I physically dumped all that text into a cheap, lined notebook. I didn’t use a spreadsheet, didn’t use any fancy tracking app. I just wrote it down, one item after the other. It was pure manual entry. Then, the real processing began. I cleaned it up. I distilled it down to three key areas I needed help with: Money Focus, Energy Management, and Simple Social Contacts.
Money Focus: Find the three most repeated colors or directions mentioned. (The winner was ‘green’ and ‘East’). I decided to wear something green every other day, and start my morning walk by facing East. Low effort, done. Energy Management: Find the three most repeated ‘avoid’ dates or activities. (The winners were “Avoid signing papers on the 14th” and “Don’t lend equipment near the 25th”). I marked these dates with a big X and committed to just saying no to those activities. Simple Social Contacts: Find the most repeated advice about signs to watch out for. (The winner was ‘Water Signs’—mostly Cancer and Pisces). I vowed to actually return the calls from my Pisces cousin I had been ignoring. The entire month of July, I ran the test. I lived by that stupid, simple list. I didn’t change my job, didn’t change my diet much, just integrated those three simple rules. I checked the notebook every morning while the coffee was brewing, just to keep the data points fresh.
