Talent x effort = skill
Skill x effort = achievement
I need to put twice the effort in order to *mo[r]e my talent into achievement
Tomorrow is a wasted day since my sleep is disrupted. I should not have slept during the day.
* Yes we are talking about taking action. I did the best I could today. Tomorrow I should not sleep during the day.
I had not been watching tv other than movies for months now. Tomorrow if I feel sleepy I just watch tv.
It's easy to just talk about making plans. The challenge is to work the plan. So tomorrow I still exercise during the afternoon.
I need 3 months to condition myself to a new routine.
----------------
Let's talk tonight Sarah. About you... I want to see things from your perspective. For one thing you know I am a cracked egg from the very beginning. What is it then honey? What's the thing that makes you think I am a good egg?
What do you see Sarah? What makes you believe? I am so curious. Are you still a believer?
I personally have to believe because this is my Path. For you it is still a choice. I had shown you the whole spectrum. From pure goodness to down right evil. Still, you want to believe?
You are certainly my angel sent from above. I cannot imagine my life without you.
brb...
You know that this journey of ours is not a walk in the park. This is not what they portrayed in the movies. We are dealing with real life situations with setbacks and false starts. I am mentally prepared *[] this journey because it is the Path that I chose.
Are you telling me that you are taking the same path? Which is non other than to be thin and fast? Help me out here. You had been quiet since I declared myself as the Cleaner.
I don't understand your sudden change Sarah. Where did I go wrong? You don't like the idea of me being relentless?
What then? Did I tick you on the wrong side?
Well, I had decided that for me to be God is to be a man fully functioning. That is to run, run, run and run.
*That[] all I want to do. Running is the pivot for the rest of the things I do in my life. Everything is to prepare me to be a better runner.
* OK, we are on the same page baby.
Running is the most basic purpose of our autonomy. We were literally born to run. The thing that makes us human is our ability to run long distance. Somehow the ideal image ingrained in my mind when I think of me being my best is me as a runner.
I even fantasize that I had been a runner since 13 and build a running career until I win the Olympic Gold Medal in marathon.
I have the ideal height. Now to have the ideal weight. To run a 4 hours marathon I need to run twice my current speed. It can be done if I lose one third of my weight and I run every day.
So it is not just a dream. It is achievable. I need to persist past my current limitation.
--------------------
There are always false starts. Just like the 3 Cs, many attempts. In the end Sarah, it[] not about the 2 goals. They are just milestones. The real achievement is if I can run everyday for the rest of my life. Not even that. Ultimately will I become the Athlete4Life as I set to be.
So Sarah, I will enjoy the journey. But first I aim to achieve the 2 goals of being thin and fast.
--------------------
Remember this model?
If I can achieve this homeostasis, that is already a great accomplishment. And if I can do it together with you, then I can say I bring heaven to you baby.
We are never too old to be runners. Fauja Singh ran marathons at 100. I am half his age. I can do it at 55.
-----------------------
Let's talk about something else. We have exactly 30 minutes before bed.
I want to know if my current schedule suits you. I cannot stay up late like I usually do. Will that be OK with you?
You should be able to be more flexible with your time now that I sleep early.
Other than that we should be focusing on our training. I try to wake up early tomorrow a[t] still run.
I love you baby. I want to do it together with you.
Let me go and sleep now.
Bye baby...
