My Radical Redirection To Change My Life in the Next 6 Months

<p>I&rsquo;ve been at war with life for some time.</p> <p>The morning routine (the one I&rsquo;ve been perfecting for 6 days straight) gets its first outing and disaster strikes: I sleep in. I&rsquo;m mortified. The feeling bleeds into the day.</p> <p>Another example of me failing at this life thing. First, it was the running habit that lasted 4 days, then it was the morning routine that never took off, and then it was the business that never worked.</p> <p>All signs were leading to one obvious fact: I was a failure.</p> <h1>Fighting life</h1> <p>For most of my life, I&rsquo;ve been at war with life.</p> <p>When things don&rsquo;t work out, I throw my hands up, my cortisol levels go through the roof, and I&rsquo;m kicking and screaming like a toddler.</p> <p>I&rsquo;d feel low, get the flu, feel exhausted and it was a cocktail for self-deprecation.</p> <p><em>What is wrong with me?</em></p> <p><em>Why does this happen to me?</em></p> <p><em>How come I can&rsquo;t be the person I want to be?</em></p> <p>Those were the conversations I had in my head for the longest time. Over and over. Of course, I&rsquo;d never reach an answer. In many ways, they weren&rsquo;t questions, they were statements.</p> <p>The statements of my life.</p> <h1>Discipline, perfectionism and a dose of reality</h1> <p>I&rsquo;ve probably told you this but I tried to wake up at 5 am for a while.</p> <p>It was in aspirations to be the best version of me, write 16 times more than I was at the time and become a New York Times Bestseller. Funny, none of those things happened.&nbsp;<em>Must have been because I never stuck to that morning routine.</em></p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/mind-cafe/my-radical-redirection-to-change-my-life-in-the-next-6-months-7d23ffaa66ce"><strong>Visit Now</strong></a></p>
