			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://ben-ward.co.uk/" title="Ben Ward" rel="friend met co-worker">Ben</a> has publicly <a href="http://ben-ward.co.uk/journal/getting-up/" title="‘Tired of this phase’ by Ben Ward">challenged himself</a> to not waste his pre-work mornings by sleeping through multiple alarms.</p>

<p>Whilst I don&#8217;t intend to mimic his goal (I already get up at 6:30<abbr title="ante meridiem">am</abbr> thankyouver’much), I have a habit of not doing things (posting here, writing for <a href="http://webtypography.net/">Web Typography</a>, exercising, and the list goes on) for similar reasons. I bemoan a lack of time, a fear of failure, a lack of knowledge… Anything, in fact, to excuse myself from doing things that might challenge me and require me to put effort into something.</p>

<p>So, to echo Ben’s sentiment:</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>This week, I’m taking the “don’t be so pathetic” method to not being shit at&nbsp;stuff.</p>
</blockquote>]]></content:encoded>
