And you know what that means:

We're halfway through the work week.

I know, some of us work 7 days a week. Or we don't work the typical "9 to 5 Monday through Friday" grind.

I personally hate grinding.

Such hard work loses to smart work all the time. And you need leisure time for your subconscious to do it's thing.

So I spend a lot more time thinking than doing and a lot more time not thinking than thinking.

(HEY! NO JOKES! hehe)

Not thinking (subconscious, or rather passive thought) > thinking > doing

Doing is just carrying out a task. The real work comes with the first two things.

What's all this mean? How does this fit in with Hump Day?

You can set up your workflow thusly:

Monday: Subconsciously "work" on your project
Tuesday: Actively think (i.e., plan) out your project
Wednesday: Transition from "thinking" to doing
Thursday: Do the work
Friday: Finish up and hit "publish" (i.e., "make public")

Wow, I'm using a lot of "quotes" and italics.

Next, I'll be using colors and different fonts! Bill has gone mad!

Moving on:

I found some good books today. Some notables:

• 5-Minute Marketing for Authors: Get More Sales for Your Books in Just 5 Minutes a Day.
• MARK CUBAN: The Life & Success Stories Of A Shark Billionaire. He's a jerk but he is wealthy. Take that for what it's worth.
• Summary: The Intelligent Investor. This is THE wealth-building through value investing BIBLE.
• RV Living: A Beginner’s Guide To Turning Your Motorhome Dream Into Reality. Intriguing. I could do this as a single person, maybe even married. I'd go insane with a family.
• OneNote: OneNote User Guide. I used to love Evernote, until I started using OneNote. Now it's ON all the time!
• NLP: Neuro Linguistic Programming: Re-program your control over emotions and behavior, Mind Control - 3rd Edition (Hypnosis, Meditation, Zen, Self-Hypnosis, Mind Control, CBT). NLP always strikes me as mumbo jumbo BS but it's always good to keep up with what's going on in marketing. A LOT of people proclaim to use it. So there's that.

All of today's books:

• Marketing
• Business & Money
• Health & Fitness
• Computers & Tech
• Self-Help

Make it a great day!

PS--Check this out. It looks pretty cool. I'm probably picking it up today. It's a way to personalize your web site. Read about it here.
