Goals/Life Update - Day 270/1001
Jul. 1st, 2012 12:28 amAs a peaceful warrior, I would choose when, where and how I would behave. With that commitment, I began to live the life of a warrior. ~ Dan Millman, Way of the Peaceful Warrior
Goals Completed: 10
Goals in Progress: 27
Body: Again, no training (#1). The firework stand, and work, have again kept me out of the dojang. The fireworks stand may allow me to have a bit of a rainy day fund - if I'm willing to delay my life/training, sleep in a horse trailer, and stock fireworks in a Texas heatwave. I have very little internet access; I won't be responding to email, or be online very much, until after July 5th. It's more likely that I'll be delayed a month for my last belt test before my Cho Dan test (#2), but it will likely be worth it. Still no progress with sit-ups and push-ups (#5, #6).
Mind: I've finished re-reading The Book of Five Rings (Go Rin No Sho), and I'm halfway though Dan Millman's Way of the Peaceful Warrior (#28), between customers. I've also continued my mindful eating practice (#27) this week, but again only a few days. I've had a lengthy talk with Sienna (#26).
Work: No progress. Losing a day of work this week due to the 4th of July.
Life: Went to the Scorpions concert (#92), with Tesla opening, and Rocked Like A Hurricane. *grin* Helped a friend accomplish a personal goal (#79). Got 'Ol Number 3's solar cooker (#100), although I haven't had the chance to cook anything with it yet. Although 'Ol Number 3 is ready to deploy, she didn't actually do so. The situation at the firework stand makes her deployment unnecessary, and I save money by not buying RV insurance or paying for her safety inspection, yet. Ol' Number 3 will have to wait for a shakedown run later this summer.
