The Honest Inventory

No bullshit. Just answers.

This is the part where you stop telling yourself the story and look at the actual data. Answer honestly. A copy gets sent to your email and to me. There are no wrong answers... just honesty or bullshit, and you already know which one you're writing.

Your answers are private. Only you and I see them.
Am I in better or worse shape than a year ago? How many days did I move on purpose this week? How many meals were planned vs. improvised? Does my energy match the life I'm trying to live?
Who or what controls the first 30 minutes of my day? How often do I negotiate with the alarm? When did I last start the day on my terms?
What has my wife mentioned that I still haven't handled? How many things am I walking past daily? Is my effort going to what needs it or what I enjoy?
What does my screen time say? How much of what I consume was intentionally chosen? Am I using my phone or is it using me?
Does my family get my attention or my proximity? When did I last initiate connection without being asked? If my wife wrote an honest review of this week... what would it say?
What standards do I claim that I'm not running? Where am I negotiating into exceptions? What would it look like if I actually lived at the level I say I want to?

This is the answer that tells both of us where you start.
