# Finally in Red!

*Hello! I greet you as warmly as possible! "Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts." – Winston Churchill It happened. My list is red.…*

**Hello! I greet you as warmly as possible!**

**"Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts."**  – Winston Churchill

**It happened.** My list is red. Tasks were not completed, exercises were left undone...

What a relief that it was a **reflection day** and not just another Monday – or worse, a Saturday 😉

I admit it – I didn't complete my tasks. But these tasks were deliberately set on a reflection day – meaning they were more like an old, abandoned train station bulletin board than a strict to-do list. Ufffff... I have an excuse. I would feel bad if I didn’t. I would feel like a caveman returning home without even a piece of mammoth, like a Wall Street wolf without even a small dose of heroin, like a diver without fins, like an actor without an audience, like... **Ok, enough.** That's exactly how I would feel.

But now, as always, I draw my lesson from it, because what would D.I. be without one?

**“Let the reflection day be a day without tasks! Keep just 1% progress in anything!”**

- I don’t have a huge guilty conscience – but I feel something is unfinished.
- My subconscious is starting to see GMF as the norm.
- It's beginning to work – and it's enjoyable!
- I'll keep going – because it feels great!
- Every day brings new insights – even a reflection day.

**Why?** Because even though I don’t have a huge guilty conscience (like a diabetic eating their tenth donut, like... oh, sorry), I still have the feeling that something was neglected, something left incomplete.

This feeling has built up in my mind ever since I introduced the **GMF method** into my life. Incredible! This means that my subconscious is beginning to crave what has been normal for the past few days. It’s starting to function and, perhaps... bring pleasure.

**That’s how it should be! Keep it up, Kacper!**

Besides, yesterday was simply beautiful, full of reflection and also some very pleasant surprises and experiences.

- I achieved an important milestone in the financial sector.
- I won the "battle" for a warehouse and office for my online store.
- There were many interested parties – but I was chosen!

One of them was that I achieved one of my milestones in the field of **Finance** – I won the "battle" for a warehouse and office for my online store! There were many interested parties, but I was chosen. After a month of waiting for the verdict, I finally received the call – the owner confirmed his willingness to sign the lease. It’s not easy in Switzerland if a property is attractive and reasonably priced. But this one is perfect! Waiting patiently paid off.

**Calmness, a smile, good preparation, professionalism, humility, and patience** – these were the building blocks of my success in this "segment" of my journey. **The store M.....D...ch will have its headquarters from August 1, 2025, and its website will be ready on April 1 – on the day of jokes and smiles – April Fool’s Day! 😊**

It’s done – we are setting sail with our small boat, a simple trunk of a tree. First on a stream, but every river flows into the ocean. The boat is not "top", but my backpack is full of equipment – **the GMF method and D.I. are with me**.

**And with this set, you don’t sink. Never!**

**Welcome aboard!**

**Wish me luck for today and remember today's motto:**

**The world is yours! (I always say it’s mine – highly recommended 😊)**
