Day 20: No listening
I feel like I’m ending the cycle like it started. Feeling good. Also feeling lighter today. I felt like it’s been a little bit of a healing or clearing cycle, besides the start of it.
The baker’s cyst was slightly hurting after my long day of work on saturday. That’s when it usually bugs me. Again I forgot what it was and thought it was maybe hamstring tendon pain. So no jumping or explosive stuff yet.
Still thinking of a GLM custom. lol. Maybe I’ll make it just without the Primal core.
Kinda funny. Saw my old friend joking with people online. And I got ghosted almost a year ago. Kinda like a breakup when you see the ex with her new man. lol.
I checked my crypto account. I’ve got a decent to me, little chunk adding up. I might have to start focusing on putting any amount in there each month again this year. It’s at least doubled, it’s probably more than that, from what I put in. I don’t think I put any in last year. I wish I had, lol. I can start this year, just small amounts for now.
I just did a quick 5 mins on the exercise bike. I’m improving there. I was able to get a higher heart rate and for the first little bit my performance was increased. I plan on building up to intervals. I am to the point where I like a little bit of vigorous exercise. Looking forward to it a bit. Now for mobility, and the isometric holds. Started doing some planks as well. I noticed the other day that yea, just doing the iso holds has me feeling stronger even just in daily life. My favorite part is going to work and not feeling tired after.
Also looking in the mirror the last few days, I see a good looking guy again. Where previously I was focused on how grey my hair is getting. I’m tightening up again after the holiday break finally. Definitely want to regain that definition, but slowly and surely is the name of the game. It’s like 4 months until tank top weather, so all I gotta do is stay consistent and slowly increase reps or intensity.
It wasn’t the most fun, adventurous, outwardly productive and successful cycle. It was more like inner overhaul. I think come summer time, I’ll be like a new person for sure. Or at least bring back my favorite version of me.
Finally at least put down things I want to paper. I’ve got a list of 7 so far. I haven’t refined them into like goal statements or whatever yet. That’s the plan. To try out the write down what you want. Read it 3x a day sort of thing.
I did find some inspiration today. I saw this video of this chick who lost her job. She was saying she just talks to anybody. She likes to chit chat. Not looking for anything. But she had an affirmation. And so she talked to somebody, they like her, thought she had people/sales skills. Hired her and flew her to some trade show to sell on commission. She made like 7K or something. And it was just for like the week or weekend or something. Everything, travel paid for. Really makes me want to go forward with my glm custom, so I can try out True Sell finally, and some of those other modules I’ve wanted.
I was driving today and saw this alright looking chick. I was at a stop light and we didnt break gaze at each other. Felt comfortable. That was interesting.
