Obstacles: The Damage Report
An army that ignores its defeats is doomed. This is the objective record of where and how you met the enemy on the field.
Purpose: To Log Enemy Contact.
A soldier who ignores his wounds dies. An army that ignores its defeats is doomed. An Obstacle is a damage report from the front line. It is an objective record of where and how you met the enemy.
The enemy is your conditioning. The contact is the friction.
- "Procrastinated on cold emails."
- "Felt shame and lowered price."
- "Retreated from conflict with wife."
How to use it:
This is not a diary of your feelings. It is an intelligence log. You are a scout reporting enemy positions. You log the data cleanly, without judgment. The shame is not "bad"; it is the location of an enemy sniper. The procrastination is not "laziness"; it is the location of an enemy fortification. This log provides the raw data for interrogation.
