What did you give up on today?

Today I gave up on accomplishing many tasks all at once. I am learning to take things one at a time.

How do I get to juggle all of it?

I am learning to take things one at a time. I am learning not to rush from one task to another. I am learning to quickly switch focus and not get distracted.

Operative Word: LEARNING.

The change in behavior, in terms of formative assessment, is taking place, but would still need conscious reminders about accomplishing tasks, getting distracted. It will take awhile.

I am currently addicted to Ginger Lemon Tea! I have been brewing every other day since Saturday and the aroma of the ginger in boiling water is also therapeutic in itself.

I noticed that I am slowly gearing towards minimal and organic means of self-care and healthy diet options as well.

Sunflower moisturizer
Olive oil for evening face moisturizer
Apple Cider Vinegar in the morning ( I should start using it for my vinaigrette dressing as well)
Ginger Lemon Tea

But of course, I still eat rice, around 2-3 times in a week :)

I didn't get to do the 10-15 minute before-shower workout this morning because I was preoccupied aka lazy aka have a lot of excuses aka lazy again and again. But I need to keep it going.

It is flu season and I need all the health care I know of to make sure that I don't get hit by the virus just because I have weak immune system. Nobody will take care of me if I get sick here.

Conference call sessions starts again tomorrorr! Waaaa.. But one-by-one, I will get things done. Slowly and with focus and in high quality.

I will do my best.

It's her time to go.

It's her time to go. I keep telling myself. Today, my former co-worker, E had already left for Hiroshima. She quit the company we used to both work for and had decided to find another job in another place for several reasons. I was hoping to see her before she leaves just so I can also thank her personally and wish her well on her way. I know it would have been emotional and wacky at the same time. She told me that she had intended not to see me because she is avoiding the emotional breakdown that may arise as she leaves the city. She has been crying all week-long, she said. I sent her a message telling her that another co-worker is set to resign and that I had decided to take a holiday flight back home at the end of December and be back on New Year's Eve in Miyazaki. I will be spending the last day of 2018 enroute back to Japan and welcoming 2019, either in a bus enroute to Miyazaki or in a capsule hotel in Fukuoka. Just because with the sudden changes, I may have di

​I weighed in and I’m at 55kgs today. I need to lose 7kgs to get down to my ideal weight.  I am filled with so much frustration right now about myself. I was able to reach it for 2 years and here I am falling out from it.  I am not sure which one I got so much high from, was the journey of being fit or being fit in itself. I remember telling myself that exercising and working out and seeing results of weight loss can bring a different kind of high, it’s addicting like everything else coz once you have somewhat reached a peak level of fitness in comparison to the previous self, it brings so much joy and confidence like never before. And I even told myself before, “If being fit is a form of addiction, this is the kind of addiction I would like to get stuck with for life.” I used to be the only one posting and sharing my fitness journey, now almost everyone who just used to message me about working out and weight loss, they are on the peak of achievement of their body goals.  It is so fru

 Second to the last day of the 9th month of the year. then, 3 more months to call it a wrap for this month.  If my life will be a content that I will curate a story from, I wonder how it will all turn out? Will it be a story people will be willing to pay for? Will it be a story I am willing to share to the world?  Am I willing to share my flaws? My bads?  Of course I am excited to tell the world my triumphs, my inspirations, my dreams, ..... my journey.  But it isn't easy. Even here, sometimes, writing can be very painful. Most of the time, I am just lazy to move and write.
