It is 11pm on Sunday night. I just got home from several hours with friends at a restaurant.
I spent the bulk of they day with family before that. So today was packed with good times among family and friends. I had to set an alarm to write this post so I don't interrupt my streak that is about to hit 100.
The week was also pretty busy. I was at WeWork for 3 days during the week. I made progress in a few areas that I had planned to get done.
One thing I had put off for a while that I completed this week was an application for HGTV. The home remodeling TV show. My brother has been having a hard time getting contractors to complete any renovation work. It seems everyone and their mother is working on home remodeling so contractor are in high demand. Even when you are willing to pay more, you can't get them anymore. So I had the brilliant idea of applying to the TV show to be features as a home for renovation. The great thing about being on the show is that you get everything done very well by code. And on time. Unfortunately, one of the emails bounced. Gmail informed me that the mailbox is full. I didn't know that was even possible with gmail. HGTV literally had too many people with the same idea due to the same problem.
I am still hopeful that the other email would get my brother's house featured.
I also made some progress with my research for a new business idea. Made some decisions there. Also got to read several interesting books on blinkist which helped me to pivot and be more methodical in what my next steps will be.
Not too happy with my sleep. I seem to need to be in bed for more than 10 hours to get 8 hours of sleep. Not sure why that is happening now but I am going all in on sleep the coming week.
All in all - a good full week. Even a fairly good month.

I know you've been guarded on sharing them, is that because you're scared of sharing them with others? Or maybe you're scared that the idea will be stolen? Or something else that I'm not imagining?
My new business idea is to charge people to get a private access to the decisions around new business ideas.
If I had an idea that I felt was so unique that I had to guard it, I would consider that a creativity success. I am nowhere near that.
I have shared many ideas, affirmations, declaration on these daily writings since 200WaD. I have done some of the ideas but mostly I have not. I want to change how I am doing things so I am spending a lot of time looking at my failures and what I should do differently.
The one thing I want to do for sure is avoid spending money to try and do something everyone else is doing. That has been my MO in the past and got me multiple failures.
