The past week was not at all typical of my training weeks. There were more days where life intruded on my training schedule and I had to forgo push ups,sit ups and running in order to meet the other obligations (aka work responsibilities). Then at the time on Sunday evening that I would normally be sitting down to write my post, I was on an airplane from LA heading to Orlando. Strange time for s vacation you might say. But this is part of finding balance between martial arts and the other aspects of my life.
Every couple of years, my sister plans trips for us. Because of thstt, I actually get to spend time with her and I've gotten to go places that I only thought I'd ever dream about going to. We have such a great time together and the memories of our trips are some of the best ones I have. This trip was planned before I was even sure I'd be testing.
So this past week I had to cut myself some slack and accept that I was doing the best I could. This next week in Orlando I'm going to practice being present in the moment, enjoying my time with my sister, stepping out just briefly from the rigid training schedule with the intention that when I get back I'll be rejuvenated and ready to hit it hard for the remaining time before our test.
