Day 26

10:00 AM

Still waking up naturally. So far I usually wake up between 7.30 and 7.50, depending on the time I go to sleep. I find it easier to wake up naturally, than with the alarm. It feels more like a choice, not an obligation... That's what its all about, choosing. Choose how to feel, choose how to react, what path to follow, when to wake up, choose to be happy or not... It is all a choice. We make choices every day, we want it or not. Most of the time we are not even aware of it. When something happens that we don't like, we blame other people, environment, life itself... Everything and everybody, but ourselves. In reality, it is all our choice. Even the worse things that happen to us, things that we never wanted to happen, they are a choice... We invited them into our life. Whatever is going on in our life right now, we have invited. One way or the other, it is our choice. We constantly make our own sandwiches, and on the end of the day, we will eat them. It doesn't matter if we like our sandwiches or not, we will eat them...
Choose... Be smart and careful about it... Pay attention what kind of sandwiches you put in your lunch box...

                   " Celebrate any progress, don't wait to get perfect..."

This is one of the best quotes I have read in a long time. Inspiration in its true sense. If one can follow this quote, there would be no limit to what one can achieve... So simple, give your best in everything you do, and celebrate any little progress. Don't wait for the final result so you can look back, and then celebrate and feel good about it. Celebrate every day, every step of your progress. Love the journey not the final result... Live this quote, make it your mantra, and you will sit on top of the world. Whatever world that might be... Living this quote will only bring more good and more progress into your life. Why...? Simply because you are celebrating... Every day, every moment. You feel good. The more you feel good, the better your life will be. Feeling good will attract more good. If we celebrate often, we will attract more things for us to celebrate... So easy, and at the same time so hard for an average human... Just ask that inner question: "How do I feel right now...? Feeling good...? Ok great, keep doing the same...

11:00 AM

You know, after 26 days my cravings are almost non existant. I think about them here and there, but I can't call that a craving. Its just habitual thinking, with no real power to it... I truly thought that winning the battle against my cravings would be the toughest part of this journey. I used to talk to a lot of people who got rid of their unwholesome cravings, and they would all say that it was easy. I always thought: "Yeah right, you say that now..." Honestly, it is not that difficult. Easier than one would ever think... A little bit of focus and pure determination does the trick. Once you realize that none of that has to do with your body, that its all in your head, it becomes quite easy and simple....
Class went well.... 26th in a row... Hamstrings are tight... Energy is ever present... I still don't know why the f*** am I doing this... Good for me, I am at the right place then....
