Morning Routine, General Diary, Thoughts, and Ideas Well, after a short break for Christmas and New Year, I’m back with my daily journal entries. I got up very late this morning as I spent most of the evening arguing with my teenage son trying to get him to go to bed. When I eventually got […]

Morning Routine, General Diary, Thoughts, and Ideas Got up a little late and completed my morning routine.  My brother contacted me to say he’d caught a cold, which means Christmas at my brother’s is canceled tomorrow as my son hasn’t enough lymphocytes in his blood to fight off a virus yet.

Morning Routine, General Diary, Thoughts, and Ideas I got up pretty late today and completed most of my morning routine. Not had a great day today, if I’m honest, I think all the issues with my son’s health and bone marrow transplant hit me in the face a little today. I’m not usually one to […]

Morning Routine, General Diary, Thoughts, and Ideas Another night at home, I woke up at silly o’clock for me, around 5:30 am so I started my morning routine, including my Win Hoff breathing exercises, but then decided that I would be absolutely knackered and useless all day if I didn’t try and get some more sleep. […]

Morning Routine, General Diary, Thoughts, and Ideas Another night staying in hospital for me, I slept kind of ok, got up and did most of my morning routine. Did some more exercises in the bathroom. Very small profit on horse bot yesterday. Mainly because the computer I have running it was at home and must have updated […]

Morning Routine, General Diary, Thoughts, and Ideas Slept in the hospital last night, I had a good night’s sleep, however, I woke up far too early.

Morning Routine, General Diary, Thoughts, and Ideas Slept at home again last night and went to bed rather late, maybe 12:30am, but I had a great nights sleep, I think I only got up once in the night.

Morning Routine, General Diary, Thoughts, and Ideas Just an average night’s sleep last night in the hospital, I find the bed Ok, but the room is just far too warm for my liking. Due to being in the hospital I only partially completed my morning routine. The new strategy for the horse bot didn’t work, […]

Morning Routine, General Diary, Thoughts, and Ideas Another great night’s sleep at home got up early and completed my morning routine. AI horse gambling bot had another bad day, so I have adjusted the strategy for today, here’s hoping that it will result in a better day. Had a catch-up call with my friend Dave […]

Morning Routine And General Diary Slept back at home today so was able to fully complete my morning routine. Amazon shopping order came first thing. It’s not as good as Tesco was, you don’t really know what they’ve missed out and it’s quite expensive for what you get. Might get my brother to do a Lidl […]

Morning Routine And General Diary Well to say that I slept on a pull-down bed in the hospital last night I didn’t have too bad a night’s sleep! The only slight problem I had was the room was a little too warm for my liking. The morning routine has gone to pot today, I’ve only done […]

Morning Routine And General Diary I slept Ok last night, possibly drank a few too many Friday night glasses of Vino, I got up and completed my morning routine.

Morning Routine And General Diary Completed my morning routine, and had a great nights sleep last night.

Morning Routine And General Diary Completed my morning routine, and had a much better night’s sleep last night! Our AI horse gambling bot had a bad day yesterday, we only won a couple of quid all day, I guess some profit is better than a loss though. Don’t think I had much success with our AI […]

Morning Routine And General Diary Completed my morning routine, wouldn’t say I felt the best though as I had a shocking night’s sleep, can possibly blame the Friday night extra glass of red wine! My wife and I went for a short lunchtime walk down the canal near where we live in Leeds, UK. Then […]

Morning Routine And General Diary Did My morning routine this morning, although once again didn’t get to affirmations and visualizations, maybe need to get up a little earlier! I had a meeting early doors with my business partner to discuss the EPOS system that a customer has requested. Running three only very slightly modified horse bot […]

Morning Routine And General Diary I managed to start My morning routine this morning, I got as far as the affirmations. Today was a take our son to hospital day, so most of the day is a write-off. It turned out to be a complete waste of a day too, as they kept us there […]

Morning Routine And General Diary My morning routine didn’t quite go to plan today as I woke up at about 3:30am and therefore decided to publish a change that needed putting live on our booking system product, PlanIt-BookIt. The change was to get people to opt in to getting their scores published on a proper league ranking […]

Morning Routine And General Diary Well, once again I started the day with my new and constantly improving morning routine.  Going to try and continue with my Keto diet again today, so hardly any carbs. I lost 1Kg from yesterdays efforts, down from 114KG to 113KG, I need to lost a lot more though! As […]

Started the day with my morning routine. I’ve made a copy of it and put it in a personal OneNote folder so that I can check off items as I’ve completed them. I’ve also decided to try and do a keto diet this week, I have followed it before and I do tend to lose […]

Today has been a relatively productive day. I started the day with my still-in-progress morning routine. I created a rather decent, large Full English breakfast for my wife, son, and me. Then I also created a decent chill for later in our slow cooker. I find the chili recipe on BBC website to be one […]

Today was a bit of a blur if I’m honest and I’ve forgotten most of what I did.I did kind of start the day a little with the start of my (in progress) morning routine. One of my many projects is a gambling-AI-bot project of which there are two of them, one of which focuses […]

Ok, for now, my second journal entry is going to continue with more learnings from my Miracle Mornings book that I am currently reading. The book started explaining the benefits of meditation, which is something that I definitely need to learn more about. Apparently, meditation reduces stress and improves your overall health. It has also […]

Well here we go, this is my first-ever journal entry, and currently, I really don’t know much about journaling so I will probably just use it, for now, to summarize what I’m learning in the Miracle Morning book that I am currently reading and maybe add one or two things as I go about my […]
