12:48 am
Decision, this or that, plans, standard,
8:00 am-8:30 am
The first habit to develop the remaining days is to decide what I need or want to get and then leave no choice to myself but get it. Make the alternative unthinkable. Also limit the amount of time needed to get the work done. The time limit ought to be challenging but doable.
I call this decisive habit. This habit inevitably entails planning, time management, implementation of plans and host of other desirable qualities

The second habit is slow but sure way of getting work done, and generally speaking, of acting and speaking slowly but surely. I call this sure but slow.
Third habit is follow your bliss.
The fourth habit is collection of notes and their subsequent publications, be it politics or otherwise. This is also how I open pandora box, check this or that,
an then I am lost.
The fifth habit is sleeping 8 hours a day, on constant basis, after fixing a timetable.
Organize house and possibly meditate to empty myself.
10:30-11:00 am
Write daily journals in two languages, and correct them. I have not done them before. This represents an act of irresponsibility. I see myself as a writer of journals and non, for the purpose of developing habits.
11:00-11:30 am
Meditate and report that you have emptied yourself. Tired in the middle of the meditation. Started to rest for 15 minutes.
11:30-12:00 am
Rested this period and updated the journals too. It occurred to me that I have emptied myself and thus attained one of my lofty ideals: free from pressures. Time to protect this emptiness and consolidate it.
12:00-12:30 pm
Close to 2 hours have been used to to meditate for the purpose of emptying myself or resting or organizing the house. Another one hour was used to write journals, that will be turned into books. The remaining hour was used to write daily political logs and things of that nature.
12:30-1:00 pm
Fill a rent application fully. The method of sitting both for work and for meditation is similar, so there is continuation that reinforces the aims of the meditation, staying empty to get work done that allows you to earn a living from suitable work and more.
1:00-1:30 pm
Fill the lease application
1:30-2:00 pm
Fill the lease application. Emptying yourself is precondition for getting great work done. Hence it is the primary habit that I want to develop.
2:00-2:30 pm
Finished lease application and now organizing and cleaning the house.
2:30-3:00 pm
Break
3:00-3:30 pm
Break
3:30-4:00
Plan for the rest of the day, too late, I agree.
4:00-4:30 pm
Plan for the rest of the day, too late, I agree. In the last couple of hours, I lost my heightened awareness, hence my not so excellent performance of actions.
4:30-:5:00 pm
Now, clean clothes.
5:00-5:30 pm
Clean clothes.
5:30-6:00 pm
Start searching for Zafu and Zabuton, around Minneapolis area
6:00-6:30 pm
Did find a place that sells, but too expensive, $120 and more
6:30-7:00 pm
Search online again, for used Zafu an Zabuton or on sale. Concerned now the quantities needed and room to be rented may not match. Also, needed to secure more money.
7:00-7:30 pm
Still pondering about meditation cushions and the room.
7:30-8:00 pm
This period, I have came up with a solution, check the place tomorrow, and then carry out measurements, and then submit the lease application, and then order the cushions.
8:00-8:30
This period I started to plan the week. Main goals of the week, open the center. Work out a schedule for meditation period times, lectures and discussion times, fees, procures, calendars. The same also for the coaching. I have also chosen a place to use as working space in the mean time.
8:30-9:00 pm I correcedt journals and prepared to go to prayers.
9:00-9:30 pm
Pray in the mosque and meditate there.
9:30-10:00 pm
Eat in the mosque with large number of people; all silent.
10:00-10:30 pm
Walk around at this time and explain to old friends my new adventure. Some not interested to hear, others curious, others question about its legitimacy, variations obtain.
10:30-11:00 pm
Talk to a friend at this time, unplanned, noisy, I was unable to leave, then I chose at once to run faster and said goodbye. That is how you end when you don't like what is going on: you leave abruptly, otherwise, the law of only this minute and then that minute will hold you there for hours. This is an instance of paradigmatic shift, some problems are solved by just abandoning them. Others are resolved by meditating to develop new disposition to do what you chose to do.
11:00-11:30 pm
This period I am correcting journals and also studying Somalia to write short a report. I hope to finish faster so that I can meditate before I sleep.
9:00-9:30 pm

Wrote about Somalia an edited journals. End of the day, but I was not left with enough time to meditated
