On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

 

Totally missed the mark last night

Last night’s sleep total.

 

Totally missed the mark last night.

Most of my life i used an easy “fix” for a crazy-busy schedule (which is a daily occurrence).

Morning coffee.

Over time, what i created (and possibly you too) was a lifelong habit of sleep deprivation.

And over time, to keep up the “energy” during the day, i’d drink mid-day caffeine too.

The antidote that works for me is eight hours of sleep and a meaningful life-purpose.

Thank you running (and gym) for this gift.

Exercising isn’t about losing weight.

However, BMI is one of several key metrics affected by regular exercise.

Do you know your resting heart rate?

St Mary Lake
Not quite a mile away from the restaurant – the first stop on our tour, Wild Goose Island in St Mary Lake.

 

Intentional off day yesterday because it was Sunday. While our bodies rested, our spirits worked overtime.

The daily grind doesn’t need to be

The daily grind doesn’t need to be. For as long as i am able, i will take my seven daily prescription pills. Eventually, i may come to a fork in the road i never saw coming. Until then, seven pills a day.
