Check, Check, 1, 2, CHECK!

30 days.

One month.

That’s a long time. I woke up today after 2 hours of sleep, took a shower and began to think about this project. This has the potential to be a very useful habit in my life, or it could be one of the worst ideas I’ve had thusfar.

I found myself (on day one) stalling for time and taking forever in the shower so I don’t have to be here long. I don’t know if it’s because I’m afraid of failure or because I’m just downright lazy.

I don’t know if this time 4-5am will continue to be a more productive time, or if it will gradually slip to normal thinking time as well. I have no agenda curently for this time, just that I use it properly. Anything creative durning this time is permitted as long as I leave an entry about it.

I have been encouraged to monitor what comes out of this blog so I can keep track of any great ideas for future blogging. I will do this for stuff including, new business ventures, new service ideas, or new fresh ideas in general. The idea here is that by the end of these 30 days I will have something to show for my time instead of many weak ideas, I’ll have a few ideas that may be of some use.

Thoughts on this whole blogging on no sleep thing..

I don’t know how well I will function with my sleep schedule stabbed right in the middle.

I don’t know if I will get anything productive out of this time.

I don’t know why I’m doing this other than to try something for 30 days.

Happy Genius day (and april fools day)
