I am twenty-two years of age as of today and looking back on the last two decades and two extra years I find myself not looking back at much. The truth is that when I look at my life I find myself disappointed, extremely disappointed. I am not hugely successful with people, not particularly intelligent, I’m unfit and unhealthy, I’m bad with money, and I’m impatient. I can’t play any instruments despite owning several and I can only speak one language. I’m not well travelled and I have little knowledge of the world. What’s probably worse is that I have aspirations and never follow them through. My life up to this point has been a shambles, a shadow of a life, a pathetic excuse for a life, a waste of life. I intend to change this. I am giving myself one year and one month to take my life and make something of it. I will take the aspects of my life and myself and change them to how I want. No longer will I wallow in unmotivated depression but I shall now make a move on, reach for more. I honestly believe there is no greater thing a person can do than strive for more. So over the next year and a month I will waste less time on the Internet yet try to do more with my time on the Internet. I will learn a language. I will learn to use one of the many instruments I own. I will do more. Spend less. Eat well. Exercise. I will do a lot. I do not pretend that this is going to be easy or that change will come quickly, I know I must have patience and persevere. And I intend to update this blog, preferably everyday though not necessarily, to keep you up to date, to chart my course, and to keep me going. Over the next week or so I will be mainly setting those challenges that I will lay ahead of me. So wish me luck and I hope this inspires you to reach further.

Day Nine... I Think

First of all this is technically being posted on day ten so I appologise however I was again working. Now to move on today had me reading further and setting up my Dreamcast in my flat, something i will have to be careful with to merely enjoy from time to time and not to have devour my time. As I mentioned I also had work which was uneventful. What I have done today is looked at way that I can make myself more productive. I have decided that to increase organisation as well as productivity whsat I really need is to be able to have short term goals. Yes I want to have long term goals, and bigger things, but these things need steps towards them. What I have decided on is structuring around a weekly basis, not very innovative I know but something to work with. Therefore though I will continue to do my upmost to update this everyday I will have a weekly bigger update and I will only guarantee one update a week for my other blogs (though there is chance I will update them more often). The day that I shall do all this shall be TUESDAY!!! At least for now, if when university begins again I find myself heavily worked on a Tuesday I may choose to change that. I will also be making several other changes, though many have little loop holes and clauses. I will be giving up drinking on general social occasions, however I will be accepting special occasions and allowing my self to drink. I will be taking up little exercise regimes until I have decided whether to pursue a gym membership. I will be planning my days with a more precise and structured nature whilst accepting the possibility of change in areas. The majority of these things will come into effect immediately, though the greatest effect will be seen this Tesday when I outline my up and coming challenges and goals as well as highlihgting progress and other larger goals.
