All this work has been destructive to the invoker.

October 2nd, 2007 by mike d. in Geekdom, A Day In The Life...

currently eating: pizza (not healthy)

Work and Academics have created a significant barrier to my levels of fitness.

Lunch: instead of going to the gym as I normally do… I’ve been working on work and working on homework

After work: instead of going to Kung Fu, I’ve been doing homework and going to class

It’s been really annoying. It’s like, I only have a certain number of skill points and I need to choose which abilities should be focused on. do I keep up with my academics and career? or do I get into super great shape. (pictorial representation of decision).

Writing this down has increased my determination to overcome this barrier. I will renew my efforts to maintain fitness, education, and career. I’ll let you know how it goes.

If you get really smart then you can date the really hot smart chick, but if you exercise a ton then you get to date the swim team coach. Or if you drink a lot of charm tea at the cafe then you can date the girl next door. Decisions, decisions.

Why did your charisma go down 1 point when you became fitter? I thought if you were fitter you were better looking (in general).

I figured a higher intelligence would result in a greater ability to speak fluidly and captivate people with your speech. Take Winston Churchill. Not in very great shape, but top notch charisma.

Devin’s view on Fitness:
Your body needs time to recover and rebuild. If you continually try to make greater gains without any “down time” then you are liable to get injured or just plateau (then again, you might become superhuman, but there really can be only one Chris Sharma).
I have found that sometimes I can dedicate more time to fitness than other times, and that creates a nature ebb and flow to things.
But then again, all work and no play makes Mike a dullard.
And forget about the gym, its a waste of time(money).
