The Hope Challenge

As to the the 2 parts to this latest challenge...

1) have a journal(s) established and be in the habit of putting entries in at least 3x per week. Entries on things your are learning, workouts you are doing etc

2) Establish a few goals in each category

How shall these be addressed?

1) Journal begun, only the daily execution remains to be done, which I shall endeavor to do, filling this journal with something that I hope might pass for prose enlightening, intelligent, thoughtful, or at least amusing. Most likely it will instead be mundane & inane, but not profane.

2) Goals goals goals...

How shall I strengthen my MIND? This is going to take some serious thought, and I dont have any answers right now I'm afraid.

How shall I strengthen my BODY? Exercise, surely. Cardio, yes. Strength training, yes. Fighter Practice? Yes. My good friend Casey has shown interest in learning to fight, in the next few weeks we will begin some training. To that end I will need to produce another full set of armor...

And let me not forget DIET! I need to continue to shift my diet, it is altogether filled with nonsense and foods I don't need to be eating. I shall begin with BREAKFAST! It is, after all the most important meal of the day. Then I will move on to Second Breakfast, then perhaps Elevensies...

How shall I strengthen my SPIRIT? I think I will start by finishing reading the Dalai Lama's book, How To Practice. We'll go from there.

Now get to work, Charles.
