Training (Just Do It)

I have been struggling with my training for awhile now. A lot of the times it has been worked related. I feel as though I am stuck in a loop. Not training, admit not training, start training again, then work pumps up the overtime, throws me for a  off of consistent training, then I don’t train again, then start the cycle again.

Where I fail: 

-  I get lots of work then start thinking not enough time and I am tired.

-  I get easily de motivated and depressed. It is a cycle of failure 

-  I make to many excuses. Even if some or a lot are valid it is no excuse for doing nothing. In my situation.

-  My lack of conviction and consistency.

Where I succeed:

- I can see the problem and am fully aware of it and I know how to fix my problem.

How to fix my issues:

- easy answer Just do it.

- actual answer start making king fu apart of my life again. 

- the power of recording my progress is very powerful.

- I know when during the days I usually can get some practice in. During my work. 

- I need to train to what I am physically fit for right now and not go to crazy and hurt myself.

- I need to keep the power of gratitude on my mind daily and appreciate the people that are around me that care about me.

I could put a schedule of when I can probably get some training in, but I know that for me that is a system doomed for failure as soon as I start missing my schedule. I know it will start to break apart and then I fall back into my loop. I need to keep in the for front of my mind when to take the opportunity’s to train when it presents itself and record. Instead of getting home from work exhausted and rest. Get home exhausted and get ready for some training. I know I don’t have to go super hard but I know it starts with me.

Mother’s Day

Working in Hinton has not been so bad. I have definitely worked worse places. I have been trying to make time to really enjoy the nature when I can. 

I know we just had Mother’s Day yesterday, but I realize as I get older how much more I appreciate my parents and I usually try to do something for them on that day. I know I made life hard for my Mom when growing up. I used to be a very angry kid. I know for sure that my mom will go to hell and back for me. I show my appreciation to her by getting her favourite things. Salted Carmel chocolate and a bouquet of flowers. 

For the Mothers out there happy Mother’s Day

Tired

 This is my first time doing 14 on and and 7 days off. They are each 10 hour shift some times 12 hour. I just finished day 6 of 14. I have been trying to keep track of my sleep schedule, because I do not want to be in a major car accident again.

   I am pretty sure I fell asleep while driving when I got into my last accident. So I would say my kung fu has been pushed back of the train, but I would say this time I have not cut out my training completely like I usually do. I have pulled back how often I practice my forms. 

Ever since my accident I do worry if I get the proper amount of sleep. I just really do not want to go through that struggle again. I will always be thankful for everything that I got to learn and grow because of the accident. I think I am good to wait a very long time till the next great lesson.

I heard this great quote “if there is no sunshine where you are then make some of your own”
