Recently I have discovered that I have injured/sprained/torn a muscle/sinew underneath my left shoulder blade, but here I am still considering if I should spend money to get it looked at next month. Sneezing has become a real pain, instead of a loud sneeze; it's a semi-sneeze followed by a loud grunt, and sometimes a few fist pumps onto the table in futile attempts to keep the pain in control.
This. The doings of willpower. The will to become physically able, one that perhaps has overstretch the current bodily limits of 100 push ups daily. But now I have a new fear, the fear of stopping; the fear of mediocrity.
It is only natural that I have arrived here at this point of the other extreme. I was physically mediocre last year after all. Nonetheless, I have since decided to make no qualms about it. I have also readjusted the regime to lesser count in attempts to allow room for recovery.
I will visit the physiologist that Andrew recommended anyhow next month. If this pain become a chronic permanent pain from delays, I will be damned. Best get it fixed early while it's still fresh.
Lately, there has been a spike in my peers venturing into business. To be more precise, personal sink-or-swim businesses. They play boss, and they play technician, and they play accountant, they play every aspect of that business. It's exciting to watch many of them bravely set sail. Here I am preparing my sail, in anticipation of my voyage to begin with a partner of mine.
This month, things have slowed down considerably. Given the year end 'winter' season of the freelance marketplace. Companies are consolidating accounts and preparing tax reports, hence they are less likely to sub jobs out to contractors. Fear not, we fare well still. Pity the growth rate has slowed though.
For the past 2 days, I've been forging a new product, and to my pleasant surprise I have again underestimated how a simple task can involve so many elements in play. Nevertheless, it was done just 3 hours ago and I look forward to creating the first prototype. Even though it is not perfect, I have given myself permission to launch this 'imperfect' product to touch base and test the unpredictable waters of public space.
Also, I'm very delighted at the recent arrival of my prototypes from Denmark! They looks splendid! Especially the gold-plated mask! Exclamation marks abound. I'm so happy with it that I keep staring at it whenever I get a break from working. The other 2 prototypes that once proven to work will benefit society, sounds far-fetched I know. But I'm confident it will, as long as I pull it off! Of the 2, one has failed; so I will proceed with testing the more complicated design. If that fails too, I will have to refine my ideas and consult more industry professionals when it comes to custom material casting.
All in all, I'm delighted at my progress. I shall keep moving.
