Pain never felt so good...yeah right

Journal Project day 3:

First off, I am shot. Had a good night at JiuJitsu. I was complimented by some guys there today on my defense. To me, it basically means I have no offense. But at the same time, I make it hard for people to submit me. Does it make you invincible if no one can beat you? Yeah I know I am not beating anyone (well not quite true), but sometimes in life, you need to just learn to survive (kinda depressing but not really, learning to fail means learning to develop a thick skin).

Feeling in one of those kind of moods:


And:




I don't think of it as depressing music but more introspective music. Life lately has been flying by at the speed of light. I have been doing a lot of things but in some ways I haven't been able to fully enjoy everything. Maybe it is a concern of this project but I also realize that it's par for the course. Just a rant...just saying. 

Was able to catch up with some friends today, at least a little bit. Taught pretty much most of the day and  just trying to catch up on the non existent sleep I had last night. Finished the Hugh McLeod book and looking for my next read. One book at a time is working for me. This time management thing is gonna take some getting used to.

My social life has been somewhat non existent. Maybe it is a winter thing, or maybe it's just a busy thing.  Maybe it's just a me thing. Maybe I'm crazy. 

Looking forward to yoga tomorrow. My body feels somewhat out of it when I skip too long between sessions. Watched some Tim Ferriss on youtube today. It was interesting for the most part. What struck me was a part where he talked about doing "too much". He was referring to a sprinting coach and how he taught his team. He said that only 10% of the sprinters would have to be told to do more. The other 90% had to be told to do less. Sometimes in life you accomplish more by actually doing less. Let life happen right. I'm not saying that the lazy bum down the street has it right necessarily, but there is a lot to be said about knowing when to "make things happen" and when "to let things happen."

Anyhow, time for some deep recovery...later;)
