, you can decide on 2/more energizing foods to add to your "menu."  Using the links below, find what works best for you.  For instance, I don't "endorse" all of the foods mentioned in the prevention.com article but it may suit someone else's eating style.

Of course, use common sense on this program and the standard of checking with a medical professional before beginning a health/fitness program applies here.

We're now 1/3 of the way into our Life Improvement Plan.  Hopefully, you're seeing some changes in your life or at least you're beginning to think more about the life you'd like to live.  Have patience with this and, as always, congratulate yourself for taking time to improve your life.  For today, we'll review our list of projects/priorities and we'll add yet another list to our growing collection.  Here's today's plan -
1.  Review the list of priorities which you created on Day 6
     How are you progressing with your main priority?
     Do you need to schedule your listed priorities into your day?

2.  Create an enJoy List - List what you enjoy doing or what brings you joy. 
     You can list anything big or small here.  What counts is that it's something that
     uplifts/relaxes you.  For additional ideas, you can also look at your Ideal Day
     to see if it includes any activities that you'd like to do more of.

And next....
Day 11
List people who support and encourage you
List resources - people and information that can help you with your projects/challenges
List what you're grateful for

As a reminder, next week, we'll focus on improving our energy.  We'll be working on our sleeping, eating and fitness habits.  Of course, use common sense on this program and the standard of checking with a medical professional before beginning a health/fitness program applies here.
