Day 63 - It will come, Never Quit.

Day 63 - 10.19.2025

⚔️ Main Themes of Pursuit (consistency in Journal for me)

Do More by Doing Less (Simplify and Hire People)
Become a Lion (Schedule, Firmness, Fortitude)
Stop Adding and take the Risk of Multiplying

💪🏼 Pillar 1 - Fitness and Fuel

Workout - 830AM (45 min) hike, 630PM (45 min) 52 min plate carrier walk, 860 move cal today

Drink - 3.5 liters

Eat - Clean. Protein - approx. 100g (175g or more objective)

Sleep - 8 hr last night

📖 Pillar 2 - Mindset and Discipline

Daily Reflection - A team is better than an individual. Surround yourself with who you want to be.

12 min/wk cold plunge - Really Cold Plunge today in Jason’s back yard.

Reading - “The Book on Mental Toughness”, by Andy Frisella. Ive read about all the phases you go through in your first 75 days of 75 Hard. Being on Day 63, I agree with much of whats written, but I also felt like it was not as dauntingly hard as Andy describes. It makes me think that I can do more, which I believe is true. So rather than going to Phase 2, im going to start over on day 76 on day 1 and do it again.

Outside Exercise - Yes.

Creativity and Thinking - Simplify to Multiply. Keep working here.

💰 Pillar 3 - Business and Income

Architecture Firm - NA today.

AE - NA today.

CG - NA today.

Multi-Family Real Estate - NA today.

Personal - NA today.

😃 Pillar 4 - Relationships and Leadership

Family - Spent the last 2 days with Yvonne in a wonderful place ive never been. We also met some amazing, like-minded people that are going for it too. Today, when we got back home, Autumn went with me on a plate carrier walk and she had soo much to tell me. Lots of hi lights of the day, and I felt like I just zoned in on family like never before today.

Faith - Daily reading today, Psalms.

Growth Minded People - Going to Jason’s Build the Man Retreat was awesome! It was a great group of growth minded, faith filled, humble people who want to do more than they can think of in this life, not for them selves alone but for others too. This is such a great group of people, and Yvonne and I were blessed to meet and spend a little time with each of them this weekend.

Personal Influence - Autumn and her grades. We just got her first report card today. She’s doing great overall but has a 87 and 86 in (2) of her Honors classes. Fortunately this is more a mentoring moment than anything because she’s not happy herself. We talked about 1% better every day, not waiting until the spring to bring the grades to where she wants them, etc. I found it very interesting that, at 11, Im able to mentor her rather than need to hold her accountable, etc.

🏡 Pillar 5 - Lifestyle and Standards

Home - Traveling most of the day, so none today.

Wardrobe - Not today.

Micro Habits / Consistencies - Everything has a place, bed made every morning, even the hotel bed.

🌎 Pillar 6 - Intentional Impact

I don't know yet, but I am certain I had as much of an impact on others this weekend as they did on me. Time will manifest that.

🔥 Wins - We added to our Growth Minded circle this weekend. Yvonne and I had a critical conversation in our first Marriage Meeting. I have some new energy.

💯 Struggles - im already feeling sore from Saturdays back workout with Jason and all the other beasts there at the gym.
