  1. Hello! Today has been a day of recovery. We had the diploma performances' afterparty last night. I haven't been drinking too much lately – I clearly had forgotten how to do it. Or at least how to do a few shots less. Well in the end the only casualty was morning which is good. It was definitely cool to party with friends. Today I've been doing my basic resting habits of cleaning, music, reading and planning the upcoming week. I've reflected on my personal journal. Today I hit a spot where I felt that I've done enough thinking and should start doing. It's good to notice this point, because once I was only trying to crack through problems by thinking – The problem, which more often than not, was that I was solely thinking and not doing. Thanks Mario! I greatly appreciate your comment. You've been doing the weekly challenges more than journaling online, haven't you? Today I'm grateful for: Spotting anxietyThe BeatlesKnowing that the little good actions compound over time. If you have some good habits that you have found useful, I'd love to hear them!Improving at maths – I'm find new respect towards mathematic as I learn more of it. It truly is a way of expressing the world just like writing isBeing able to walk on lakes while they are frozen
  2. Hello! Today was a chill day. I went to school and worked an evening shift which was rather relaxed. The best moment of today was meeting new people at work. Going to see some theatre performances tomorrow and do the last presentation of our own. It's going to be cool! Otherwise doing pretty well, studying, habits are going rather smoothly. Today I'm grateful for: Living in a rather small city – It's easy to meet people by common friendsBeing able to study if it's a slower day at work. No time wastedOur schools team spiritCamille Saint-SaënsSour milkLiving a life full of action, things to do, goals to chase, people to meet
  3. Hello! Today has been a cool day. I've been studying and exercising. The best moment of today was definitely performing the diploma-performance! It was much fun – I really like our group. I'm doing pretty well, sleeping a lot the last few nights. Work- and Jiu-Jitsuwise I'm doing fine. There is plenty of studying to be done and I feel like I need to track and work at it better. Nevertheless making good progress in that area as well. Today I'm grateful for: Becoming familiar with new people – I didn't remember that it was this awesome! It's always so enriching to get to know how others live. Sometimes I get into a rut and meeting people who live differently just expands the view of the world.Learning new sweeps in Bjj. They've got to be one of my favourites. I'm focusing on positional play quite much, maybe it would be good to bring more aggressive playstyle to the board as well.SoulPlenty of sleepThe performance went wellPolaroid Cameras
  4. Hello! Today was a nice day. I've studied, exercised and rested. The best moments of today were had while playing volleyball. We had a nice relaxed mood and were able to play long and intensive balls. I feel that I'm slowly learning a bit more about this sport and it's much fun. There is a lot of work to be done. I'm glad I had time to catch my breath today. It's good to know that I'm working towards my goals. It helps me keep going on. I've reflected a bit on anxiety and feel like it has been good to learn more about it. Today I'm grateful for: Casual sportsFree Food at school, as if free education wasn't good enoughSiberia V2, only part I have left of my old pc-set, these have pretty good quality of soundEnglish, It's pretty awesome to access all this information, books, this forum, videosPerforming the diploma tomorrow
  5. Hello! Today has been a cool day! I went to school, studied and trained Bjj. In the morning I felt that today would be run on the last fumes but I've been pretty energetic. I'm going to take a good rest tonight to charge my batteries back up. The best moments of today were laughing at inappropriate things with my friends, and having fun while training. Overall today was a great day. I find that goals are very important basis for life. I'm noticing that the friends who have set clear goals are managing their work much better than those who have not sacrificed much thought to the subject. The goals I'm working towards have also made the harder part of doing the work easier and actually desirable. Sleep is a true blessing! Today I'm grateful for: Sharing experiences with friendsGood time training. I had fun with my partner and the spars today were really goodMuse – Panic Station, Boss songNaps and restingTea and booksBeing quite early on my schedule
  6. Hello! Today has been an ok day. I've been tired from working and studying hard. At the moment I find that there is not too much energy for socializing, which is frustrating. I still feel that my goals are worth the effort. Now it's time to work on them, after them there will be time to enjoy the fruits of work with friends. The best moment of today was having fun with friends while training for a theatre diploma. I'm getting about 7.5 hours of sleep nightly which is too little. Gotta work on that. Today I'm grateful for: Meeting awesome peopleBeing able to drive a carDelicious roasted trout caught from a nearby lakeFranz SchubertHot Chocolate
  7. Hello! Today was a cool day! I've been studying, working and helping my neighbor out. The best moment of today was being able to give good constructive feedback. Another good one was stumbling across my teacher while working. She had her awesome kid with her and he hugged me spontaneously – It was the first time we've met. Jk I've been on the go for nearly the whole day, so I'm going to get my rest now! Good Night! Today I'm grateful for: Eppu Normaali – A great Finnish Rock bandMeeting my teachersDelicious meatballsGetting paid for workingIndex Funds
  8. Hello! Today was a nice day! I've been resting, cleaning, reading and hanging out with friends. Cool moments of today were seeing the sunrise, skating in sunny weather and being with my friends. It's great to have different kinds of friends. For now I feel a bit exhausted by mental aspect of self-development. I feel like I easily forget that applying the information is very important. At least I wouldn't like it to be like read a book, think "Oh what cool philosophy, let's apply this", "Oh look another book!" and then forget or mix up all the information. Dunno, The point is anyways that I crave for activities and doing things right now. You don't have to understand the all the minutiae to start and learn. Also I'm pretty tired, which adds an extra layer. It's late, good night GameQuitters. Today I'm grateful for: ColdplayMy friend Mikko – He's a very interesting and wholehearted guyPatience and flexibilityMathematicsThis sunny day
  9. Hello! Today has been a good day. I've been to school, studied, read and worked. The best moment of today was meeting my old kindergarten teacher or being with my friends. I'm a bit tired so I'll keep it short. Tomorrow will be my resting day. You better not make too good chess moves then. Today I'm grateful for: Having plenty of foodGood winter tiresMeeting different kind of peopleChocolateKurzgesagt
  10. Oh damn! Are you going to the Uni already? We Finns have the compulsory military service so beginning to study in university is usually delayed with a year so it feels like there is still a long way to go. What are you going to study?
  11. Hello! Today was a day with ups and downs though the dust has settled a bit towards the evening. I've been doing my basic habits of studying, reading and doing sports. The best moment of today was learning cool new sweeps in BJJ and playing the piano in the morning. I've been pondering a bit in my personal journal – good reflection there. I'm continuing to read Jim Rohn's book and it sure is an enjoyable read. I feel like my body is craving for some physical time to heal from exercising consistently. Saturday will be my rest day. Today I'm grateful for: Making the changes into my schedule before this phase began. The free time for resting and activities of personal interest has sure been worth itLearning to know myself better – Socrates is rightBeing able to learn things by repetition. What a wonderful quality us humans haveQueenCar heater
  12. Hello! Today was a cool day! I studied, exercised and prepared my applications for my military service. I ran a cooper-test today and improved my last result by 300 metres which is great. It seems like the aerobic exercise from cycling somewhat transfers to running. The best moment of today was the feeling after running the cooper and listening to cello concertos with my father. My new books arrived – Jim Rohn's book is starting off well with his personal attitude I enjoy. It's good to have something interesting to read. I've found a couple more books that I'm interested on. Sure thing, exercise is good to keep in mind. I've been doing sports, even if only a walk, every day and I feel like it's had a very positive impact on my routine. I'm sure you'll figure out what's best for you. Today I'm grateful for: Cello's sound – It some how reminds medieval times, LoTR feelings etc.Making through the bureaucratic papersEmail and internet – After looking for stamps and envelopes it's got to be said that E-mail is awesomeMuse, Edgar Elgar and Dvorak, The Austro-Hungarian empire rockedTime to sleep late tomorrow
  13. Hello! Today has been a fun day. I studied, trained Bjj and got a new haircut so I no longer look like I'd been living in a cave for the last two months. BJJ sure got my endorphins running and I'm feeling pretty hyped. Going to probably study a bit of maths and go to sleep. The best moment of today was talking with my father about music and eating Brussels Sprouts. I'm noticing that my moods affect my thoughts. When I'm tired or anxious the world seems like a messy (or messier than usual), annoying and insensible place. Sleeping, eating and exercising is pretty much like pushing the "light up" button on my Macbook multiple times – The world feels just that much brighter. Today I'm grateful for: Brussels sproutsMy maths skills are improving, because I'm working on themTrevor on Goodreads – pretty random, but he sure is a sophisticated son of a gunExercisingBeing able to take shovers and clean myself – I read that they celebrated dirtiness in the Medieval Era and they proclaimed a man as a saint as he was able to travel across Germany to the Vatican without getting wet neither by washing himself nor getting wetted by the rainMy barber
  14. Hello! Today has been a cool day. I'm feeling a bit weird, nevertheless I've done my habits of reading, studying and exercising. The best moments of today were landing a new sweep while training and having a conversation with a person whom I'd like to know better. I think it's a speaker that is made resistant for water somehow. Hot showers are the best replacement for Karaoke! Today I'm grateful for: Washing machinesJim Rohn's Character cultivation audios – he sure is a beast when it comes to speakingChickenNice conversations todayHaving more time than expected today
  15. Hello! Today was a cool day! I've been resting after yesterday. The party was great, I was a bit tired, but we had fun bathing in sauna, eating cake and hanging out. Today has been my rest day so I've been cleaning and assembling entropy back into it's correct form, taking a long nap, a walk and reflecting on my personal journal. It was very fun and I found out new thoughts and perspectives which feels Awesome! The best moment of today was stumbling upon my friend and walking with him. Phew, I've just written my brains out in my journal. I'm going to charge them back up now. I'm a bit worried that I can't keep everything I just wrote in my mind, but maybe it's like opening a new branch for water and leaving the current to shape it with time. Today I'm grateful for: Being able to seeHaloo Helsinki! Must be one of the best Finnish rock bands atmHaving a loud speaker in sauna = best raves ever Having time to restWritingEnvironment that is supportive for growthMy friend, he has been very supportive towards me and everyone
  16. Hello! Today has been an intense day. I've been working pretty much the whole day and it's time to catch my breath now. The best moment of today was shopping with my old man. I'm pretty tired at the moment – I'm going to take it easy so I'll have the strength to work and host a small party tomorrow. Good Night! Today I'm grateful for: Cashew nutsSpotify's radio-applicationMy friend teaching me how to prepare better green teaFinding Physics more interesting as I study itAretha Franklin
  17. Hello! Today was cool day! I got to sleep later due to my schedule. I've been studying, exercising, cooking and reading. The best moments of today were trying to play bass and training BJJ. I'm looking for new exciting things to read. I've been re-reading Darren Hardy's the Compound effect, but after just reading it feels a bit dull even though it has a good message. Hmm, maybe some book on psychology, traveling, mathematics could be fun for change. Or maybe even a novel or poems to gain experience for the text analysis part of the matriculation examination. On the personal development frontier I have The Seven Strategies for Wealth and Happiness by Jim Rohn arriving by mail. Today I'm grateful for: Soul musicLiver casserole and lingonberry jam, Finnish delicacyBeing in good healthAwesome sandwiches from our cafeteriaGetting a haircut soon – My hair is going to soon look like a white afro at this rate
  18. Hello! Today was a better day! I studied, read, played volleyball with friends and practiced a diploma-performance. The best moments of today were catching quite a hard ball and being with friends. Today has been better in terms of anxiety as well. It's hard to describe the flow of these feelings – natural yet complicated. Thanks Cam! Thank you Tom! Your occasional pop-ups are always refreshing! Thanks, It did move on! Today I'm grateful for: HumorHöntsy = Playing with a laid-back approach and having fun while doing sportsCalling my auntFinding a couple buddies to study withPatience – still learning this
  19. Hello! Today has been an alright of a day. I've been feeling anxious for some reason. I might reflect this more deeply on my personal journal or just go to sleep – probably the latter. Today I've been studying, reading and practicing a diploma. The best moment of today was having good time with friends. These kind of feelings come and go. I'll need to be patient. If there is something bigger than just day to day differentiating moods or tiredness I'll figure it out with time. Today I'm grateful for: Friends who cheer me up even when I'm feeling blueJim Rohn audiosNot having to experience negative feelings aloneFiguring out that having the radiator turned to max and drying my gi in my room turns it into a jungle, which might not be best for sleepingDouble naps – took two today which is an achievement of it's own – both were about twenty minutes as well
  20. Hello! Today has been a good day. I've been to school, studied and trained BJJ, which was really nice. Now I'm going to sleep early, will read a bit of book and listen to Jim Rohn. The best moments of today were wrestling, a good breakfast, friends saying happy birthday and spending time with my sister. I got a blow from knee to the side of my head. It's always a bit annoying. I remember what @Tom said about martial arts, remembering to look at it from multiple points of view. If I notice some negative consequences I'll change my approach. So far it has been pretty much a source of overthinking and a way to forget all the positive sides of learning martial arts like building confidence and character, training your body all-around, releasing endorphins, making new friends and having tons of fun. Thanks you Tatu! I'm on the summer-team with you! Thank you for your wishes! Tack så mycket, min svenska vän! I've had an awesome day, thank you everyone! Today I'm grateful for: People remembering my birthday, I want to make sure I remember theirs as wellBeing able to train todayNap of 20 minutes – I've been up and running ever sinceHaving had the chance to live these years, make friends and learnTalking about personal limits and how we can better live in harmony with my sister
  21. Hello! Today was a cool day, even a bit unsuspected. I did my basic resting activities of cleaning, cooking, reading, listening to Jim Rohn. My aunt bought me a ticket to circus as a present, which was an awesome gift! It was great and inspiring to see people who have developed their physical talents to such extent. We then ate some cake and I taught my grandma how to use an Ipad. I've got to say that she is a natural talent, already playing music on his JBL Charge 2+. In the evening I took a walk and randomly met my friend Maria, We walked and talked for a bit and I invited her for a spontaneous cup of tea. We had a really good time. What a great thing to happen. I've got my birthday tomorrow, Yay! One year older – one year wiser. Today I'm grateful for: The possibilities that technology brings with itPeople's desire to learn even when oldDelicious chocolate cakeLearning to play Mozart betterThe great year behind and ahead
  22. Hello! Today was a good day. I did the things I needed to and had fun. The best moment of today was dining with an old friend of mine. He's been my friend ever since we met at the kindergarten. I'm very grateful for a friendship like that. I reflected a bit about my current feelings, ideas and life on my personal journal. It's the magic of haulers. There is no way for the warm layer of air to get out from back, neck or ankles. Once you are completely insulated the temperature outside doesn't matter (to a certain degree ofc). How cold is it there in Japan? Today I'm grateful for: Friends made along the wayHaving a rest day tomorrow!Hot saunaHaving goalsWholehearted techers
  23. Hello! Today was a weird day. I slept long after yesterdays marathon. I've been studying and working the rest of the day. The best moment of today was joking with customers and workmates. Rolling forward with my life and goals. Today I'm grateful for: Mates from down under – AC/DCProgressing with my studiesA restaurant owner being a great model of responsibility and humility. I need to go eat there sometimeIbuprofenGoodreads.com – My new addiction to replace reddit and youtube
  24. Hello! Today was a good day. I helped my friends, studied, trained a bit and did a LoTR movie marathon, which I sadly had to quit before the third film because I've got work tomorrow. The best moment of today was exploring and clothing properly. This is me after the movie marathon. It's getting a bit colder – atm -21 Celsius/-5,8 degrees Fahrenheit. Clothing properly makes the weather enjoyable and cool to experience. Today I'm grateful for: Hanging out with friends in personStudying hardGetting a reminder about something is should keep in mindSmall acts of kindnessThe world
