I’ll send you my Disney playlist 😅

On a serious note, I do have a playlist on Spotify named ‘Pick Me Up’. It’s a playlist I listen to when I need a mood adjustment 🫶🏻 My go to lately is ‘You’re the Best’ from The Karata Kid. 🎋

I love music and dancing. I still go to Zumba once a week during this test. I have to remember to listen to my favorite music when I am soar and tired and dance.

In my heart, I’m still looking for mp3s on Napster.

That is good advice. I will have to try it in sparring next time.

Being able to see ‘opportunities’ is such an important skill to have in a fight–and in life. It’s a trait is consistent amongst some of the most successful people that I know.

That was such a great act of kindness to the bird. They may have not lived if you didn’t help them. Thanks for caring for all living beings no matter what their size is.

That’s so cool! I want to come by and visit with my family.

I also have a hard time fitting everything in. I try and do a little bit at one time. I can’t do all my pushups and sit ups all at once. I break them up at different times of the day. Some days I can’t get in all the exercise I aim for. I try to do a little more on a different day. Do what you can at the times when you can.

Sometimes if you just take some time to yourself you can find yourself focusing on a solution faster. Maybe you can just read or meditate whenever you can, that is what helps me when I get stressed out sometimes. I’m sure you will find a way to work around your problem.

You’ve doing great getting into the dojo consistently to train given your distance of the commute! I’d recommend trying to get some sparring partners to stay after class with you every day you are in so you can keep up on your sparring rounds too!
