Also note!!

It is CENTERED ON THIS PAGE.

You know, the way you want YOURS to be?  Maybe have a look at their code...???? lol

...

1. Music.

Motherfucker.  Of course it has some simple, discreet, yet charming and inspirational music.

Fortunately there's free music out there... where the fuck was it again?


2. Easy creation of slides will make the ACTUAL creation of all slides possible within 1-2 hours easily (at least to a PASSING level).... So all I need... is the software.  And I have 1-2 hours to find it, install it, and learn how to use it.

Started by googling:
easy, animated video slides

...Seems promising.  Animoto is on there... hmmm

3. Tested animoto.  It's legit as FUCK, full 1080 d/l and will fit right on into my videos.  I can time to the second, only prob seems to be a 40s max but i have to agree stalling for 40s would be WAAY boring.

$44 for 30 days.  Make sure you cancel.

The Return of Word

Let's talk framework for a second...

My consistent discipline is getting worse and worse.

My goal was to be doing a morning ritual EVERY DAY at this point.

I'm supposed to be solid as fuck right now.

The power hour shouldn't be this thing you come into where you need to "re-establish" the context every morning... which then falls apart soon after starting.

And I certainly shouldn't be dealing with days like today and yesterday where my content (1 up hour by hour) is being flooded with trolls to the point that I'm barely pulling in "4"'s.

With a weak frame, context can only be so strong, and it buckles under pressure.  And as context goes, content flows into the new shape that the context has broken down into.

STRONG DISCIPLINE REQUIRES A STRONG FRAME.

You've read it a 100x -- you can't be an entrepreneur if you can't even start your day powerfully -- and this is all the proof you need.

More importantly, this is why being completely unreasonable to following through with "your word" is so important.

And it's a DIRECT correlation.  50% integrity of showing up to ROARS and I feel lucky if I get 1 of 2 hours in.  My goal becomes to "really" get started by 6.

Is it a coincidence that I also happen to be doing a morning ritual 50% of the time, and tracking size between 7a-10a and 1p-3p 50% of the time?

Easy to justify things with meetings, month end, deals, blah, blah, blah.  Harder to deny that hard 50% #'s across the board probably are causing each other.

The morning ritual sets the frame, but it doesn't complete it, it just sets it up.  It's completed by the 15/10/5 meditations, the 5 times you log your size, the clock in at 5, and the push to complete whichever of the 19 objectives you choose within the budgeted time frame.

Now that you see the significance of word again, it's time to get this back into your head:

YOU HAVE NO CHOICE.  YOU ALREADY CHOSE.

Your word MUST be followed as soon as you realize that following it is in question.  There are NO EXCEPTIONS.  It's not that I expect perfect integrity, but it IS that I expect an attempt to follow NO MATTER WHAT if you're in a situation where you are aware of it.

You shouldn't have any problem doing this.  You're legit.  You embrace pain and suffering.  You're willing to lose sleep and get super stressed out to follow through on discipline.  You just lost your way when it comes to what giving your word means (as defined by Landmark) and why it's important.

Time to come back to the path.  Without your word, the path disappears under the overgrowth of the jungle.  With solid word, it's like a perfectly paved road.  It is time to commit again.

IT'S ALL ABOUT THE FRAME FIRST.  THEN -- AND ONLY THEN -- DOES EVERYTHING ELSE COME INTO PLAY.

There's a reason that Sundays are WAAAY better now.  It's the framed structure you setup.

So just going to say it...

If you don't do your morning ritual you are warping your WHOLE DAY.  And there's NO WAY to fix it.  If you do everything else perfect, the frame will be pretty good... maybe 90, 95% good... but it'll still be warped.  YOU MUST START YOUR DAY WITH A SOLID FRAME, THE SAME WAY YOU WOULDN'T SKIP ON FOLLOWING THE SUNDAY STRUCTURE.
