The Robot

I have this ability to pick up a messy house in record time, I call it going robotic. I just thought I'd dissect it right now because it works really good and needs to be applied to other areas.

1. It's only two steps: Get things into my hands as fast as possible. Get things out of my hands as fast as possible.
2. It has a conscious begin time. I stop and think in my mind. I make a decision that I am the robot and I am going robotic.
3. I know it won't be that long. I know its going to be a half hour to an hour.
4. I know what the end looks like.
5. I set boundaries on interruption. I ask Jamie to handle everything the kids need so I can get it done. I tell the kids I'm going robotic so I can't be stopped or help them for a little while. If I knew in my mind I was going to have to stop in the middle to do something else I'd lose motivation.
6. I usually get sex as a reward but not always.
7. When I'm done I take a break and feel the cleanness and how amazing I transformed it so fast.

So what I'm taking from this:

1. Work in hour bursts
2. Know exactly the steps. Make the process of what I'm doing as simple and clear as possible.
3. Consciously start
4. Know exactly what it will look like in an hour
5. Eliminate all possibility of interruption
6. Have a reward in mind. Probably my dreamline
7. Know that at the end I'll be glorying in the victory
