This advent I decided to use this time, as I prepare for Christ, to prepare my time better. I decided to write some SMART goals. One was, by the end of the first week I would restrict my worst apps - instagram especially - so I wouldn't scroll constantly. I also just listened to an episode of Pints with Aquinas with the founder of Shift. I don't think I'm ready for shift yet, but I restricted the apps on my phone (10 mins a day for all social media apps). Another SMART goal is to create a workout plan for jiu jitsu. I just started it but found that I have trouble retaining the info I learn in my classes. I came back on this app to keep myself accountable. If anybody else here has the same goal of getting better at BJJ, I'd like to connect! I don't want this to be another doom scrolling app but a tool to improve myself.

This is for the open minded Ok. What is the definition of a god? ( notice everything in the question take note of how I have it. I’ll have a follow up question and I’ll reference this first question.

15 minute body weight workout as part of the 62 Strong Challenge that started yesterday. Had to take some humbling “before” pics. 6:15 “heavy” session with my trainer this morning (bench, bicep curls, abs). Did another workout for the 62 String Challenge this morning. Definitely feeling it in my best and biceps. Will be sore tomorrow. 💪🏻
