However, my suggestion is that you focus on career for 2009.

That's my intention!

You are already very advanced in health. (...)
So you can now rest a bit in this area, and just do the minimum effort to stick with this habit that you now have. With minimum effort you're already much more healthy than 99% of the population.

The point is, I think I haven't reached the point where my health habits run on auto-pilot. Since I started trying to go low-fat raw, I've been struggling horribly. I had many slip ups, ate cooked foods, failed, went back to raw, failed again, etc. If I want to go low-fat raw, this will take a huge amount of effort and I'm far from being done! So, no minimum effort in sight... If I go back to high-fat raw, it'll be much easier, but I'd still need to focus on it for a few weeks to re-build the habit. After all those slip ups and struggles, it totally doesn't feel like the habit "sits". You know?

I cannot go back to cooked foods. Compared to how I feel on raw, I'm an apathetic wreck on cooked foods. I can't settle for less than raw now. But it'll require some work.

These are all career related. If you build a website, write an ebook and become self employed, all the things as learning php, internet marketing, seo, developping the blog, and even aligning with Power and Abundance are going to be part of your work.

That's true. That's why I listed them!

Okay, I can see now that I'm confusing end goals and steps necessary to reach the end goals. The real goal is to go self-employed and build my business. All other things, the writing and webdesign and learning seo etc, are consequences.

I agree.

Thanks

My suggestion os to forget about everything else. Health, belly dancing, languages, travelling, street fighting classes, keep for later.

You want me to die!

Anway, it's been my experience that if I want to work with a clear mind, I have to do a little bit of journaling, meditation and exercice in the morning to be more efficient.

Yes, same here. Journaling every day irritates the hell out of me. But when I don't do it, I feel that I progressively lose connection (to my soul?). Energy work helps a lot to be efficient, too. As I said, I feel much better when I do it every day. So you see: all my goals are necessary to reach my end goal of building my business!

I even started to keep my desk and my house more tidy to have a clearer mind before working. (cause having tidy room helps me having a clear mind )

Cool I agree.

So you're not going to forget completely about entairtainment, exercice, healthy food, because you're going to need that anyway, but it's going to be a consequence of your focus on career without you even needing to think too much about it.

Yes, I agree that all this is a consequence of my focus on career, that's how I see it.

Nevertheless I think I'll have to think about it. I hate routine, so building habits like doing something every day requires A LOT of energy for me. It's not something I can do along the way.
