My girlfriend went home 2 days ago along with our daughter so I have my room all to myself again. It's been several years since I had my room to myself and I find it a good change. I can hear myself think again and ruminate on important things in my life which I have been doing for the past 2 days... So much so that I barely went out, only to go to the bathroom and pay for my takeout food ^^.

Lately I've been loosing motivation in working out, I've been working out in my room for more than 3 years now and I have plateaued in terms of muscle growth and strength gains. I've done a bit of reading on super sets and found videos on youtube by scooby1961 which were very informative and helpful. Basically he makes videos on how to workout at home using minimum equipment which was exactly what I was looking for. I tried out the chest super set he suggested (push ups to dumbbell flys to dumbbell presses), and I must say I've never worked out my chest so hard since I started working out which got me really excited again. Now I have a renewed motivation towards working out which I am really thankful for since body building has been such a positive driving force for me.

My job has become monotonous and mundane though it pays the bills. Yes people get discontented from time to time I think it's natural. But I decided to just put on my "workface" at specific hours in a day and make as much money with the least amount of effort as reasonably possible so I can enjoy the other things in life that give me happiness. Everyone has to deal with the monotony of everyday city life I am no exception, bottom line is to just separate the sections of my life and keep my eye on the prize. Whether it be body building, earning money, designing or what not.

Lastly I've pondered on how I deal with my temper and found that there is still a lot of room for improvement. I still have to learn to balance controlling my angst and releasing it through the right outlets e.g. working out, eating, confronting the parties involved. Though I've improved a lot especially when it comes to my daughter (I used to have little to no patience for children), thankfully when my daughter came into my life I've managed to turn it around just in time.
