Commenting

I've made a few comments on other's journals, and I'd like to share....

Other than that, there is also the update on my own progress...which is pathetic at best. My new plan, of course, fared no better than my last plan. I've got to do something much more solid, but I'll admit I don't know how...I'm going to look for a half marathon to run, or at least a 5k. I've got to have a deadline!

This is the video game script for Strings of Fate, which is a fanfic of my own collaborative work, Shades of Crimson (with a bit of Watchmen thrown in.)
Hope you like it!

A Second Wind

It seems this journey of mine is mostly made of short jaunts of keeping my goals, interspersed with areas of feeling, in general, rather poor about myself. Every time I slip into that phase, I pull back out by saying something to the tune of “I’ve got to get better! I know I keep failing, but not this time!!!”….and a week later…(or even a few days later)…I’m saying it again. It would be contradictory to the point of this post to say “But this time-”, wouldn’t it?

Then what should I say? Should I give up?….No, I can’t. Giving up on this is giving up on life…

It’s time for a new approach. Instead of “Go running every day or feel like shit!”, it’ll be “Go running three days a week, you pick the days you feel like it!” From there I’ll move forward, once I’ve come to look forward to going running, and I’ll run every weekday. Then I’ll attempt every day. I’ll do pushups and situps on the same days I run, as planned out by the spring fitness challenge that I found on a blog…that I’d link to if I had the link on hand.

This will be different. I swear it.
