🌈 1290 – Sunday, 6 October 2024 23:48
London
Today, Sunday, felt like pure bliss—the day just flew by. I woke up early and had a great night’s sleep. I even remembered a dream when I woke up, but now it’s completely slipped my mind. I wish I had written it down while it was still fresh. It’s funny how, no matter how much you try to get done, it never feels like enough. I managed to reach 1,290 writings, yet it still feels like there’s more to do.
It’s a sense of relief, knowing that if nothing else, I’ve left some writing behind. Not for recognition or validation, but for the peace of knowing I did something. It doesn’t matter if anyone finds value in it or if no one relates to it. I did the best I could with what I had, and all I could offer was my time. Maybe somewhere, someone will feel a spark, thinking, “If this guy can put his thoughts out there, why can’t I?” So go for it—start today, start now. Write something. Even if it’s just a single word or a line. Do it now. Write. Come on!
Say “Hi” or “Hello.” Write “God,” “good,” or even just “The.” But do it now! Yes, right now—this is the moment to begin.
Or let me sing Sia’s song for you..
All smiles, I know what it takes to fool this town
I’ll do it ’til the sun goes down
And all through the nighttime
Oh, yeah Oh, yeah,
I’ll tell you what you wanna hear
Leave my sunglasses on while I shed a tear
It’s never the right time Yeah, yeah
I put my armor on, show you how strong I am
I put my armor on, I’ll show you that I am
I’m unstoppable I’m a Porsche with no brakes
I’m invincible Yeah, I win every single game
I’m so powerful I don’t need batteries to play
I’m so confident Yeah, I’m unstoppable today
Unstoppable today Unstoppable today Unstoppable today I’m unstoppable today
Break down, only alone I will cry out loud
You’ll never see what’s hiding out
Hiding out deep down Yeah, yeah
I know, I’ve heard that to let your feelings show Is the only way to make friendships grow
But I’m too afraid now Yeah, yeah
I put my armor on, show you how strong I am
I put my armor on, I’ll show you that I am
I’m unstoppable I’m a Porsche with no brakes
I’m invincible Yeah, I win every single game
I’m so powerful I don’t need batteries to play
I’m so confident Yeah, I’m unstoppable today
Unstoppable today Unstoppable today Unstoppable today I’m unstoppable today Unstoppable today Unstoppable today Unstoppable today I’m unstoppable today
I put my armor on, show you how strong I am I put my armor on, I’ll show you that I am
I’m unstoppable I’m a Porsche with no brakes I’m invincible Yeah, I win every single game I’m so powerful I don’t need batteries to play I’m so confident Yeah, I’m unstoppable today
Unstoppable today Unstoppable today Unstoppable today I’m unstoppable today Unstoppable today Unstoppable today Unstoppable today I’m unstoppable today!
Well done, Sia! It’s such a beautiful song. I’m sharing your lyrics because they’ve really inspired me.
I spent most of the day in class at Pimlico Academy, from 10 AM to 6 PM, immersed in various psychology modules. The topics covered included automatic writing, a fascinating technique that explores the subconscious mind’s ability to express thoughts without conscious effort, and the time distortion technique, which looks at how perception of time can be altered under certain mental states or therapeutic practices. It was an intense and engaging day, diving deep into these psychological concepts.
Throughout the day, I had a few meaningful interactions with my classmates, followed by a call with a friend. I also chatted briefly with my brother, sister, and mom in our family WhatsApp group. After class wrapped up, I headed straight home.
Cold, grey, foggy and just started raining in London today while I was on my way., home, sweet home, rested for a bit, dinner and now sitting down to write..
Around the world today
3 things I felt grateful for today
Grateful for the weekend that went smoothly.
Grateful working from had not been able to catch up with parents since being in the class, will ring them tomorrow.
Grateful that my first ad hoc teaching assistant work with adults went well this weekend.
What would it take for me and for you to wake up 10 x times bigger, thicker, more energetic, confident, happy, healthy, grateful make it to the gym in the morning, have a good workout, then catch up on call with parents, login in sharp at work, everything to be okay with family, friends and everyone around, then have a relaxing, relaxing, relaxing, yet a productive day tomorrow?
