My Master Cleanse CHALLENGE - Day 1

It just gone midnight.  Currently I feel a bit numb.  A few moments ago I sat watching a food program - just to ease the pain of not eating.  It was not that I was hungry but more that I cannot eat solid food for 10 days in a row!

Forced myself to go into work today.  Could have taken the day off - the excuse being, I might be tooo weak to work.  But money makes the world go round, right?  Need to pay bills! Dragged myself there.  It was a physically challenging job and the shop floor was extra busy.

I guess I made the right decision to go into work because it kept my mind off food.  It was so busy that I only managed to prepare my concoction of lemonade and cayenne pepper at 2:45pm during my half an hour short break.  However only managed to actually mix it with water at 4pm.  Only drank the hot lemonade drink at 5:30pm!  So I was pretty much a zombie when I walked to Trafalger square.

Had my drink on the bus, on my way home.  Every time I gulped down the drink, I received strange looks, people staring at the red mixture in my transparent protein bottle.  I guess I had forgotten how chilly cayenne pepper really was!  I put too much and boy was my belly and throat on fire!

Got so much to share but no time.  So, looking forward to Day number 2!

Where to, from here? -> The Wall

We're right at the beginning of the new year. You should be looking forward to it but you're not. You should be making some major changes that are so lacking in your character, but you're not. You should be taking the all important steps to bring stability and wipe away those debts but you don't. I hear you, it is not because you don't want to change things but you go on to explain that it's because you still don't have the tools to make the wrong in your life right. Last year you tried against all odd, eventhough you didn't have the so called tools or means to succeed, but you tried. You pulled yourself together and decided to change your LIFE! You had so much energy, so much drive. You had a few victories and these steered you on. Until, you came acoss some obtacles, you tried to look for the solution - to make this change happen- but none was within your reach. You knocked on doors until your knuckles turned white and bruised with fustration - mor...

Habits

There are good habits and there are bad habits.  Most of the time it's the bad habits that tend to infiltrate into our daily routines and they seem to stock to you stonger than superglue.  To take themout of your life takes more energy and determination than you can imagine. I read an article about habits in the Monthly FIA magazine which spoke about a young chap called Stefan who had struggled with a drinking problem for years.  His other bad habit was jumping from one girl to the next, as soon as he got what he wanted, he would move onto his next conquest. When he decided to change his habits, he realised that he had to change his environment first.  So he took a drastic decision of moving from sunny St Lucia to the icy cold England.  Leaving behind all his friends helped because they would have easily influenced him to go back to the destructive cycle of drinking and womanizing. You might be thinking well my bad habit does not hurt anyone.  I just arr...

Hello... Anybody There?

It's been a while, I know. Been meaning to write or at least upload my vlogs on here. Yet it has been me chasing time. Me against procrastination. Getting over the apparent wall, called the writers block. And the bottom line is: belief, self assurance and trusting your inner self. And above all trusting in God. For a while now, I have had the distinct urge to write, to document, to share my 2 cents with the world. Or a few who will somehow wonder onto this platform. So I decide right here, right now. To cut down dramatically my Netfliximg and chill time. And focus on my apparent calling. I have been put to the point of discomfort, when from time to time, I would hear deep from the inner realms of my being " write, go on, just write, you gotta write - now!"  Floating in and out of consciousness ideas and stories cry out to free themselves and be heard. Even if, just to seen by the write herself. Today I choose to brush aside the temporary discomfort of getting my w...
