This week my coughing has stopped completely and my energy levels are returning. Of course work has been demanding as I have had to play catch up on alot of paper work and blueprint as-builts. I have just been helping with my sons yellow belt class and on thursday I felt like my old self. I had lots of pep and the class was awesome.
So today its back to Tai Chi and the fitness class. I know this time I'll be ok, I have been getting lots of rest and eating well, definately an improvement over the last 2 weeks. My numbers have fallen off due to being sick but I'm not overly concerned, I know I can slowly ramp my pushups and situps back up and catch the numbers up no problem. I regret mssing so many of my classes, but my wife put it in good perspective for me. I can't improve in my kung fu if i'm dead, couldn't knock her logic on that one. I have more to learn when it comes to listening to my body when I'm overdoing it. That's a work in progress. I know I'm not superman and sometimes I have to slow down and let my body recharge.
If anyone has any suggestions on what they concentrate on when it seems like there is not enough hours in the day I would love to hear your comments. Thanks in adavnce and see you in the kwoon.
Try not to be hard on yourself. Your living an extraordinary life thats packed to the rafters! As an orange belt I wouldn't have thought to take on as much as you have, your ahead of the game. Don't forget to take a little time for yourself- make it a goal so you don't have to feel bad about it, it's all about patience and progressing wisely.
