Inspired by the group rationality diary and open thread, this is the second goal setting journal (GSJ) thread.
If you have a goal worth setting then it goes here.
Notes for future GSJ posters:
1. Please add the 'gsj' tag.
2. Check if there is an active GSJ thread before posting a new one. (Immediately before; refresh the list-of-threads page before posting.)
3. GSJ Threads should be posted in Discussion, and not Main.
4. GSJ Threads should run for no longer than 1 week, but you may set goals, subgoals and tasks for as distant into the future as you please.
5. No one is in charge of posting these threads. If it's time for a new thread, and you want a new thread, just create it.
No actions yet. I tend to ignore any kind of actions that I plan; maybe the problem is the wrong way my brain thinks about it, so this is an attempt to change the brain before I really attemt to change the body.
A suggestion: Can you think of systems that you can set up for you to do the actions tomorrow. It's suprisingly harder to convince yourself to go for a run right now; but surprisingly easier to set up an expectation that you will do it later/tomorrow.
Simply the act of preparing your running stuff, (shoes, water bottle etc.), then put it in a place where you can't ignore it. (i.e. a doorway) so that you "just do it".
might be a viable course of action to get you to do the desired thing...
