29/2/24 Repetition is the mother of skills

 Changing a habit doesn't require intelligence.  It is happening at the motor sensory level.  That is why we need repetition to train the cerebellum to accept the new habit patterns.

I had a good serving of rice, fish, and veggies for dinner.  Then I followed with butter, fish oil, and black coffee.

This is the beginning of the Syaaban and Ramadan drive.  I hope by doing this, I can lose 10 kg by Syawal.

By the end of the 66 days, I hope to weigh 75 kg.

It can be done.  Just stop eating sugar and smoking cigarettes.

I definitely need to quit smoking.  Otherwise, I will eat into my savings, just because I smoke cigarettes.  On the other hand, should I choose not to smoke, I will save RM2k a year. 

No, I will not go broke because of cigarettes.  I got this...

What is a cigarette really?  It is none other than a feel-good feeling that I will get anyway, should I persist in not smoking.  All I need to do is hold on, let the chemical be released, and then wait until the body adjusts to the new level.

I just did that just now.  It is very important to let the sugar spike tapers off during the process.

---

In conclusion, I just ride the wave for the next 66 Days.  All it takes is 66 days.

Yes I can

Yes I can

Yes I can

I just reaffirm and reinforce every hour for the next 66 days.  Completely isolating myself from the thinking of the masses.

That's the way to do it.  By being in isolation.  Then I get to pierce the pinhole of mushin no shin.

In this case, there is no addiction.  It's just a matter of managing the Sugar Spike.

So I'm off to 85 kg by Syawal.

Now my perspective has changed.  I am now keen on running again and losing weight.

Tally ho ho!
