Progression
The last few weeks have been nothing short of enjoyable. At points they have been confusing on a personal level for multiple reasons, but I’m not one to let confusion damage my frame of mind. Most of my life on earth thus far has been confusing, and I don’t see that stopping anytime soon. Things of note that have taken place in the past couple weeks include:
- Jamesport trip with Mike
- Kings of Leon with Avery
- Movie / Random Internet Videos Night at Crystals
- Mike’s Going Away Party
- Random awkward evenings at Kaylee’s
I’ve decided that I am going to work on my health and that since I didn’t make a New Year’s resolution that I would just make it about 32 days late. I was making steady progress on this before I moved up to KC and then it all kind of fell apart. My diet on the non healthy lifestyle plan usually consists of random frozen foods, cheez its, lots of soda, fast food and random snacks. My new diet will consist more of a balance. I’m not exactly out of shape nor am I anywhere near overweight … actually just the opposite as I want to gain about 10 – 15 lbs. It’s more a way to take care of my body so when my metabolism decides it’s time to stop working at a satisfactory rate I won’t just keel over. I’ve long been a proprietor of the thought “Enjoy life now, worry about consequences later”, however I figure I can give my future self a break in the diet area. It is time to teach myself how to cook…
Then there is the working out, getting in shape category of my health. I found that living in KC makes it trickier to find an outdoorsy work out option. In St. Joe I was doing sledge hammer workouts mixed with Parkour training and some heavy bag training. I have done little in the way of physical training for the last month and a half. That is over starting now, I’m bringing my Muay Thai gear back with me to KC and am going to start a daily routine. If anyone wants to learn some Brazilian Jui Jitsu (any real life friends that read this anyway) let me know. I’m not going to pretend to be an expert on the art but I know a few things and have plenty of material and brains to pick for assistance. One of the main negatives for BJJ as kind of an anti social person, there isn’t much to train without someone to train with. That can be said for most martial arts but I think BJJ, Judo, Sambo and basically any submission / throwing skills are pretty impossible to practice without another person.
Lots of things are going to be taking place this month, both work related and on a personal level. Business wise I’ve always been sort of oblivious to things. Not really on the terms of not understanding, but more in the not caring. I’ve always accepted the role of playing for the team as opposed to leading the team. However this new venture probably won’t allow me to just sit around and do what I’m told, it looks as though I’ll have to be able to control my domain. Luckily I’m not the main controlling entity of the business and since I’m really just coming in to assist, I don’t have to explain much to anyone and can just kind of do my thing at the moment. Here’s to hoping this thing takes off and I am forced out of my own little work comfort zone.
