Here's what I did and it's getting easier by the day, the process seems to be multiplying its own effectiveness at every new "level" I reach.
I pretty much made a list of everything I wanted to do, everything. I knew what it was because of years researching, my only problem was doing it.
So after I made the list of everything I made a board (with paper since I already had paper) and put it on the wall. The board has 7 days in it and every activity I wish to master. I then judge at the end of each day my actions.
>Red if I didn't do it
>yellow if I kinda did it but was in and out of it
>green if I did it til the end and focused while doing it
>blue if I did it more then it was necessary.
Notice I'm not judging the results. I am only judging my will power here.
At the beginning it was hard just to judge each day, for the first week all I got was reds but I was happy I was even using the tool I created. During the second week even though I got only two yellows out of my 20 activities in the first day, I just said to myself "tomorrow I'll get four". Well tomorrow came and I did get four, but four greens. So it started increasing each day. I created a reasonable way to judge my own actions and have it there in my face, a way that was objective and didn't involve the way I felt about it.
The second thing I did was the art of retrospection. I learned about it while listening to Manly P Hall and he said he learned about it from studying Pythagoras. Basically what you do is, at the end of the day before sleeping you play your day backwards in your mind. Instead of going from cause to effect you go from effect to cause. You start by how you're feeling right now and gradually move backwards in time till the beginning of the day. It seems silly but this is incredibly effective.
