I'll admit I'm really bad at updating this thing, but to be fair its going to be one of my New Year's resolutions, not only updating this and another blog but I have lots of resolutions that pretty much will re-shape my life for the better. Main top ones, are take exercise and training seriously (hence the other blog) and my diet and over all lifestyle.
For example, Ive been gaming my ass off for almost a year straight in preparation for the Wii U launch back in November, so now that the Wii U has only a moderate catalogue of games, Ive found that Ill have more time to do things that arn't so game heavy oriented.
Things like music, exercise and working on my personal life. I intend to work out 4-7 times a week, including weights, bag work, elevation training, cardio and yoga. It sounds like alot, but I have it worked out so its not so strenuous on the body and mind. I intend to get in wicked shape with the Dolce Diet and use my elevation training mask to get the most out of my workouts. So with my exercise and diet plans Ill be in good shape right? Right. I'm doing it mostly for my girlfriend and to remind myself that at one time I had dedication to things like training instead of flopping on the couch turning on the Wii and eating a bag of chips and ripping Rockstars like it was water to a man in the desert.
Another perk to the diet program is that it requires cooking, so Ill be forced to go back cooking and not finding the easy way out of eating like fried chicken or hamburgers in town. So that will be my test of true dedication. As a Buddhist Ive realized I have terrible self control and seem to want things more than I need things. I haven't freed myself from want and desire lately, and I need to remind myself the true path of enlightenment is with truth, compassion, love and self control.
Which is the next point. My relationship with people has whittled to the point they are just FB names, or people I work with. Even my girlfriend has felt like a roommate or a business partner more than a loved one and that isn't right. So I will be putting in much, much, more effort this year and all years to come in that area in my personal life. Balancing my clan friendships and my home life can be tricky, but I wish to pursue both sides of it, and hope to find a happy medium.
Headshot the Hero WILL have an album out in 2013 even if I gotta cram it out in the last week in December. My co-writer Luke Knight has been patient and supportive more than anyone ever could be, and I thank him and love him for being there for me whenever I need him, even if he has his opinion on the supposed 'band'. I believe it will have some super great tracks and be an achievement in my dedication to music.
To sum it all up, I gotta start showing dedication to my trades, I need to sharpen the mind, strengthen the body, and hone the craft of music. I need to give myself to loved ones, and continue to walk the path of Buddha and remember that God has his plans for me. Some people have only need of one god. I have need of two. I need to continue my gaming and showcase the Mindesyn brand, but remember that I should be focusing on training, diet, and love more than prestiging in Call of Duty.
