Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do. - Pele
I hope you all are having a great day so far! I have recently scrolled through my comments as usual but I also checked my private messages on the Steemit Chat. I read the question - what am I doing at the moment - a lot. That´s the reason why I thought to tell you a little bit about my daily schedule, whats going on throughout the day and what do I do to keep focusing and staying motivated...
I am pretty sure that you already know my friend because she will be visible in my videos or diaries just like today. Just in case you didn´t recognize her of all my videos or recent posts, I am going to show you some footage and you can check out her blog if you want to. Anyway, my life is a little bit different than a life of a "normal" young woman. When I met people from high school, they often asked me what happened to my life because everything they do is studying, meeting friends or spending time on social media and this is exactly the opposite of my life right now. It sometimes takes days or even months for them to understand that everything is possible and you don´t need to live the life which the system shows you to live! I don´t spend any time with people from my past. This is also the reason why everyone is asking me what´s going on because they haven´t heard of me since a few years... But that is another topic which we can discuss on a different post. I took the camera with me the other day and now it´s time to start the day...
I usually use my phone as an alarm and it usually rings early in the morning. I don´t sleep as long as I could because this would stop me from being productive. After that I would pack all my stuff which I need for the day, make myself gym ready and take a snack with me for the ride to the fitness studio where I meet up with my lovely friend . We don´t have a morning routine or anything like that, we just do 1hour heavy weights mixed with cardio until the time is over and we can head over to the changing room and take a nice cold shower. Sometimes we have some shoots for different projects but this is not fixed in the daily schedule but since this post is all about my activities, I will mention it of course. Here are just some random pictures of us while shooting...
Now we usually head over to the office which has different locations. We never work at the same place because the vibe is always different. We mostly visit my favorite district in Hamburg which is the Hafencity in Hamburg but sometimes we just grab a coffee or a tea and take a seat in a cozy café nearby. Now it´s time to check some mails, answer Steemit comments, take a look at the coin market cap and organize the stuff we want to get done for the day.
It is really important for me to organize my things because I am only able to give my full potential when I know that all my other stuff is going the right way.
Deadlines aren't bad. They help you organize your time. They help you set priorities. They make you get going when you might not feel like it. - Harvey Mackay
I would usually take a short break and switch the location to eat lunch but there are some very productive days where I just stay at the office or café and start doing next tasks in order to get the most of the day. I would now start to learn programming with my daily tutorials. I really need to be focused and put my earphones on. Mrs.Steemit and I have surely some projects together but of course not everything. But that´s okay because everyone of us is in her one zone and we set up a time to finish each tasks until we meet up again for lunch, dinner or projects we do together.
Now it´s time for lunch, a short break to recap and answering mails or people we work with. This time I didn´t record the lunch but we had a nice sit down in a restaurant located at the water in the middle of the shopping district.
It felt like the day just started and my body and mind are still full of energy. Switching up the locations can cost a lot of time. Finding a parking spot, traffic... There are many obstacles that will take time. So we we sometimes stick to the place where we currently are and put out out laptops. Now it´s time for real work. We have both different businesses and managing all that takes hard work, determination, sweat but also love for what we do!
The entrepreneur always searches for change, responds to it, and exploits it as an opportunity. - Peter Drucker
To almost finish the day off, I´d like to learn a new language or read a book for only an hour because then it´s time for a Steemit post! This would be the last task for the day.
I really enjoy writing since I joined Steemit and I haven´t thought of meeting so many great souls on this platform. I feel very blessed to have the opportunity to reach almost 3000 people everyday. I am truly thankful that my community is so active in the comment section. I love to read you guys opinions and exchanging ideas!

This is what a normal day in my life looks like. Of course everyday is different and everyday brings different tasks. I also take time for myself to meditate or dance but this is mostly what I do throughout the day.
What do I do to stay motivated?
Well, I have learned so much about the mindset during the last years. My mentor truly changed my life and I take nothing for granted. I remind myself how healthy I am, how blessed I am with a lovely family and a successful team around me, how important it is to give the best in order to have the future I wish for and I want to become the best mother possible in every kind of way when it´s time for that.
No matter how good you are at planning, the pressure never goes away. So I don't fight it. I feed off it. I turn pressure into motivation to do my best. - Ben Carson
Thanks for joining me today.
Stay focused
Love, Soldier
