Lets gooooo, loved your format 🙂

You never know what the other person passed through in order to get to where they are, and you don't even know if what they say is true exactly, not because they're lying outright, but sometimes they even are "cheating" themselves. For example, I've been eating throughout some of my "concentrated" units for a while. Also I do not earn money as of now. I have a Visa without permission to work in Spain. Although I got myself to this situation through long years of work. And, when I wasn't in this situation I was also doing concentrated units. But there are just such a boatload of information you don't have. Never compare yourself to others. That person you see running at a 3min/km pace, you don't know if he is running for 5 minutes or for 5 hours, you also don't know if he's been training for 10 years or 10 days. Focus on doing your best and that's it. You vs. you. Definitely start small, Rome wasn't built in a day. Way to go on noticing the things you did well. I also think this 3 things well to 1 thing I could improve ratio are beneficial, because they allow you to remain confident but still always look for something to improve 🙂 Hope this helps.

I currently use DW learn German to learn German, but I finished 2 trees in Duolingo - German to Spanish and Spanish to German, also I've learned quite a bit in Memrise and listened to songs with subtitles, and well a lot of stuff.

Food Schedule Update 22.5-6.6 (Not including 6.6) Everything remains the same apart from 1. 70g rice which i may consume on Saturday (or as much as there is left in the rice bag, because I just don't want to throw it out) 2. coconut oil - 30 at non-running days(Instead of 60g olive oil), 60 on running days instead of 30 and 60g olive oil, meaning Sundays usually 3. Olive oil, allowed only on run and a half days 60 grams, on these days, coconut oil remains 45g 4. The moving of meals for Monday with the run and a half I am to keep as it is for now only one week where I do a jog on Thursday, I think one week wasn't enough to gauge it's effect and decide whether to keep it for the two weeks or reverse completely to not do it at all 5. Almonds 10 more grams everyday because I'm increasing the running amount 6. because i got a different chard type eat up to 2 leaves of those a day until they run out, then 50g a day of the second type (fast days keep no chard on them) 7. Pears are interchangeable with apples, that's what I have planned to begin with and that's what I have, I don't even have any other fruit, so it shouldn't count as a plan change, rather just a clarification.

Gotta catch them in text right away or else they escape like a Pokemon 🙂 Why does trust contradict independence or autonomy? Like because if you trust someone to do something you're giving away control? Well, if it's a person you trust for the first time, then it's unpredictable what they'll do and it's fine, because living life without "leverage" of trust will cost you a lot more. If it's a person you're dealing with not for the first time and they've often broken their promises then be ready for this in advance. These are my 5 cents on the matter, feel free to comment and elaborate if you meant something else.

Why? Because first If I sleep and then do it, first the sleep is not continuous but with a break in between, Second because once I'm out of schedule I do everything slower, double the time so it seems. Third I do everything slower because night hormones also play a role and the body is more predisposed to sleep. (Maybe it's more reason two than three that i do thing slower, but both play somewhat of an effect) Gaming (Death, Slavery, Regret, Disease) - 5 Yan (Life, Individuality, Freedom, Purpose, Self-Fulfillment) - 121
