Tuesday 10/4/11

Physical:
1. DeadLift 5/45% 5/65% 5/75%
2. Good Morning 3×6
3. GH Sit Up
4. Full GHD 3×6

Mental: 20 min. seated meditation

Spiritual: Read prov. Ch 4
This verse stands out me:
23 Watch over your heart with all diligence, For from it flow the springs of life. 
Mostly because I'm reminded of a time when my pastor was explaining to me the Jewish tradition of saying heart when they are talking about the mind and gut when they talk about "heart," and loins when they are talking about "going with your gut feeling." So in reality, this verse is saying that we should watch over our thoughts with diligence, because our thoughts create our behaviors, values, and ultimately the results and our "life." This is a great reminder for me. I tend to focus on the negative, a lot. This is really, really counterproductive and destructive.  

Notes: I need to remind myself often that victory comes after faith has been tested. I had a random thought today that 1. The first commandment says to not have any other gods before Him; 2. faith is the price for salvation; 3. since He is faithful and Holy, He tells us to be like him (faithful and Holy); it makes sense then, that our temporal rewards come after we are faithful. Faith is increasingly important then for our physical, emotional,  mental and spiritual well being. I have no idea if this is biblical or true and real, just thinking about things.

But it turns out everything in life is the same as eating an elephant. You can onl

Mindset - Flip the Script

The stoic philosopher, Epictetus said, “Men are disturbed not by things but by the views which they take of these things.” Or said another way, you can’t always control what happens, but you can always control your response to what happens. Every day, things happen that most people consider “bad.” A traffic jam, a coworker getting on your nerves, a setback on a project, a poor night’s sleep, a delayed flight, etc. And these “bad” things make us feel stressed, frustrated, and unhappy. But we don’t become stressed, frustrated, or unhappy because of these things. We become this way because of how we view these things. Our untrained minds are used to viewing life’s many inconveniences, challenges, and setbacks as negative. But there is no law of physics or the universe decreeing that a traffic jam, delayed flight, or failure must be bad. We just choose to believe these things are bad, and so our minds and bodies respond negatively. The solution is to flip the script. Flipping the script me
