I'm going to split my status updates today into two parts. I am still doing the RotG missions and want to post Day 2.
1. What three accomplishments would you like to achieve to make you happier? [list] - Get into a body shape in which my stomach does not distend. Not a six-pack, just a flat stomach while continuing to build and tone muscle. - Save $1000 in my savings account by the end of this summer. - Sign a client to have their photo taken. A paid photography gig.
2. What are the reasons these accomplishments will make you happier? - I am loving my body more daily and that is due to the hard work I have been putting in at the gym. I am seeing results and I am getting more confident about my appearance daily. I want to continue this. - I want to be able to have some spare money to enjoy experiences that I have been putting off for years. Primarily traveling out of the state. I love to travel. - Photography has been a hobby I have been doing for the last 5 and a half years. I have gained great feedback from my friends and it's given me the confidence and encouragement to progress. People love my work.
3. What is my personal mission?
I will become a man who will be a well-known photographer in this area within 8-10 months.
4. List three specific results that will let you know that you've accomplished your mission.
- I will have completed three paid portrait photography sessions. - I will have clients who come back for repeat sessions - My bank account for my photography will show me that I am serious about turning this into a side-business
Because if I don't pursue it now, I will continue to suffer over the next year and - My motivation to continue to my interests will decrease and fail. - My resolution to see my personal goals will decrease and I will be complacent with things as is again. - My motivation to pursue other interests decrease.
But if I do pursue it now, I will enjoy the next few years and - My enthusiasm for my hobbies will increase over time. - My curiousity to continue to build on top of what I have accomplished will increase over time. - My determination to be the best will improve over time.
I will finish the mission of making eye contact with strangers and note their eye color by the end of this day.
