Ever fail to change your life? Tired of feeling like you’re falling behind? Most of us try to change our lives the same way every time. Pick one big thing that will “change everything.” Let everything else slide while we do it. Quit in a few weeks. Rinse and repeat. It’s like trying to finish a 1,000-piece puzzle by staring at one piece. The Ideal Week changes the perspective. Instead of one big goal stretched over a year, you look at your whole life through the 7 Fs: Fix, Fitness, Feelings, Faculties, Family, Finance, and Fun. You choose small ideals in each one, actions you could take this week. Not someday. This week, the one you can see. You take them. You look at what actually happened. Then you build next week from what you did, not what you hoped you would. When chaos shows up, ideals get smaller. You don’t. Every week is a new perspective on where you are and who you are. The bad weeks count too. It’s all data. If you’re just trying to get through the day, it’s for you. If you’re already doing well and still feel like you’re falling behind, it’s for you too. If everyone thinks you’ve got it all figured out and you know you don’t, it’s especially for you. The Ideal Week doesn’t care how much money you have, whether you have kids or a partner, or where you’re starting from. It doesn’t care who you’re pretending to be. It only cares about who you are when nobody’s watching. It’s a lifeboat when you need one. It’s a submarine when you’re ready to go deeper. Inside, you’ll learn the few simple rules that keep the system working, and why an ideal is not a goal. Goals come with deadlines, conditions, and a clock attached. Ideals don’t. Time is never part of an ideal, because the clock is usually the excuse that keeps you from starting. Every 7 days, you start fresh with real data instead of guesswork. Certainty doesn’t come from motivation or from predicting how the week will go. It comes from what you actually did. Part guide, part story, and a little memoir, The Ideal Week: A Guide to F Up Your Life* walks you through the whole system, one ideal at a time, all the way to building your very first week. Just action, data, and the next week. Anything can happen. Anything happens all the time. All it asks for is 7 days. It’s for who you could be. Starting this week. Ideally, you F up your life for good. It’s about Love & Chaos.
