So where did this quote come from? I stumbled across it from a retweet on someone I follow. Here's the blog post.
Am I looking to change the world? Become a superstar, inspiring millions of people? Have some incredible blog that has tons of followers? Not exactly. Babysteps, young grasshoppa.
Just a little under six weeks until my wedding in Key West. It was time to get shit straight. It actually started this morning before I found the article. Finally got my ass out of bed after a two week hiatus and did my P90X for the day. Even little stuff was bugging me... letting a thing of strawberries go bad because I wasn't working out and making my shakes in the morning. Wasting a half gallon of milk for the same reason. Being lazy and having to throw away leftovers because I decided fast food was just easier.
Something bad happens in my sleep. I read these great articles on just about anything. SharePoint (my work), SQL (I don't do much of it, but Brent Ozar is a cool dude), exercise (Tony Horton has a good page here and here that I started reading), etc. I get all inspired... pumped up to fire off an hour of P90X the next morning... and then I go to sleep. The alarm goes off and holy hell, where did all of that inspiration go?
Maybe this is all about me being a night owl. I've never liked the mornings. Stay up until 12 or 1 in the morning and get up around 9 has been much more my style. Maybe I should switch up working out in the evenings. That might be the plan for P90X round two. Right now I'm getting solid on this morning routine, so I gotta stick with it.
I had one stumble yesterday. I was so ridiculously sore, I could barely turn over in bed to turn off the alarm. It just wasn't going to happen. So I made up the workout this morning and I have Yoga on Fridays, to that'll be happening tonight. Not sure if two workouts in one day is good, but Yoga is a lower impact so we'll see how it goes...
