I'm using this site to publicly display my weekly standards.

I'm doing this so that I can track and improve my progress.

The goal is to have a balanced, self-managed life.

Inspired by Jake Has Standards.
February 1
My Standards are back. I’m not sure if I can survive without this system now. The first day that I experimented with stopping began with me eating a ‘marijuana edible caramel’ and completely wrecking myself. I believe this happened because there was no system in place telling me that I should be doing something more important. Here are the changes I made: a) Descriptive sub-titles - I did this to make my log more interesting and so that I can really understand the benefit I’m receiving when I look at it. b) “Practice” category - This was inspired by a conversation I had with my friend Ryan a few weeks ago. Whatever he said made me realize that I can be great at anything as long as there’s consistent practice - something most people will not do, and if they do, won’t be able to sustain. My thought process for this category was somewhere along the lines of “Since all it takes is practice to be great at something, let me just add everything I want to become great at”. Basically, the difficult part is sustaining it, which won’t be difficult for me since I’m aware of this and have a system in place to ensure that. Teaching myself Spanish this week will be fun!
