Sure, movie night is fun and relaxing, but there are seven days in every week. It's time to spend one of them doing something that doesn't involve a remote control and popcorn. Find a sports team, learn to play an instrument, or embrace the great outdoors. Commit to get up, get out, and get going!
"We're getting even stronger. Today was much better. I'm getting the hang of finding the true action lines in a figure. I started doing my 125 torso study, but the apple pencil battery ran out. I'm excited again. I can do this. "
"I worked a whole hour on holding my pencil with a overhand grip as I practice circles and ellipses. I first tried drawing them without the practice worksheets, then I used the practiced worksheets, then I tried again without the practice worksheets. Also I worked on the “run the track” exercise and that explains the page with the wonky shapes. I couldn’t take a pictures of every page I did but I’m sure I drew 100s of circles, ellipses and shapes. It was boring at first but then I got obsessed with trying to get the perfect circle. I did end up drawing a handful of perfect ones. Most of the ones I drew unfortunately had tails or didn’t connect but as I practiced that reduced. I still have lots more practice to do and will probably from here on out use the circle and ellipse drawings as warm ups for future days. So to sum it up today I got a little better at sharpening my pencil with a X-Acto knife, holding my pencil with a overhand grip, using my shoulder and arms to make big swoops and consistent lines rather then rigid lines with my wrist, improving my circles and ellipses, and tracing the same shape to improve my accuracy. "
"I’ve learned to sharpen my pencil with an X-Acto knife. This is so I can have a more variety of line weights in my art and also it encourages me to hold the pencil with a overhand grip rather then the writing grip I’m use to. "
"Fue una GRAN semana, con nuestra primer final de la liga de TAU, Mucha emocion, mucha putiza pero todo un excito, trofeo medallas y premios, el combo de vitrina, y la clase gratis de surf, que si bien no hicimos tanto (o nada) de profit, fue todo un extito.

"I wanted to use social media last night so I turned off my phone and put it in the bedroom. Woke up around 4 something this morning and was so tempted that I found a book to read on this app called Libby. And that was good till I fell back asleep. So I did it! I am concoring social media!"
"So far going good. I have used my phone tonight. But not for social media. It was to create a new Samsung account which ended up stressful. And messaging my boyfriend late because the Fireworks scare him. I am so tempted to go on tick took. And just see if anybody is doing live atreams or something. I mean. This is when I would usually give up. But I keep telling myself NO! You got this! You can do this! You can give up all social media.❤😁"
"Perspective seems to be pretty difficult, but it needs to be done. Today, I practiced some more with drawing boxes with freehand perspective and such."
"Today Is the 4th of July. And I know I am holding my self accountable in this app on my honor. But I really feel like I have know body to tell about this. I tell my Boyfriend. And he may just get mad and say. "This isn't another app blocker is it? And when I tell him about it and only being 30 days. Be a little more reluctant hopefully. But not what to help me buy being my coach I feel like. And If I tell anybody else to help me I would feel silly and know they are to busy probably to care about helping me. So I know my willpower can be week in a lot of areas. And I have done this a LOT of times. Trying to quit my phone. And then just Social media. Or even both at the same time. But I can do it this time. I have done it with Facebook before. Completely gave it up. And was only using YouTube obsessively. But that can still be considered social media If you really think about it. And I do wanna try to use my phone less. Today so far. I have not been using my phone that much because I have been doing some stuff. The energy drinks could be helping. Plus a couple of things I needed to do anyway. And I already know some of the dangers about social media and being on your phone to long. And Tech neck. And I saw this thing in the news about growing a horn out your back or neck. And I don't want to be 90 still sitting in my house. Hopefully with my Boyfriend by then. Still staring at a phone screen. Or whatever latest tecnolagy in your pocket by then. And wasting my life away. I want to better myself. Even when I had a Job. I still found time to stare at my phone for hours. To kill boredom or anything. And once I concer this. It will hopefully motivate me to do other things. And I can make more goals within this app. Like lose more weight buy not eating after a sertain time. And not spend so much money on things I don't need. Etc.. Eyc.. I want to be a better person. But one goal at a time. And I also herd for a lot of people watching YouTube videos and from my grandmother as well. If you tell your goals out loud to people. It can make you not accomplish them. Or not want to. Or aomething Like that. So that's a good reason not to say anything. And I love that within this app. I have a portable journal in the palm of my hands. So I can write down my thoughts. So maybe I won't be tempted to cheat. Because I have thought about it. Just opening Tick Took. And then lying in this app. But I know later. I would feel bad about myself. So I said. I can do this!! And typing out what I am feeling is helping. Tonight at 8 we are watching the fireworks on TV. So I will not be using mg phone."

"Last night. After I made shore all my Youtube accounts were deleted and I did some things on my phone. I turned It off for the rest of the night and just watched T.V Usually I would have my head berried down in my phone watching YouTube or aomething Instead. I woke up this mid morning feeling a tad down. I don't know if its the dream I had. Or the no social media. And that FOMO kicking in. But I can do this!!! So maybe this will help me change. See my self and get to know myself and make a change for the better."
"I failed but I can say that my life is getting more organized year! Thanks to my planner. But I still have a hard time in doing something repetitive (only successful at the first few attempts). Establishing good habit is definitely not easy. "

"Other duties emerged today that required my attention. I was not able to commit enough time to this task to warrant a completed session. My schedule has been reviewed to allow for these other duties -- I aim to better adapt with disruptions in my schedule moving forward."
"This is a 15min relaxing time that I always wanted to do but kind of keep forgetting. I set it to do straight after waking up every day.
My first 7 days will be daydreaming about sailing. Boat, wind, sails :) Love the idea of that. I would have a great time daydreaming about it"
"In the next chapter, it gives some suggestions on how to refine and fix the flaws in the current policy. People who entered without document should be given a chance to earn legal status and their children need education. And wait over 5 years to reunite with family is long."
