Flu Attack!!!

Ah Choooo!!!! Arrrgggh what's that green slime coming out of my left nostril? Oh gosh, slight fever, sore throat and green slime? FLU ATTACK!!!


Just when my back is recovering and I thought I can continue my training this happens. It's definitely a blow to my training plans. Damm, I have made plans to do periodization training in the gym, I guess training just have to wait.

Training had been pretty inconsistent since my injury. Now flu had hindered my progress as well. Is this a test of my resolve? Is this an obstacle that I have to get through? Is this a test of my perserverance of the life style change?

I can give up, blame fate for that OR I CAN CHOOSE to rest well, eat plenty of vegetables, fruits and drink lots of water to combat the flu virus. I can choose to abandon my training and lifestyle change OR I CAN CHOOSE to persevere and continue the journey of lifestyle change and transformation.

I CAN CHOOSE and I WANT TO. I chose to be positive and look at the bright side of things. Perhaps it is a blessing in disgise as my back is not 100% recovered. Maybe I can take the time to heal completely before training again. The flu attack also made me realised how fragile we huamans are. It also made me realised how lucky I am living in a place where food water and medication are so easily available.



My short term goal now will be recovering and recuperating. Quoting from an old chinese proverb
"Resting now is to ensure you can walk further in your journey"
For now its good night everyone and don't let anything stand in your way towards goal.
