The past has been a mint
Of blood and sorrow.
That must not be
True of tomorrow.

*As you start your second month of the year, hopefully everything has gone well. But if the past month or your past in general, has been a mint of blood and sorrow, remember that must not be true of tomorrow.

BODY

Warm-Up [] Ronda jogs on the treadmill for 20 minutes with a 2-pound dumbbell in each hand.

Arms [] With the same dumbbells, she throws uppercuts for 30 seconds, punches straight ahead for 30 seconds. Then she punches up at a 45-degree angle for 30 seconds.

Legs [] Ronda does a lot of stair work. She runs the Santa Monica Stairs—there are almost 400

Abs [] exercises in 3-minute rounds—crunches, oblique twists, planks—we hit it hard.

*Follow the above workout that made Ronda Rousey, at one time, “The Baddest Woman on the Planet”.

He feels he doesn’t want to be that guy who is known for bedding celebs anymore. He feels it’s getting in the way of him having a proper, meaningful relationship and Kabbalah is giving him the discipline to finally quit sex for a sustained period.

*Research Kabbalah and see if it can give you the discipline you desire.

MONEY

I was born in Northwestern Pennsylvania and lived in a trailer park. I was raised by very conservative and religious (Wesleyan Methodist) parents. By some miracle I graduated college and moved to Florida. I have been a public school teacher since 1995. I have 7 years until I can retire. I was married in 1999 and divorced in 2001. I remarried in 2017 to Kate - 21 years my junior. Some of my life experiences as a 46-year-old, white American male, will come through in my writing, but the majority of this daily journey will be dedicated to improving myself, and hopefully you as well.
