Ramadhan's Journal#8: Old Habits

-->



During Fasting: None(Recovery day)

After Iftar: None (Recovery day)





Today is my recovery day....A perfect break for stretches, with plenty of time to think of new ways to get me closer to my goal. I began shuffling memories and travelling back to past habits... By looking back, maybe I could find a key..





I remember doing this habit almost at the begining of every workout session, it is what I used to call "A moment of silence". Atif and Matt have taught me this for such a long time, they say it is essential not only to warm up the body at times, but to also condition the mind before the workout. It is simple, yet great in effect.



I close my eyes, and begin timing my body, "Ok the workout is going to be 45 min", and then run a mental slideshow of the exercises planned for the session, after that, I pick the peak times where I go full throttle, and select the perfect moments for recovery. That's called the planning stage.



After that I dive deep into the tunnels of my brain, recollecting every negative thought rooted from hate, stress, and depression, I line them up in a tight corridor with a hole in the end , and kick them off the edge one by one like the famous Spartan scene. Only the good thoughts are left now… Hope, Motivation, Love, and Greatness….



I open my eyes and the sequence is complete, every cell in my body will function according to the plan drawn in my head, nothing fits better to the mind than a plan and a goal and the body will serve, If not?! Can a blind lead the blind?!
