Fluttering to fly but..Do I have wings?


Fluttering to fly but not sure if I am supposed to be a bird but I am going to try anyway

According to WHO (World Health Organization of 2013), female south koreans’  life expectancy is 84.6.

I am glad that I realize it not too late that the life is amazing thing that I can mold myself/my life just the way I want to with the right price, which could feel like suffer require  time and discipline, I decide to pay.

For me to truely believing in this and feel this way, looking back,  I think I went thru below steps and i believe few others that i did not listed.
 
1) You’ve got to make yourself genuinely believing in yourself and respecting and loving yourself.  

One of ways to make you to love yourself, at least it works for me, you need to play a bit rough with yourself.

First give yourself a chance to break the shell you’ve been reared up/protected from/by your family members and beloved ones

Second, accept yourself with all your weakness, shortcoming, as well as strong traits. Well this part will come with ages a little bit.

Third, continue to give yourself daily small challenging tasks(time to time big challenges as well) you must concentrate 100% to acheive and you are exposing yourself to witness you are winning over nature resistance. (e.g. like running. Running can be interpreted as constant fight against gravity to force speed. Yeah show the nature force of nature that you are the winner. )

from this sort of experience you will slowly believe that  you have the power to create changes against resistance and thus far you can create  ‘Miracle’ as long as you give 100% of your mind and discipline

One more, you got to be brave enough to accept the fact that whatever it happens in you or around your life your decision to respond to that whatever dramatic event will re-shape you and lead you to a new path.

so getting back to molding my own life, recently
I decided to get Personal Trainer certificate since Taking care of my physical and mind  fitness level  is one of things I enjoy in my life.

and i thought it will be amazing if i can help generate positive changes in others life doing things what i enjoy.
So I invested HKD 7,800 and my time to target to get certification of (NASM) National Academy of Sports Medicine from  which you are exposed to  comprehensive knowledge of  basic Human Body Science, movement science, Training program, nutrition, upto how to run your own fitness business.  It’s 5 weeks program with 3hrs lasting once a week workshop. After the workshop you got to pass exam to be able to obtain the certificate.

Yay, I achieved  ‘the certificate’ but nothing happened 5 days after earning it . I realize that I need to  traction if I want to make something happen in this area of my life since i am just So green in this.

I decided to dedicate 1year of my leftover 50 some years to learn more about human body, fitness, and how I would feel providing this service to fellow human friends.

Which means it will take my time away. Yes my some precious time wil be taken away for this goal.
I guess It’s nature to feel some resistance of the changes to my ordinary but only 1/50(2%) with a chance of I may really enjoy and it could be my unceasing source of joyment in 50 year.
12months go all IN! : D

Ok.  So this is my plan
1)      I offered a free session to a male friend I met at gym 60min lasting once a week session from Feb – Mid Apr.
2)      Next goal is finding another female human fellow to offer a free session of my trail from Mid May – Aug
3)      Also I am thinking of earning another certificate thai massage, or sign up for Nutrition course.
My adventure to New land just started. excited for the unknown! : D

why 10 km challenge early in Sunday afternoon? why not easy breezy cappucino with brunch?



I did my first 10 km at the Clear Water Bay with Romain Last Sunday Jan 13th, 2014.

It started with steep uphill of around 1 km which made me think is this is not even running.
It’s more like walking but much forced effort of running posture.

 Also I immediately think why people want to do this ‘Running” that make you feel out of breadth and muscles are forced to move when you get more gravity.
You just feel more how powerless and heavy you are against all the natural force on you.

But you move forward because you signed up for 10km. Your Central Nerve System decided that this is what you planned to do or want to accomplish.
And I need to wear a hat of conductor to manage my skeletal system and mind to be corporative to my conscious decision lasting 1 hour, only 4.2 % of 24hrs.

Often this does not limited to “Exercise” it extends to our daily life.
We plan things to accomplish to be a better person, or the person I want to be, to make our life more richer and fuller the way I want
But we hit the wall of natural force/resistance called habit.

And if we have less power to manage and control our skeletal system and mind to achieve what we want to achieve,
That’s the time when we start feeling losing control of our life. Feeling hopeless in your life. Feeling used by others. If you are not strong enough, it’s so easily influenced by others who are stronger then you and chances are you are creating more chance you will be used by other persons (unintentionally or voluntarily) or environment.

We are by product of time or environment. We are what we want to be.
I decide to train myself with this belief to practice to make my life filled with healthy, happiness, love and passion.
