Popeye

I’m currently feeling
Popeye.

My thoughts creating this feeling:
All but one of my meetings were cancelled yesterday meaning I could get on with some overdue coaching admin. Did manage a lunchtime walk listening to a comedy Podcast about Shakespeare which was informative, funny and light hearted. Made me smile. Home and straight into a new JWW cycle of workouts. The toughest so far. Who would have thought I’d bash out 100 loaded front squats and almost 100 press ups. I couldn’t do all the press ups but must have managed about 75 before my arms and shoulders felt like they were going to explode. Surprising how those two exercises along gets the heart rate up too. I felt my triceps and shoulders starting to ache all evening throughout ringing but made sure I rang heavier bells still. Sitting in the pub afterwards, I couldn’t stop feeling my upper arms and the muscle definition. Very exciting how my body will sculpt itself in the near future.

My extraordinary goal for the year is…
To be financially savvy again. Planning for early retirement by getting back on track with understanding my savings, investments and pensions.

What result will I produce this month?
Only presents for birthdays and Christmas from here to the end of the year.

My tasks for the day is…
A couple of meetings, if they don’t get cancelled. Prepping for tomorrow’s marathon standard operating policies session at Orsett. Another new JWW. No learners ringing this evening, so quiet and relaxing.

What thoughts are holding me back? 
Billy no mates in the office again today. Don’t speak to anyone face to face, only over Teams.

What thought will I practice instead?
I’m ok with that mostly. I like being on my own, able to get on without disruption.

What can I remove, elevate, upgrade or add to my style to embody my future self?
Cream silk skirt, burgundy wrap top, high boots. Gibraltar bracelet and garnet necklace and earring set. Girls getting another outing! Silky, feminine, sexy.

What can I remove, elevate, upgrade or add to align with my future self’s environment?
Maybe another luchtime walk. Trying a new smoothie recipe from the Body Coach app. Maintaining good eating and exercise habits.

What am I excited to practice and improve?
Focus, delivery, positive mental attitude.

My progress and my blessings
I’m pretty good at keeping myself positive and not letting too much bring me down. I never get to a point of total despair or breakdown. I can compartmentalise things and move on, sometimes quicker than others. I know this can be a difficult time for some.

What do I declare myself to be today?
Mrs Muscles.

What questions can I ask of myself today?
What can I accomplish when I put my mind to it?

What words of encouragement, insight, wisdom or humour does my future self have for me today?
I can accomplish most things when I put my mind to it. I can achieve success, completion and satisfaction.
