23/4/19 ^^^Gearing for Athlete4Life

If I am concentrating only on Personal Excellence, I think I should be doing fine.

Which means I selectively filter the rest of the "noises" out of my life.  In my case the pursuit of excellent is reading, running and writing.

Honestly I had not been reading much.  Therefore by my definition I am not excellent.  Unless you want to count me reading Dreams of Mirrors and my reference to Winning!!! as the input worthy to be called reading.

I also been wanting to keep up with my swimming which I had not been successful.

Then there is also the Emperor's Routine and cycling.

What I'm trying to say is, I had the model, now is to make it into reality.

Perfecting the do require patience.  I am the living laboratory of Acta Non Verba.  I need to perfect the daily routines in order to become the Athlete4Life.

I dread the coming of Ramadan.  Definitely my sleep will be disrupted.  There will not be tennis for one month.  The best I can do is eat One Meal a Day (OMAD) and continue my 10 K Training.

Hey, have you tried the Super Seven?

• Magnesium
• Vitamin B Complex
• 3 Black Seed Oil
• 3 Fish Oil
• MCT Oil
• Salted Butter
• Moringa

It sure makes a lot of difference in my mental clarity.  Once my stock finishes, I will only consume Moringa and the salted butter.  I wish I can continue with this concoction.  However the cost is a bit too high for me.

I need to seriously save money.  I can do away with magnesium and vitamin B complex but the oils are quite relevant in regulating my blood sugar.

This month my weight plateaued at 85 kg.  So definitely I need to do something different next month.  I intend to do OMAD LCHF all the way.  The culprit is the carbs.  That is the 80% of the issue.  Exercise is only 20%.

To live life as an Athlete4Life requires discipline, persistence and consistency.  I need to pair these 3 values against sleepiness, laziness, inertia and procrastination (SLIP).  The book Fit2Fat2Fit is a good reference,  Unfortunately Drew Manning's writing style is long winded.  I want to get to the gist of it.  Where's the beef?

Tomorrow I'll do something different.  Instead of writing before I run, I just have coffee and then straight away run.  That way I can start running at 7:15 am instead of 8:45 am like just now.  Otherwise it gets too hot.

To build the momentum I need consistency.  It's not rocket science.

OK baby enough ranting.  I'm going out for dinner and then I will be reading Fit2Fat2Fit.

I love you honey.
