Wow, writing things down in a blog really helps
Soon after I wrote the habits I am taking on, I realized that I gotta do a reality check of my current standing. Looks like, I was again in wonderland… I had thought that I had been doing pretty well with a good amount of discipline. But thanks, I have come back to reality again.
Now, 1 complain about Robin Sharma (whose work I had been resisting a bit). He says that you just gotta give 15 mins of your time daily to the program. But with his all new exercises increasing day by day, I guess I need 2-3 hours to do them properly everyday as of today (day
and would require about 5 hours a day after another 20 days. I am finding this Megaliving thing highly confronting. And I guess the sheer reason that I am still following it to the best of my capabilities is that I feel its testing the best of me. Besides I know that if I can do this thing “the way it is meant to be done”, I will never ever complain about my being indisciplined or lazy. And yes I am seeing some results coming too.
1 reason why I resist Robin’s work is because I don’t want to use some techniques to transform my life. Self realization is a beautiful blissful process. But after really confronting it and questioning myself, I realized that I am fine with using techniques or whatever it takes to get what I want in life. Its the fear of people saying “abe oye! you used all these techniques to succeed” that was stopping me. But as I said, I have taken on becoming independent of peoples’ opinions while still being attentive to them.
So here is my daily routine:-
(Mind you, there are a lot of things that I have inserted because I liked doing them on my own, besides Megaliving’s influence)
