I'm paraphrasing but the saying goes, "A truer measure of a man's character is how he acts when no one is watching." In my case 'when no one is watching' is to mean what do I do with my time during the day when the only person I'm beholden to is myself. What do I do when I'm totally self guided?
Secondly, in my circumstance I define 'acts' to mean not some moral code, but the physical tasks I choose to occupy my time. And possibly the inherent value they must have or not have based on my willingness to spend my time at them.
A majority of my days are "Rowdy" days and this is how I am choosing to spend this rowdy day:
-make bed
-put away clothes
-empty dishwasher
-take a shower
-eat breakfast of wheat toast, banana, fat free yogurt, water.
-50 jumping jacks, 20 push ups, 10 pull ups, 30 crunches
-shooting practice focusing on target transitions
-lunch date. Greek food.
-bike 10 miles around Lake Mirimar
-send off travel info to resort in Chile
-do three races in Moto Forza 4, I haven't played in a month!
-visit friends in Chula Vista/Eastlake
-dinner?
What do you think??????

Not too bad. However, if the true measure of a man is what he does when no one is looking then its possible that I am a materialistic hermit. However, people look at me at the mall and the people who work in retail do talk to me, and I am polite to them... That must count for something yah?
ReplyDeleteIf I had a truly free day, not a day off to go to school, I would fill that day with cleaning, swimming, and yoga. Not so bad me thinks.
i ended up feeling terribly sick to my stomach today. So I dropped the bike ride and the video games. I did add in getting my GoPro back from a riding friend.
ReplyDeleteDanielle, cleaning and swimming and yoga is a great day! i'm about to do a 'all you can eat' deal with a new studio by my house for $20 for a week just to check them out.
