Today was a completely normal day. I got up in the morning and did stretching and meditation right away. I worked all day on my book, went to my book club in the evening, ate healthy, didn’t drink or smoke or watch TV, and I completed my three thing to-do list.

It got me thinking, what happens when doing a great job becomes just another day.

At first I was all proud of myself for getting up in the morning and stretching right away, or for spending all day in front of my computer, but what happens when I don’t get a rush from that anymore?

My hope is that I will have developed good habits. That makes sense.

I have replace my old bad habits with good ones. That is obviously a good thing. But, I can’t the idea of my life going by in a series of just another day.

I can see why people make thankfulness journals. My idea was a journal of one new thing I learned or did every day.

I think this may be necessary for people who have naturally low dopamine, or for people who have low dopamine from years of dopamine stimulant abuse. The problem is that I don’t want any more thinking activities on my plate right now.

I think for the time being my meditation combined with the fulfillment of writing should keep me going. It is not like I had a bad day or anything. I am just pre-worrying about getting bored with being too awesome in the future (you know something in your life is working when you have that problem!)

Tomorrow I have a weird day planned. I am planning to go to the gym to practice swimming, and then return to the gym to play squash later.

Hopefully, my plan from yesterday of being able to free wheel with my time and still be productive still works out. I really don’t want to break my streak of productivity!
