Hi guys,
I am here on my pursuit for life and to succeed in all the difficult challenges I have set for myself both mentally, physically and spirituality.
This is not going to be a usual journal and it is not going to really involve women at all, so if you wanted to look at that side, my old journal is linked on to my signature, which should have more than enough in that area. This journal has been created to set my current state and progress to my goals every week. I always found this site very useful in this manner, so I think a weekly update here could be quite beneficial to me.
There also may be areas in my challenges that you guys may know a lot on, so I would appreciate any advice here or if you wanted to just leave a comment that is kool too.
Ok lets get this started.
Challenges
These are just some little hobbies I like but not too important and I do them for fun when I can.
- Learn to play numerous songs on guitar. I know how to a few chords, but at the moment with uni and such I don't have time for it. Maybe during my holidays I can.
- Becoming a really good dancer. Well I am lot better dancer than I use to be and I am currently taking salsa lessons, but still need to feel the music rather than just do the steps....U know actually dance.
- Becoming really good at pool. I am above average and win majority of my matches, but my ball placement isn't perfect and needs to be worked on and my spins as well.
- Become really good at massage. I would say I am pretty good at massage I took a 2 week course a few years ago and some other courses, it has also been a very useful tool as well in some instances. Think i may do a free 1 week course in the summer and that should do it.
- Rollerskating, haha this one is quite fun I do it once a month in a rollerdisco place, just trying some new tricks out when I come, but nothing too fancy yet.
Other than everything is good, I am in a relationship and I got a pretty decent job I enjoy that I work regularly but not too much.
I will list my weekly update down below every week, so this will not take much time, but allows me to record progress and see where I need to put more effort in.

Ok lets get this started.
Challenges
- To run a Marathon in Liverpool in October 2012 in 2 hours and 59 minutes. I have done a marathon in Scotland it took me 4 and 30 mins to complete, but i was on a 3 hour pace, but on the 14th mile my calf got tight and I had to limp run the rest. So i have to be able to maintain my speed all the way through it.
- London to Brighton cycling in June 2012. I have not really got a time goal for this one seeing I will be cycling with a friend, but anyway near the 4 hour mark is a good time.
- Track I am hoping in the next 3 years to get my time from 59 seconds in 400m to 49.9. This is definetly not going to be easy, but I am now actually properly training 2 times a week with a head running coach who is one of the best in the country.
- I am also hoping to do a Triathelon in 2013, I am doing all three sports, but I havn't got a time target for this one yet.
- My biggest challenge as of yet is to Swim the british channel, it will cost me like £2000 and I am going to train 3 years for this, this requires the equivalence of me swimming 1250 lengths in a 33m pool. Pretty tough...but it can be done with a lot of hard work and heart.
- Other goals is to get an extremely good standard in fencing and boxing along with a martial art like jiu jitsu. My fencing is pretty good and i have taught it in the past, boxing has only been taking to training as a hobbie for 3 years and no actual matches it has been a while since i boxed. Jiu jitsu, I have tried 2 times only, but really liked the level of intelligence of it as well as skill by using body weight and positioning.
ok lets get off the sport...
- 1st class degree in Psychology. I am currently a little bit under a 1st class for my second year at the moment, but I will work extra hard and average a 1st out and do good in my last year.
- Become fluent in spanish within 2 years, I have been learning for a year now and I am taking classes, so there is still a lot of work here. After this I will work on Portuguese and Italian seeing they are quite similar.
- I am also wishing to do some retakes in A level in Physics and Chemistry and get 2 A's. I like fitness and the mind, but I am a very scientific guy in heart and I apply principles from physics a lot during my life in sports and understanding. So I think they would look quite good on my CV and the knowledge alone is worth it. I may have to wait till my uni is over though, because it is quite a lot to do along with sports.
- Last challenge is to become a DJ and a leader of my own life. I am not talking about the girl aspect. I mean the mindset and the type of person that sticks to his values and dosn't change them for the values of others. The type of person who would stand for something even if that person stands alone.
