My Year of the Horse

I began logging last year for year of the horse  on February 1. This gives me a full year to January 31. They're were some requirements that I did not make they as follows.:

I did not memorize Mastery I read it many times and have recorded it and listen to it but did not memorize it

Tiger challenge. I did not participate in the tournament but I did score keep.  This was a fail

1000 rounds of sparing. I only recorded 779 this was a fail

Perform an act of kindness for a fellow team mate.  I worked hard on this and tried everything I could to do a certain act of kindness after I found out what this team mate was hoping to do.  I was not able to do this so a fail

One of my personal goals was to do an hour a week of exercise with my wife.  I failed on this one as we missed many weeks due to other commitments.  A fail. ( I think in the future a goal has to be something totally in my control.). Having said that is was not my wife that failed it was me.

Things that I did achieve


1009 acts of kindness logged. This is one I suggest you log everyday. It is difficult to remember these after a few days

52210 push-ups

52290 sit ups

1004 reps of long

1015 reps of stick 1 and 2

2244.9 km

I met or exceeded  4 of the personal goals I setfor myself


I was able to mend a very important relationship in my life. I fell the best about this accomplishment

The rest of the requirements is up to the team to decide if I met them

What did I learn

I learned this year that I have always had limiting thoughts in my head.  I have turned these thoughts around. I am at a point where Physically I know I can do more that I thought I just have to work consistently to achieve what I want.

I have a better concept about living in the moment means. I am continually working at actually living in the moment.   I think this will be an ongoing work in progress.
