Day #86: Meditation Time, Meditation Time

Can you hear that?

No?

Listen again. Can you hear it now? That’s the sound of less than a week to go! Oh Yes!

My sugars this morning were 3.9 again.

I did a bit of yoga this morning, and even a few press-ups, which is a good indicator of where my energy levels are. I actually did some more resistance curls and pull ups last night too, and even got a little bit of a sweat on.

I do still weigh just less than 60kg though, so there’s no weight going back on as yet, just a little more energy.

I went to the Meditation group this morning and wow, what great way to start the day. Now I’ve already said that I’m by no means experienced at meditation, I’ve done it maybe 10 times in my life as I type this, but I am already feeling benefit from it in terms of being seriously chilled out afterwards, and just generally "still". It’s fantastic and I’d recommend it to anyone that hasn’t tried it. My view of it before was that it was probably something I should try but “I won’t bother just yet as I probably won’t be able to do it and that’ll put me off trying again” or somesuch negative stream of bullshit.

Anyway, as I’m starting to learn there is no such thing as failure, only results. Whatever you try, if you don’t “succeed”, you just got a different set of results, which you can use to build on for your next attempt. And surely getting results and trying is better than not trying in the first place? Yeah I think so.

So give it a go, you’ll thank yourself after.

I took the car down to Fernie Chrysler today to get the winter tyres put on, and headed to the library to continue working while they were doing it it. Damn it’s cold out there :). The weather itself is lovely, bright and crisp, but that always goes hand in hand at this time of year with "frickin’ freezin’"

I played a little "Call of Duty World at War" with my son tonight, and he thrashed me. No surprise there. And I used ot be so good at video games too. He’s got the eye for headshots I guess.

Well that’s me done for today, I never did do a video did I, I’ll try and give it a shot tomorrow.

So, have a good day, whatever you’re doing and remember -There is no failure, just results.

‘night.
