2-4 things I've been putting off:
- Unsubscribe from a couple of credit card "services" that are really just wasting my money.
- Clear coat the new table and nightstand I bought last week
- Cleaning up my room
By 10 days from now, Sept. 22 I will call and cancel those services, pick up some clear coat stuff from Home Depot and tidy up this warzone!
Some places where I hit my edge:
- Going really hard at the gym, knowing that I tend to recover quite slowly, it's usually 4-5 days before I feel ready to lift again.
- Asking for dates/phone numbers from girls
- Learning how to invest & get out of the "rat race".
What I can do, and steps to improve these things:
1. Investigate some supplements like glutamine/creatine and find out if they can shorten my muscle recovery.
2. I currently don't meet a lot of new women, this would be a good step... I'm pretty comfortable with maintaining eye contact and once I'm in a conversation it usually goes ok. So my next step is to start introducing myself to more people.
3. I've gone to a few seminars and read a few books on real estate and stock investing, but I'm not really comfortable with the "creative" financing ideas that seem to be the key to really being successful with real estate investing. I'd really like to meet someone that's already experienced with this sort of thing so they could help me understand how to make these things work. My goal is to get into the real estate investing market by next summer and eventually have it replace my current job altogether. I'm not sure what my next step is here, I can't really make "meet someone who's experienced in this" as a time-sensitive goal.

Hey Eric that's a good list, good on you.
Your edge is more about where you're being blocked by fear - so not sure if your real estate example holds. Does it? You'd know.
Asking for dates, introducing yourself and burning out at the gym are DEFINITELY examples of your edge (or crossing it in the wrong way).
Good work on the weekly tasks too, they're a good size and manageable. You'd feel wonderful after you start!
Keep it up man!
