Now - Feb 2020
This is my now page - it's what I'd tell my friends if they asked me, "What are you up to right now?"
If you have your own site, you should have one too!
Things I’m Focusing On #
Pressing the reboot button #
I woke up recently and realized that I’d slumped into a funk again, which seems to be a recurring theme for me sadly. I’m pressing the reboot button on myself.
Work is going well - I’m excited about the projects, friendships I’ve made, and personal growth. I’m keen on continuing to challenge myself there.
That’s about the only thing that’s going well though. I find myself getting in early (7:30-8:00 am) and leaving a bit later (4:30-5:00 pm), which is pretty good for my work but leaves me feeling drained when I get home. My personal side projects are suffering from neglect. I’ve lost at least half of the hard work I put in in 2018, tipping the scales at ~240 pounds again when I’d weighed in at 200 pounds on Dec 31, 2018. I haven’t worked out in a month, for various excuses.
Pressing the reboot button is all I can do - trying to find the “Mamba Mentality” I had in 2018 when I put my life back on track. The theme for this upcoming phase of my life is doing the little things towards my goals - waking up early, doing laundry, eating with purpose [or fasting!], rebuilding erg and lifting habits, and dedicating some time every day towards my goals.
Ideally speaking, I’d like to spend one hour each day towards each of three areas:
- physical [erging, lifting],
- personal learning [DynastyProcess/DLF apps, research, learning, Twitch streaming?],
- and social [spending time with friends].
I have no illusions that I’ll fall off this train at some point, but I need to take steps and do the little things towards these.
