Easter Break

I plan to post everyday over the next 2 & 1/2 weeks. I am in a really good mood today as I have 17 days off work. I have several things going on, work is hard. But that’s my job I can’t complain. It pays the bills.

I want to focus on the fitness side and also get everything sorted financially too.

We move house next Tuesday, and probably won’t have full internet access until Friday. I will however post from my phone so I can keep this blog updated.

Some of the things I am working on:

    2 weeks of Crossfit.
    Run & Ride Sequencial days
    Clean Zone Diet
    No hardstuff
    Organise “special” joint project
    Organise thoughts for personal project

After all that I need to catch up on school work and also relax, decorate the new hobbit hole.

Current amendments:
No hardstuff
Regular exercise
no hard feelings

Current reading list:
The Resilience Factor: 7 Keys to Finding Your Inner Strength and Overcoming Life’s Hurdles
The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying: A Spiritual Classic
Hardcore Zen: Punk Rock Monster Movies & the Truth About Reality

About The Resilience Factor

“The ability to recover quickly from illness, change, or misfortune; buoyancy.”

This book is interesting, it gives you several self diagnosis tyepe quizzes to complete, of which I completely failed and seem to be a snivelling shell of a man, who can’t say boo to a goose or take any sort of pressure. Not my own opinion of course, but disturbing all the same. Actually, it might have been my mental arithmetic skills, when I added up all the scores but ho hum!

The book then goes on to describe how to try and deal with situations that test your resilience, one thing that I am trying to do is work on my ABC’s.

A – dversity
B – eliefs
C – onsquences

I take from this that all adverse situations are a test of my beliefs in my self and the consquences of giving in to anger, is to be further suffering and problems later. A lot like Karma.

Recent purchases
Aside from the hobbithole. I have also updated all of my bike kit. I have a bought a lock to lock up my bike at work, and also patches and tools. I also need a new back tyre and chain cleaner then I am set for bike kit.

Saving ideas
Equal parts debt clearance and savings for projects.
Leaving cash & cards at home to stop spending.
Shopping for food online and limited budget at budget shops (Lidl & Aldi).

Overall, as usual big things are afoot, but if I am resilient and strong things will happen and keep happening. That’s all I can expect from this crazy world!
