The standard
Six daily elements.
All six are done every day, or the day does not count, no corners cut. To have capacity, you must have range. The six elements of Edge81 are designed to facilitate exactly that.
- 30 Minute Morning Practice: start your day with discipline and devotion.
- Journal, a mind and heart free of clutter is open and receptive.
- Depth, expanding your knowledge of self and the world around you.
- Move, stagnant energy kills progress and bogs you down.
- Play, having capacity is not meant to be a grind.
- Zero Alcohol, you need a clear vessel to hold your commitment.
Morning Practice
Breath, Meditation, Stillness, and Energetic Hygiene.
Journal
Clear your mind with 5 minutes of stream of consciousness writing by hand.
Depth
Read 10 pages or listen to 20 minutes of an audiobook that expands your knowledge of self or the world.
Move
For at least 30 minutes; lift, yoga, running, walking, Qi Gong, anything that gets your heart rate up and gets you breathing heavier.
Play
Play a sport, dance, play in a sandbox, play like you did when you were a child.
Zero Alcohol
Self explanatory, not a drop for 81 days, notice what changes in you and your life.
The boundary
Miss one element, on one day, and your 81 days restarts.
No partial credit. No cutting corners. No making it up the next day. It sounds unforgiving, what it actually is is accountability in its highest form; accountability to yourself. A standard you are allowed to bend is not a standard, it is a suggestion. The restart is not a punishment. It is the mechanism.
81 days · one chain · begin again if it breaks
Why 81 days
It's said that twenty-one days makes a habit, and a habit is unconscious by nature. Eighty-one days carries you into uncharted territory where you must consciously decide every day, to the point where it becomes who you are, not just something you do.
A habit creates a habit, eighty-one days creates a new identity.
Edge81 is the way in
