More about myself
I don't think I'm in much of a writing mood right now but I want to keep some sort of consistency with this. I've never been much of a consistent person, I could certainly keep at something for a week or so but after that I just can't ever get it to become a routine. For instance, when I first started my job there was a lot of stress, in fact so much so it began to affect my body. I developed what's called PVC's (Premature Ventricular Contraction) about 6 month into my job, it only became clear to me after my trip to the ER that my then life style couldn't support much of a healthy body or mind. The next couple days I did everything within my power to turn myself around, I went to the supermarket and picked out every kind of fruit I lay eyes on, picked up perhaps 3 or 4 bags of salad, and also an array of multi-vitamins including folic-acid and fish oil. I also went ahead and setup an account with our local LA Fitness Gym, something that I kind of dreaded because it looked quite intimidating, but I started going every morning at around 7:30 to take a mile jog on the treadmill. I told myself that I would keep this up every week if I really wanted change, and I did, until the PVC's went away. I didn't entirely stop going to the gym, I just started going every other day in the evenings. I still do buy healthy food at the supermarket and take my vitamins but never on a consistent basis. Out of this whole ordeal I did gain something positive, I am more aware of my bodily needs and more conscious of what I eat. I guess for me, consistency is only needed in the desire for some end goal, a reason that drives you to take action, so in a sense it is my inability to see reason that I really have no drive to keep any routine... Honestly, after getting my job I've stopped caring about what I wanted in life and just thought about what I would do in the weekend or that night. Well anyway, I want to end this by saying that with recent events my perspective on life has changed a lot. One of the interests I listed here is "Personal Growth", it is something that I have been reading about for quite a while now but it is only recently have I begun to understand what it is all about. Gotta go get my laundry now, be back tomorrow.
