Ageing

What to do and what not to do. Some people accept ageing as a part of the life process while others don’t. Some people may even be happier as they age because they are living longer than some of their less fortunate friends. If they appreciate what they have rather than what they are losing, they will struggle less with the eventualities of life.

Your body and mind may not be what they were, and some decline is inevitable, but you can appreciate what you still have.

Staring mortality in the face is not an easy task. And it would seem natural to be angry, frustrated, upset, disillusioned and startled. It is hard to tell how you will respond to the situation when the endgame becomes obvious.

However, hold your chin up, enjoy what you’ve experienced and role model wisdom and appreciation rather than fear and panic. 10 billion people have gone before you and had to deal with the end one way or another. Take some time now to consider your viewpoints and make some plans. This will make the acceptance easier when the final curtain becomes inevitable.

The Art Of Sleeping Anywhere

Sometimes you just need rest. You need to reenergise. But you don’t always have a nice, comfy bed to sleep in. Can you sleep anywhere or only in a bed?

Over the years I’ve slept in some unusual places. And I have known people to be able to sleep wherever is necessary. Some people can fall asleep in the chair across from you, when the feeling hits.

Develop the art of sleeping anywhere. It’s a good skill to have. Whether it’s on a chair, on the floor, in a hammock, on milk crates, standing up, at a desk, etc., learn to do it where you can. When the moment comes that your brain or body needs rest, be practical with your surroundings.

Set Goals With Milestones

I did that this morning and it worked great! I was at a cottage and wanted to kayak to one end of the lake. So I set my goal and estimated time. Then I had some mini goals, or milestones, which I set.

In addition to these, I gave myself some MTO goals. This made it easy to bail out of the Outrageous goal, if I didn’t have the time or energy to succeed with it, but still feel good that I had surpassed my minimum goal or even target goal.

Each milestone I passed gave me more energy to complete the reducing remaining amount. I celebrated each one which kept me positive and determined, despite the intense sun, sore hands and arms and aching bottom.

Despite the headwind and frequent foot high waves, I pushed through and did the whole circuit.

It was a gorgeous, sunny day with fabulous warmth (28C). Blue skies were peppered with occasional clouds, one was even fish shaped.

Challenge Yourself

Every day should have one element of challenging yourself. Try making something new to eat or saying hello to someone.

The boys and I swam across the bay on this lake and swam back. Great challenge. Great achievement. Pick something every day that is outside your comfort zone and give it a go.

Clean Air And Water

Get away from the grime and pollution of larger cities. Get out into the countryside, hours from a major town. Smell the air, see the stars, taste the water.

Get amongst the trees and breathe in the fresh air, especially if out for a walk or swim.

You’ll love it. A few days and you’ll be fully refreshed. A week and you will be renewed.

Get On The Water

Get out on a raft, boat, yacht, SUP, kayak, canoe, pedalo, or pink flamingo. But get out there and mess around for some fun. Jump in the water for added cool.

It’s great exercise, fun and cooling on these warm summer days.

Time Zones

They are great to regulate time on planet Earth. But when you cross a few of them all at once, it can be hard on your system.

Some people find it easier going East, but most seem to find it easier going West.

Sometimes it’s just the circumstances you find yourself in. Work, packing, playing can all add to the challenges.

I’m feeling it at the moment. The gravitational pull of my bed is strong. Yet morning comes very early.

How do you deal with it?

Enjoy The Outdoors

Get back to nature. Go for a walk in the park, go camping or hike a big mountain like Mount Kilimanjaro. Big adventure or around the corner, getting closer to nature, and keeping your phone in your pocket, is a great way to relax and refresh.
