Spent the day in a town very proud of their water. They have water related festivals and everything.
I know. π
Gym goers will be like "I'm taking it easy today" then spend an hour in the gym absolutely not taking it easy.

One of the best mental health mantras I've ever heard is "stop stirring muddy water"
When things are going wrong, especially if you're prone to intellectualizing problems, it can feel empowering to keep rehashing the issue
Your brain wants to see if it missed any details because stressing out feels like "doing something"
Often though you're just ruminating, "stirring muddy water," which is making it harder, not easier, to solve the issue
Sometimes you need to do nothing in order to see things clearly

A man needs extremes. A warehouse rave one weekend, a cabin in the forest with zero reception another, then a week by the coast with nothing but the sea, a book and a bit of tranquillity, and then back to the iron and the routine like nothing happened Monk in the morning, gentleman at night, warrior whenever it's called for. Honestly riding the ebbs and flows is what keeps me free, and impervious to the slow grey drift most men call "normal"

Stop frying your brain with endless short form content. Read long, complicated, books. Especially novels. Cultivate the ability to think deeply. To focus for long periods. Stare into space and enjoy boredom. Do tasks without any media playing in the background. Resist the urge to reach for your phone every time you feel uncomfortable. Get used to being with uncomfortable emotions instead. Wonder and think about the questions you have instead of asking AI. Become deeply present with everyone around you. Your ability to focus, pay attention, to think deeply, is one of your most valuable assets. Reclaim the immense beauty of experiencing your life directly instead of living it through a screen.
Day 357 and 358 of me asking you to drink more water (I missed yesterday so now you have to drink twice as much. My bad.)
There's an older gentleman who frequents the coffee shop I go to whose shirt collection's level of whimsy cannot be topped. He's allergic to plainness. Silly shirts only.
Today's was red & blue dripping paintbrushes on a white background w/ red stitching accents.

Yes, it's hard.
Yes, it's terrifying.
Yes, you'll have doubts.
Yes, you might shake in your boots.
Yes, you might have your timbers shivered.
Yes, you will still continue onward regardless.
Building a world of your own choosing, ignoring what doesn't serve, no matter what anyone says. The nay saying is not merely ignored, it ceases to exist. People will still give you their nay, but you'll hear it as a yay, because it's now a compass guiding your direction.
Get up and get to work. Your work. Not workβs work. Work thatβs important to you. Get after it. Letβs go. No excuses. Rise and shine.
Wipe the blood off and keep going.
(Also, donβt use your pocket knife toward yourself, idiot. (I remind myself.))
When I hold the door open for someone and they say thank you, I usually say βof courseβ because, of course.

If I have 20 minutes and no equipment here's the workout I usually do
30 air squats
25 pushups
15 front lunges (each side)
25 pushups
15 reverse lunges (each side)
Repeat until 20 minutes is done
Works every time
You just lost your 'I don't have time or equipment' excuse
