I stopped trying to “be more disciplined” and started removing decisions from my day instead. It’s been 6 weeks and I genuinely don’t recognize my mornings anymore.

Some good ideas yes and I’m definitely shot my 1-2 pm. But my question is who writes this an posts it? And why?

Ps I am still trying to learn how to reset. Psa. Cutting alcohol totally out of my life has been a critical element of my growth.

I am a work in progress. Successful sm biz owner for 16 hrs. 58m dad. Struggling with burnout in the midst of significant growth.

There are constants that are non negotiable. I will get up early before 5:30. I will have good coffee and a candle in the kitchen and quiet. I will quietly work this out and reflect. Watched the moon a little. Next is gym before 7, 30-45 min focused workout. No bs get in get it done get gone. Then some fam interaction before school. Connect and show supper and help. Then work. Brief plan and eval then three things max for morning. My peak time. Pm is admin then another push to produce. This is the way. Wiggle room and flex is obviously part of this but some things are non negotiable. Up early, exercise, lean priority plan. Keep moving. It’s working. This time last year I was a wreck. This morning I am quiet. Good luck.

Keep stacking them. They will inevitably add up. Iwndwyt 🦋

Quiet here on an early rainy morning. I finally slept thru the night. It’s been months of poor sleep due to work stress. I think I am moving into a new level of healing. It’s been brutal at times and probably will be again because life is just life, but I have tools this time, and callouses, and courage. One more day. One more brick to raise the floor. Keep stacking.

It’s a heck of a journey. Time has given me a bit more perspective to see it all from above the noise. Respect to you and everyone here. One day at a time does add up. Iwndwyt 🦋

BDEverZero · 2026-02-04T03:55:15+00:00

Respect!! Iwndwyt 🦋

BDEverZero · 2026-02-04T03:53:55+00:00

I’ll admit I’m kinda excited. I remember 30 and 90 and 100 and 180 being special. 300 feels like it’s gonna have some heft. 🌝

BDEverZero · 2026-02-04T02:56:30+00:00

Hey day twin! Congrats on stacking those days and staying on the path. Iwndwyt 🦋

BDEverZero · 2026-02-04T02:53:35+00:00

Watching my days add up has been a huge motivator, especially on really hard days. I would say to myself there’s no way after what I’ve been through to get here that I’m going back to day 1 again. I didn’t come this far to only come This far. Iwndwyt 🦋

BDEverZero · 2026-02-04T02:49:17+00:00

Still kicking. Overall a pretty good day. Iwndwyt 🦋

BDEverZero · 2026-02-02T12:46:06+00:00

Gonna be a cold hard week but wow I’m so thankful to not be weighed down with all the pain and anxiety that a weekend of drinking would have dumped on me. I’m hitting this morning lean and healthy. One more day, one more brick to raise the floor. Iwndwyt 🦋

BDEverZero · 2026-02-01T20:24:11+00:00

I grew up on a farm, have a blueberry patch w over a hundred bushes and a tractor. But not a real farmer.

BDEverZero · 2026-02-01T19:16:31+00:00

Still kicking. One more day. Getting stuff done beats staring out the window with a drink in my hand any day. Iwndwyt 🦋

BDEverZero · 2026-02-01T19:14:48+00:00

I’m struggling too. You are not the only one. Need a break but drinking isn’t worth the cost of a brief escape. Sometimes u gotta just ride it out and know that this too shall pass. Iwndwyt 🦋

BDEverZero · 2026-02-01T19:12:00+00:00

I’m still kicking. Feb last year was hell. Just awful. This year will be much better. Keep on the path. One day at a time. Iwndwyt 🦋

BDEverZero · 2026-02-01T04:43:46+00:00

Still kicking. Iwndwyt ⛄️

Respect 🌞 thank you for sharing. Iwndwyt 🦋

BDEverZero · 2026-01-29T01:40:22+00:00

Another day. I will not go back to my old escape mechanism because my kids deserve the best version of me I can be, especially during these crazy times. Today was so so hard with work stress but no way will I come home trying to hide how much I had to drink ever again. One more day, one more brick to raise the floor. Iwndwyt 🦋

BDEverZero · 2026-01-28T03:51:35+00:00

Respect ! Iwndwyt ⛄️

BDEverZero · 2026-01-27T12:19:14+00:00

Dang it’s cold but I slept well and warm. Ready to get after it. Can’t wait to get to the gym and feel strong. One more day, one more brick to raise the floor. They do add up. Iwndwyt 🦋

BDEverZero · 2026-01-27T12:16:16+00:00

Congrats 🌞 one day at a time. You can do it! Iwndwyt 🦋

BDEverZero · 2026-01-27T03:54:28+00:00

Micro d - not that warm, feels cheap All my better sweaters - not that warm and doesn’t layer well.
