Iāve been pondering this question a lot lately. Iāve even daydreamed about the answerāwhat would life look like? How would my mental health change? What kind of person would I become?
The goal, though, feels massiveāalmost impossible. No one is that perfect, and neither am I.
To me, 100% is an aspirationāa motivation to stay consistent and keep pushing myself forward. Achieving it demands discipline, countless experiments with scheduling, tweaking habit patterns, diving into reading, and, most importantly, executing plans.
Itās challenging, especially because I often create plans only to leave them untouched. My ADHD and anxiety donāt make it easier. Yet, I love that I keep tryingāstill dreaming, still aiming high, still putting in effort.
Itās easy to plan things; executing them is where the real battle lies.
So, Iāve come up with an approach for this goal: What if I gamify (is that even a word?) my progress? I could design levels, like a game.
- Level 1: Two 10-minute meditation sessions daily, two running sessions weekly, and three gym visits.
- Level 2: Increase meditation time and add more running sessions.
- And so on, progressing incrementally until I reach Level 5.
Itās exciting to map out plans and fill the calendar with ideas. But looking too far ahead, I know it will be immensely hard to stick with them. Still, Iām curious to see how this journey unfolds.
Letās see where it takes me.
