There are goals that I want to reach this first half of the year. First, I need to work my ass off to achieve a financial goal I have been wanting. To do that, I must maintain a healthy body, I must sleep well, I must eat well.
So far, I have been doing these things. I am also trying to fight depression and fatigue through exercise. I eat a lot of vegetables and try to keep a healthy appetite. I haven't smoked in months. I don't even have the desire to touch it. Smoke now disgusts me, I wear a face mask all the time.
Every other day, I run almost 3 miles. The farthest I have run is so short still, it takes me one hour to finish the track. I wear a watch to track time and some music. I don't bring any money at all. For this tempts me to take the jeep and ride the rest of the way home. So, I leave myself with no choice but to run. Run and Run.
I have been jogging for two weeks now. Surpassing the other time and track each day I try to run again. For example, I ran 30 minutes today non stop, so tomorrow I will try 40. This is a mind set Ive been keeping, not to lose weight, but to keep a healthy mind and disposition.
I notice that, my form is also changing. My breathing is becoming rhythmic while running, instead of the short breaths I have usually. It is also easy for me to sleep and wake up while at work and while at home. I can manage my appetite well, I tend to grab water instead of sugary stuff.
I told myself, If I continually subject my body to consistent hard work, it will eventually get used to it, and receive the pounding it gets from the mind, thus, following. I also tried that at work, work is hard, its mentally hard. But while running, I realized that if I want to learn more and more about work, I need to subject it to an environment which welcomes challenge and pressure, and hard work. And the mind will follow.
I am having a good week. I have done all I could to keep things in check. I tried my best to surpass my weaker self.
But the best weeks are yet to come.
