Entry 11.3 (Dozed off at about 21 and woke up accidentally at 00:01 of 12.3 to finish evenng routine) Day 55: No Useless Videos Day 887: Sticking to Food schedule Day 490: Eating Only between 06:30 and 19:00 (Last bite before 19:00) Day 38: Being in bed before 23:15 3 Things I did well no matter how small  -having turned off quinoa at the 50 minutes point without mixing it manually. Only a little bit after 30 minutes more when i added water because it looked a bit dry.  it seems it has been quite well cooked. (I think i should use the same ingredient amounts and try turning it off without fixing at the 45 minute point next time) Note: The pot used was a wide one but half height of the gray one - documentiing that to help me repeat results next week. -wake up at 4 20 even though 20 minutes later than first alarm clock, it could have easily become hours -Having taken a photo of the schedule on my phone, so that i wouldn't have to open the computer to see the plan when i came back from the run   1 Thing I could do better -Allocate times in the schedule for cooking that are a bit longer and for putting pots into the fridge.

Are you saying that the thought of increasing medication was a moment of weakness and that it was just a thought, but it's okay so long as you don't go through with it? Or that taking it up to begin with was a moment of weakness, and you shouldn't have done so and you should stop? Or that whether in the past or now, it's okay to take it so long as you don't start prioritizing gaming? In any case, appreciate your "OG" reference. You had me smiling with that term. Both because I appreciate your gratefulness and it makes me feel like I might have done something right, and because this is a corny term 🙂  Keep it up man.

I do not see myself as a pessimist. I just know that until you're not done, you're not done. Let's take a run for example: Even if you're miles ahead of the competition, you may get too confident and arrogant and go "easy" in the end, while the competition speeds up because they think they're too far behind, and lo and behold, your leverage is lost.  That is not to say that you didn't have any leverage to begin with or that your chance of winning wasn't higher when you had a long time gap between you and the person after you, but that even when you did, winning is still not certain and you must keep it up until it is DONE. Nonetheless, no one is taking your accomplishments away from you. I congratulate you for them but do not wish you to rest on your laurels. "Stay hard"  -David Goggins  

Yan, you're quite the pessimist! Day 63/90 in the bag. Work, kids, and exercise account for probably 95% of my days recently. Staying busy but feels good.
