Plans

Goals are nothing without a plan for achieving them. Here is where I keep my various plans for success.

These will change over time, but are great for keeping me focused on the task at hand. Each day, I know what I need to accomplish. Most likely, changes will occur as I discover weaknesses. But I also anticipate changes when winter approaches.

As I was developing these plans, I started to wonder how I’d go about quantifying whether or not the plan is working for me. A plan that isn’t working can be a sign that I’m just not committed, or that the plan itself is flawed. For instance it could be too much to handle or incomplete. To track how I execute my plans, I created an activity log and a diet log that shows how I did every day in regards to my fitness, golf, and diet plans.

A note about the logs:  My point isn’t to tell you what you should do, only to chronicle what I’m doing so that you can learn from how I plan, no so much what the actual plan is.  Also, I don’t intend for these logs to be constantly updated every day until I leave this earth.  My purpose is to log my activity/diet at times when I feel that I need to check on myself, so I can re-evaluate my plans.  It won’t be uncommon to see long stretches with no updates or stretches of updates that only last a week or two.  It’s all about gaining a little knowledge to use for refinement.

    Yeah, I need to be more active. I’m a lurker, by nature. ;)

  • It's A Numbers Game
  • Golf is a numbers game. To excel, it requires both art and science. The art can be there from birth and might even be developed some over the years. But the science is there for everyone to use to their advantage. This is one of the reasons that I’m a serious stats guy. I’ve been a little overwhelmed with the journey that I’ve just embarked on, so I’ve been a little lax in keeping my [...]
