Have you ever looked up at the clock, or your watch, or your phone, and wondered, "Where the heck did the day go?" Well, that's what happens when you don't have a good grasp of how you would like your day to go in a perfect world. Fortunately, there's a technique that can help you with this. By comparing your ideal day to what your typical day looks like, you can see gaps that you can help address to make your typical day closer to what your ideal day could be. All you have to do is describe your experiences in both days to identify gaps that you need to address. Post the description of your ideal day on your wall and then revisit it, revise it as needed. It gives you a clearer picture and enables you to act intentionally in the interest of creating your model day. And when you can create your ideal day, you are far less likely to get stressed.
