Daddy, Tat, and I went to sleep about 3:30. About 5 I woke up and just couldn&rsquo;t sleep. I knew I was going to end up waking up and tried to start thinking of productive things I could do. I had origionally got up thinking I&rsquo;d write out my scenerios for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.line-of-sight.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GunBunny<\/a>. As usual, I checked mail then went through the small list of blogs I read, Daddy&rsquo;s being one of them. I found a link to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.43folders.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">43 Folders<\/a>&nbsp;on his site and starting looking through it. Interestingly enough, this sparked my &ldquo;motivation&rdquo; need and I spent a good 4 hours surfing through related sites and articles. The below is a list of things I think you all might find useful and that I want to keep track of so I can go make use of them.<\/p>\n<p>I&rsquo;m happy to note that this was a self-motivated activity and I didn&rsquo;t have to get in trouble to do it. I&rsquo;ve also started keeping a Gratitude Journal again. I guess I&rsquo;m pretty bad at taking my own advice. Since I just started I&rsquo;m going to have to give it a week to see if it will help improve my outlook and mood but I have a feeling it will. I&rsquo;ll keep you updated on it.<\/p>\n<p>Check out these links.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.43things.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">43 Things<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/wiki.43folders.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">43Folders Wiki<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tin.nhs.uk\/tools--techniques\/links-to-other-tt\/hidden\/brainstorming\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trent Improvement Network: A hidden list of ways to improve performance<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.43folders.com\/2005\/06\/unpacking_the_a.html\">Unpacking Anxiety<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/hwebbjr.typepad.com\/openloops\/2005\/06\/your_central_ne.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Your biological Key to Production<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.studygs.net\/concen.htm#Worry%20or%20Think%20Time\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Concentrating while Studying<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.studygs.net\/lrnstudy.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Study Guides and Strategies<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/groups-beta.google.com\/group\/43Folders\/msg\/b01c0e106e93e5d1?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Parking on a Downhill Slope<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludism.org\/mentat\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mentat Wiki<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.franklincovey.com\/missionbuilder\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Build your own personal mission statement<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.43folders.com\/2005\/02\/systems_ciphers.html#more\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Systems, ciphers, and the dirty little secret of self-improvement<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.marktaw.com\/blog\/GettingBackToWork.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Getting back to work<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.marktaw.com\/blog\/GettingBackToWork.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.43folders.com\/2005\/01\/patching_your_p.html#more\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Patching your Personal Suck<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/sfwa.org\/writing\/strategies.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">50 Strategies for Making yourself Work<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I ended up waking up at 5am this morning.
