Living the Moment and the Need for Change (An update)

 

Hey there, fellow bloggers and readers!

Realized today that I have 34 followers. Awesome! I would love to hear some comments/feedback on some of the articles I have written thus far. SVP 😀

Just got back from a 10 day trip to the Maritimes (PEI, Cape Breton Island, and Halifax) which was an amazing experience. Rented a car for a week, visited Charlottetown and Cavendish, took the ferry back across to NS and continued on to Cape Breton Island. We drove the Cabot Trail, visited Chéticamp and Pleasant Bay, did a few hikes along the way, took a detour to White Point, and found a Keltic Lodge. (All in the same day) Then we stayed at Cabot Shores Lodge for 2 nights in yurt. To top it all off, we spent 2 whole days in the city of Halifax taking the in the sights and sounds. (Pictures and video to follow…)

I have started a slow-carb diet called the 4-hour body by Tim Ferris. The basic rules are remarkably simple and easy to follow. For more details go to:

I made a few personal modifications such as berries and high quality beer instead of wine, but other than that, I have followed it to the letter. I have stuck with it for a month, alternating my cheat day from Wednesday to Saturday depending on the week. Starting to notice changes in my body including increased upper body strength and my abs are more defined. Looking forward to introducing this style of eating to my family. We will see how it goes. 😀

As you might have realized I am going back home to Northern BC. For the rest of the summer, I am going back to my “old” job and working on projects. Namely reconnecting with my family and preparing for school in September.

5 Big Projects this summer:

1) Run 5k without stopping

2) Bike 60 km without stopping

3) Swim 1km without stopping (Total Immersion Method)

4) Read the “Hunger Games” in french

5) Start an internet/marketing business using methods from the 4-hour work week.

Wish me luck, these are really big goals to accomplish in about 6 weeks.

Cheers,

Bill

    • Dear Forbidden,

      Thanks the comment! I love to hear from other bloggers. And thanks for the offer as well. I am just getting started with my new blog, http://www.yesmanimprov.com. It’s kind of a natural extension of this one except the focus will be on improvisation in order to improve communication/active listening. This one is more personal and I track goals and reflections here. 😀
